Chapter 6 Further algebra Why itis important to understand: Further algebra ‘The study of algebra revolves around using and manipulating polynomials. Polynomials are used in engineering, computer programming, software engineering, in management, and in business. Mathemat cians, statisticians and engineers of all sciences employ the use of polynomials to solve problems; among them are aerospace engineers, chemical engineers, civil engineers, electrical engineers, environmental engineers, industrial engineers, materials engineers, mechanical engineers and nuclear engineers. The factor and remainder theorems are also employed in engineering software and electronic mathematical applications, through which polynomials of higher degrees and longer arithmetic structures are divided without any complexity. The study of polynomial division and the factor and remainder theorems is therefore of some importance in engineering, 6.1 (5) Subtract 16 from 20 giving 4 (6) Bring downthe 8 [tore looking at long division in algebra let us revise (7). 16divided into 48 goos 3 times Jong division with numbers (we may have forgotten, (8).

Gi) cam Solving quadratic equations Why itis important to understand: Solving quadratic equations Quadratic equations have many applications in engincering and science; they are used in deseribing the trajectory of a ball, determining the height of a throw, and in the concept of acceleration, velocity, ballistics and stopping power. In addition, the quadratic equation has been found to be widely evident in a number of natural processes; some of these include the processes by which light is reflected off a Jens, water flows down a rocky stream, or even the manner in which fur, spots, or stripes develop on wild animals. When traffic policemen arrive at the scene of a road accident, they measure the length of the skid marks and assess the road conditions. They can then use a quadratic equation to calculate the speed of the vehicles and hence reconstruct exactly what happened. The U-shape of a parabola can describe the trajectories of water jets in a fountain and a bouncing ball, or be incorporated into structures like the parabolic reflectors that form the base of satellite dishes and car headligh!s. Quadratic functions can help plot the course of moving objects and assist in determining minimum and maximum values. Most of the objects we use every day, from cars to clocks, would not exist if someone somewhere hadn't applied quadratic functions to their design. Solving quadratic equationsis an important skill required in all aspects of engineering. A quadratic equation Is one In which the highest Power of the unknown quantity is 2. For example, Tracers: et tetene eal +1 =0 isa quadratie equation There are four methods of solving quadratic {As stated in Chapter 8, an equation is a statement equations that two quantities are equal and 10 *solve an equa- These are: (i) by factorisation (where possible) tion’ means “to find the value of the unknown" Gi) by *completing the square’ The value of the unknown is called the root of the Gii)_by using the ‘quadratic formula? equation or G9) _graphteally Gee Chapter 3, aa You have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this book. aa You have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this book. aa You have either reached a page that is unavailable for viewing or reached your viewing limit for this book. 94 Engineering Mathematics ‘Adaing to both sies tha ewetticient of 2)? gives ast -C)- ‘The LHS is now a perfect squat, thus: 8 7 Fhe 16° 16 Taking the square root of both sides gives: =L031 jue,x 1.22 or 3.28, correct to 3 significant figures, Problem 8, By ‘completing the square’, solve the ‘quadratic equation 4.6)" 3.3y~1.75=0, correet 10 3 decimal places Making the coefiicient of y? unity gives: 33175 2 v+a6"" G6 7° 35. _ 15 and rearranging gives: y?4 5 ing gives: y+ Zy= p> Adding to both sides thalf the coefficient of 3)? gives: 45 467 The LHS is now a perfect square, thus: 35)?

Thanks to engineers, robots have migrated from factory shop floors - as industrial manipulators, to outer space ~ as interplanetary explorers, to hospitals - as minimally invasive surgical assistants, to homes - as vacuum, cleaners and lawn mowers, and to battlefields - as unmanned air, underwater, and ground vehicles. Arithmetic progressions are used in simulation engineering and in the reproductive eycle of bacteria, Some uses of AP's in daily life include wniform increase in the speed at regular intervals, completing patterns of objects, calculating simple interest, speed of an aircraft, increase or decrease in the costs of g00ds, sales and production, and so on. Geometric progressions (GP"s) are used in compoun and the range of speeds on a drilling machine. In fact, GP"s are used throughout mathe: they have many important applications in physics, engineering, biology, economics, computer science, queuing theory, and finance. In this chapter, AP"s, GP's, combinations and permutations are introduced and explained.

There are so many examples where triangles are involved in engineering, and the ability to solve such triangles is of great importance. Sine rule With reference to triangle ABC of Fig. 25.1, the sine To ‘solve a triangle’ means ‘to find the values of rule stales: unknown sides and angles’. If a triangle is righ a8 & angled, trigonometric ratios and the theorem of fai aa Pythagoras’ may be wsed for its solution, as shown in Chapiet 22, However, for nom-right-angled triangle, trigonometric ratios and Pythagoras’ theorem cannot be used. Instead, Wo rules, called the sine rule and (2) side and any 2 angles are initially given, oF cosine rule, are used.
