(i)

Show on an Argand diagram the locus of points given by the values of  satisfying

      where 

The set of points A is defined by

(i)

Show, by shading on your Argand diagram, the set of points .

(ii)

Find the exact area of the region defined by , giving your answer in simplest form.

Figure 1 shows a sketch of two curves  and  with polar equations

The region  lies inside  and outside  and is shown shaded in Figure 1.

Show that the area of  is

where and  are integers to be determined.

Figure 1 shows the design for a table top in the shape of a rectangle . The length of the table, , is 1.2 m. The area inside the closed curve is made of glass and the surrounding area, shown shaded in Figure 1, is made of wood.

The perimeter of the glass is modelled by the curve with polar equation

where  is a constant.

Show that

Hence, given that  = 60 cm,
