PAPER 1
Arithmetic and geometric series

Proof 1: Prove that the sum of terms of an arithmetic sequence is given by the formula:
n
Sn [2a (n 1)d ]
2
Sn a (a d ) .....a (n 1)d

Sn [a (n 1)d ] [a (n 2)d ] .... a

2S n 2a (n 1)d .....2a (n 1)d

2S n n[2a (n 1)d ]

n
Sn [ 2a (n 1)d ]
2
Prove 1 (alternative):
The general term (last term) of an arithmetic series is Tn = a + (n 1)d = l
Sn = a + [a + d] + [a + 2d l d] + l

In reverse: Sn = [a + (n 1)d] + [a + (n 2)d] + [a + (n 3)d a + d] + a

Sn = l + [l d] + [l 2d] + . . . + [a + d] + a

Adding equation 1 and equation 2:

2Sn = [a + l] + [a + l] + . . . + [a + l] to n terms
2Sn = n[a + l]
n
Sn = [ a l ]
2
n
Replacing l with a + (n 1)d: Sn = [2a (n 1) d ]

Proof 2: Prove that the sum to n terms of a geometric sequence is given by:
a(r n 1)
Sn ; r 1
r 1

Sn a ar ar 2 ......... ar n 1

4. The inscribed angle subtended by the diameter of a circle is a right angle.
( in semi circle)

Given AB, the diameter of the circle passing through centre M.

In the sketch AB is the diameter of the circle.

Therefore ACB 90 (angle in semi circle)

5. If the angles subtended by a chord (or arc) of the circle are on the same side of the
chord (or arc), then the angles are equal. (Reason: s in same segment)

Given : Circle O with inscribed angles A and B subtended by chord DC.

Required : Prove that A B
Construction : Draw central angle DOC .
1
Proof : A DOC (angle at centre = 2 angle circumference)
2
1 (angle at centre = 2 angle circumference)
B DOC
2
A B

We can deduce from this theorem that if angles at the

circumference of a circle are subtended by arcs (or chords)
of equal length, then the angles are equal.

6. The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary (together 180º).

Given : Circle M with cyclic quadrilateral ABCD .

Prove : (a) A C = 180°

(b) ABC ADC = 180°
Construction : Draw BM and DM .

Proof : M1 2 A (angle at central = 2 × angle circumference)

M1 M 2 2( A C )

But M1 M 2 360

Therefore A C = 180°
But ABC ADC A C = 360º ( angles of quadrilateral )
Therefore ABC ADC = 180º

Grade 11 Sine, Cosine and Area Rules

Memorise the following diagram we will use this to prove each rule.

We place the triangle so that A is at the origin, and B is on the x-axis. As usual, we say that the length of
BC is a, AC is b, and AB is c.

This means that we can find the coordinates of A, B, and C:

A = (0; 0)
B = (c; 0)
C = (b cos A ; b sin A )

Area Rule Proof:

1
Area of ABC base perpendicular height
2
1
Area of ABC c b sin A
2
1
Area of ABC bc.sin A
2

Similarly, we can rearrange the triangle in the diagram to obtain:

1
Area of ABC ab.sin C
2

1
Area of ABC ac.sin B

Note that in an exam it is acceptable to prove the Sine Rule without proving the Area Rule first
however, you must say that you are using the Area Rule, and you should include your diagram.

Cosine Rule Proof:

The Cosine Rule is proved by looking at the lengths of the sides of ABC.
Using the distance formula that we have from analytical geometry we get that:

2 2
a b cos A c b sin A 0

a b 2 cos 2 A 2bc cos A c 2 b 2 sin 2 A
