10(i)

1. Apply the product rule to differentiate $y = 4x \sin 2x$

Let u=4xu = 4x and v=sin⁡2xv = \sin 2x.
Then dudx=4\frac{\mathrm{d}u}{\mathrm{d}x} = 4 and dvdx=2cos⁡2x\frac{\mathrm{d}v}{\mathrm{d}x} = 2 \cos 2x.
Using the product rule dydx=udvdx+vdudx\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = u \frac{\mathrm{d}v}{\mathrm{d}x} + v \frac{\mathrm{d}u}{\mathrm{d}x}:
dydx=(4x)(2cos⁡2x)+(sin⁡2x)(4)\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = (4x)(2 \cos 2x) + (\sin 2x)(4)

2. Simplify the expression to the required form

dydx=8xcos⁡2x+4sin⁡2x\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = 8x \cos 2x + 4 \sin 2x
(This is in the form axcos⁡2x+bsin⁡2xax \cos 2x + b \sin 2x with a=8a = 8 and b=4b = 4)

Answer

dydx=8xcos⁡2x+4sin⁡2x\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = 8x \cos 2x + 4 \sin 2x

10(ii)

1. Evaluate the derivative $\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}$ at $x = \frac{\pi}{2}$ using the result from part (i).

From part (i), dydx=8xcos⁡2x+4sin⁡2x\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = 8x \cos 2x + 4 \sin 2x.
When x=π2x = \frac{\pi}{2},
dydx=8(π2)cos⁡(2×π2)+4sin⁡(2×π2)\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = 8\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) \cos\left(2 \times \frac{\pi}{2}\right) + 4 \sin\left(2 \times \frac{\pi}{2}\right)
=4πcos⁡π+4sin⁡π= 4\pi \cos \pi + 4 \sin \pi
=4π(−1)+0=−4π= 4\pi(-1) + 0 = -4\pi

2. Apply the chain rule to find the rate of change of $y$ with respect to time.

Given dxdt=25\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t} = \frac{2}{5}.
Using the chain rule, dydt=dydx×dxdt\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}t} = \frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} \times \frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t}
dydt=−4π×25=−8π5\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}t} = -4\pi \times \frac{2}{5} = -\frac{8\pi}{5}

Answer

−8π5-\frac{8\pi}{5} units per second

10(iii)

1. State the derivative from part (i) and express it as an integral equation

From part (i), ddx(4xsin⁡2x)=8xcos⁡2x+4sin⁡2x\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}(4x \sin 2x) = 8x \cos 2x + 4 \sin 2x.
Integrating both sides with respect to xx:
∫(8xcos⁡2x+4sin⁡2x)dx=4xsin⁡2x+c\int (8x \cos 2x + 4 \sin 2x) \mathrm{d}x = 4x \sin 2x + c
8∫xcos⁡2xdx+∫4sin⁡2xdx=4xsin⁡2x+c8 \int x \cos 2x \mathrm{d}x + \int 4 \sin 2x \mathrm{d}x = 4x \sin 2x + c

2. Rearrange to make the required integral the subject and apply limits

8∫π4π2xcos⁡2xdx=[4xsin⁡2x]π4π2−∫π4π24sin⁡2xdx8 \int_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} x \cos 2x \mathrm{d}x = \left[ 4x \sin 2x \right]_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} - \int_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} 4 \sin 2x \mathrm{d}x

3. Evaluate the integrated terms

[4xsin⁡2x]π4π2=(4(π2)sin⁡π)−(4(π4)sin⁡π2)\left[ 4x \sin 2x \right]_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} = \left( 4\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) \sin \pi \right) - \left( 4\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) \sin \frac{\pi}{2} \right)
=0−π(1)=−π= 0 - \pi(1) = -\pi

∫π4π24sin⁡2xdx=[−2cos⁡2x]π4π2\int_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} 4 \sin 2x \mathrm{d}x = \left[ -2 \cos 2x \right]_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}}
=(−2cos⁡π)−(−2cos⁡π2)= (-2 \cos \pi) - \left(-2 \cos \frac{\pi}{2}\right)
=−2(−1)−0=2= -2(-1) - 0 = 2

4. Solve for the final integral

8∫π4π2xcos⁡2xdx=−π−28 \int_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} x \cos 2x \mathrm{d}x = -\pi - 2
∫π4π2xcos⁡2xdx=−π−28=−π+28\int_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} x \cos 2x \mathrm{d}x = \frac{-\pi - 2}{8} = -\frac{\pi + 2}{8}

Answer

−π+28-\frac{\pi + 2}{8}

10(iv)

1. Interpret the negative result of the definite integral from part (iii)

Since the evaluated definite integral ∫π4π2xcos⁡2xdx\int_{\frac{\pi}{4}}^{\frac{\pi}{2}} x \cos 2x \mathrm{d}x is negative, the area bounded by the curve and the xx-axis in this interval lies below the xx-axis.

Answer

The negative value of the integral implies that the curve y=xcos⁡2xy = x \cos 2x lies below the xx-axis for π4<x<π2\frac{\pi}{4} < x < \frac{\pi}{2}.
