2010 Set B Paper 3 RVHS Promo (Solutions)

The document contains solutions to math problems involving algebra, linear equations, trigonometric functions, and vectors. It begins by proving that a recursive sequence satisfies a given formula. It then finds the solution set of a quadratic equation by setting its discriminant greater than or equal to 0. Finally, it derives Taylor series approximations for inverse trigonometric functions and uses vectors to analyze problems involving points, lines, and planes.

Given u1 2 , un 1 4un 15 for n

Let P(n) be the statement that un 3 4 5 , for n


For P(1),
L.H.S. = 2 (given)

R.H.S. = 3 4 5 2
L.H.S.=R.H.S. P(1) is true.
Assume that P(k) is true for some k ,
