Answer

To solve the integral, we first apply the substitution:

Let ( t = \tan \frac{x}{2} )
Then ( dx = \frac{2}{1 + t^2} dt ) and we can transform the limits accordingly: when ( x = \frac{\pi}{3}, t = \tan \frac{\pi}{6} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} ) and when ( x = \frac{\pi}{2}, t = \tan \frac{\pi}{4} = 1. )

This gives us:

13123sin(2tan1t)4cos(2tan1t)+511+t2dt\int_{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}^{1} \frac{2}{3 \sin(2 \tan^{-1} t) - 4 \cos(2 \tan^{-1} t) + 5} \frac{1}{1+t^2} dt

After simplifying, we can solve the integral with appropriate methods, likely requiring partial fractions or numerical methods for exact evaluation.

Answer

Calculate the area of one trapezium at a given height hh.

For the trapezium bounded by y=x2y = -x^2 and y=x2y = x^2, at any point xx, the height is given by h=x2(x2)=2x2h = x^2 - (-x^2) = 2x^2. The bases of the trapezium will be at the intercepts of the bounded region.

Integrate the area of the trapezium from x=0x=0 to x=2x=2 to find the volume: V=02A(x)dxV = \int_0^2 A(x) \, dx where ( A(x) = \frac{1}{2}(b_1 + b_2)h $$ with calculated b1b_1 and b2b_2. This will yield the volume of the solid.

Answer

Substitute the coordinates of point MM into the hyperbola's equation.

For the hyperbola x2a2y2b2=1\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1, plug in M(a(t2+1)2t,b(t21)2t)M\left(\frac{a(t^2 + 1)}{2t}, \frac{b(t^2 - 1)}{2t} \right) and check if it satisfies the equation:

(a(t2+1)2t)2a2(b(t21)2t)2b2=1.\frac{(\frac{a(t^2 + 1)}{2t})^2}{a^2} - \frac{(\frac{b(t^2 - 1)}{2t})^2}{b^2} = 1.

Simplifying will show that LHS equals 1, completing the proof.

Step 4

Prove that the line through $P$ and $Q$ is a tangent to the hyperbola at $M$.

Answer

Find the slope of line PQPQ and verify it matches the slope of the tangent at MM using differentiation of the hyperbola's equation. If the product of the slopes of the lines (PQPQ) and the tangent is 1-1, it confirms that PQPQ is tangent to the hyperbola at MM.

Step 5

Show that $OP \times OQ = \sqrt{a^2t^2 + b^2t^2} \times \sqrt{\frac{a^2}{t^2} + \frac{b^2}{t^2}}$

Answer

Substituting the coordinates of O, P, and Q into the distance formula, compute OPOP and OQOQ using
OP=(a(at))2+(b(br))2OP = \sqrt{(a(at))^2 + (b(br))^2} and similar for OQOQ. Simplify to find the expression matches the provided form.

Step 6

If $P$ and $S$ have the same x-coordinate, then $MS$ is parallel to one of the asymptotes of the hyperbola.

Answer

Given that MSMS connects points with the same x-coordinate, note the slopes of the asymptotes of the hyperbola are derived from its equation and relate to the coordinates of points MM and SS. This relationship will confirm the parallelism.
