Solution

S n = cos a + cos(a + b ) + cos(a + 2 b ) + ....... + cos(a + n - 1b )


Multiply both sides by 2 sin b

5.0 Aims and Objectives We are going to study the concept of Scalar and Vector point functions, differential vectors in detail.

5.1 Scalar and Vector point functions differential vectors 5.1.1. Scalar point function Let A be any subset of the set of real numbers. If to each element a of A, we associate by some rule a unique real number f(a), then this rule defines a scalar function of the scalar variable a. Here f(a) is a scalar quantity and therefore f is a scalar function. 5.1.2. Vector point function Let A be any subset of the set of real numbers. If to each element a of A, we associate by some rule a unique vector f (a ) , then this rule defines a vector function of the scalar variable a. Here f (a ) is a vector quantity and f is a vector function. 5.1.3. Derivative of a vector function with respect to a scalar Let r = f (t ) be a vector function of the scalar variable t.

are denoted by r , r .

5.1.4. Some results on differentiation of vectors. Let a, b, c be differentiable vector function of a scalar t. let f be a differentiable scalar point function of the same variable t , then a.

5.1.5. Derivative of a constant vector. A vector is said to be constant only if both its magnitude and direction are fixed. Let r be a constant vector function of the scalar variable t Let r = c ;
c is a constant vector

\ r +dr = c \ r +dr - r = 0
dr =0

5.1.6 Derivative of a vector point function in terms of its components

Let r = xi + y j + z k where x, y, z are scalar functions of the sector variable t. Then Results (1) The necessary and sufficient condition for the vector point function a (t ) to be constant is that

d r dx dy dz = i+ j+ k dt dt dt dt

da =0 dt

Proof :
d d da a da = da da + a + dt dt dt dt dt dt

d2a = a 2 dt

{\ a a = 0}

2. The necessary and sufficient condition for the vector a (t) to have a constant direction is a

7.1. Integration of Vectors Line Integral Let f ( x, y, z ) be a vector point function defined through out some region of space then

f .dr is defined as the line integral of

f along C. Where C is any curve in that

region. Also

f .d r is called the tangential line integral over C from A to B.

Let f = f1 i + f 2 j + f 3 k

7.2. Surface Integral In order to evaluate surface integrals it is convenient to express them as double integrals taken over the orthogonal projection of the surface S on the line of coordinate places. Let S be a given surface. Let f be the vector point function. Let n be the unit outward drawn normal vector to the surface S. Then the surface integral is defined as

7.3. Volume Integral Let V be a volume bounded by a surface suppose f(x,y,z) is a single valued function of position defined over V. Then

f ( x, y, z )dv is defined as a volume integral.

If we sub divide the volume V into small cuboids by drawing lines parallel to the three co-ordinate axes, then dv = dxdydz and the volume integral becomes

f ( x, y, z )dxdydz

9.0Aim and Objectives


In this lesson we are going to study about the fourier series which is a trigonometric series defined in various intervals (viz) (0,2B) (- B , B ) (0,2l), (- l,l) and cosine and sine series of f(x) defined in (o,l). 9.1 Fourier Series: A trigonometric expression of the form f ( x) =
an + an cos nx + bn sin nx is 2 n =1 n =1

called a Fourier expansion of f(x) where f(x) is defined in a specified internal. a0 , an , bn are called Fourier Coefficients: Model :1 Let f(x) be defined in the interval (0,2p ) . Then its fourier expansion is given by

In this lesson we are going to learn about the concept of the polar coordinates, converting the castesian system to polar system, polar of a straight line, circle, a concern. 10.1 Analytical Geometry 10.1.1. Polar coordinates: We shall study another type of coordinates called polar coordinates to represent plane curves. By this system of coordinates, any point P is specified by its distance from a fixed point O and the angle made by the join of P and O with a fixed line out.

P r

0 Fixed line A

The point P is represented by the polar coordinate P(r, ); OP = r is called the radius vector and is called the vectorial angle. The radius vector is considered positive if measured from O along the line bounding the vectorial angle and negative in the opposite direction.

In this lesson we concentrate on the concept of the equations of a straight live, sphere, including the fundamental of the planes and straight lives. Also we study the shortest distance between two lines.

Results: 1) The distance between two points A(x1 ,y1 ,z1 ) and B(x2 ,y2 ,z2 ) is
AB = ( x 2 - x1 ) 2 + ( y 2 - y1 ) 2 + ( z 2 - z1 ) 2

2) If a straight line makes angles a , b , g with the coordinate axes, then the direction cosines of the line are defined as cos a , cos b , cos g . These are denoted by l , m, n . Note that l 2 + m 2 + n 2 = 1. 3) If OP = xi + y j + z k , then the direction cosines of OP are
x , y , z

OP OP OP

4) A set of numbers a,b,c which are proportional to he direction cosines l,m,n of a line are called the direction ratios of that line.

5) The equation of a straight line passing through a point (x1 ,y1 ,z1 )having direction ratios l,m,n is

x - x1 y - y1 z - z1 = = l m n

x - x1 y - y1 z - z1 = = x 2 - x1 y 2 - y1 z 2 - z 1
7) The direction ratios of the straight line joining the points A(x1 ,y1 ,z1 ) and B(x2 ,y2 ,z2 ) are

x 2 - x1 , y 2 - y1 , z 2 - z1
8) The condition for the lines

11) Two planes intersect on a straight line. The general equation of a plane is of the form ax+by+cz+d=0. a,b,c are called the direction rations of the normal to this plane. 12) Equation of any plane passing through the point (x1 ,y1 ,z1 ) is a(x- x1 ) + b(y-y1 ) + c(zz1 ) = 0. 13) Angle between two planes is defined as angle between their normals. Let the equations of two planes be a1 x+b1 y+c1 z+d1 =0 and a2 x+b2 y+c2 z+d2 =0 a). Then the angle between them is

14.0 Aims and Objectives In this lesson we are going to study about use definition coin cord which is a new concept, the standard equation of coin cord, tangent plane, enveloping cone, director sphere. 14.1 Concicoids The general equation of second degree in x,y,z ie.
f ( x, y, z ) = ax 2 + by 2 + cz 2 + 2 fyz + 2 gzx + 2hxy + 2ux + 2vy + 2 wz + d = 0

represents a locus called a coincoid or a quadric. Note: (1) The equation of a conicoid contains only line disposable constants (2) We can reduce this equation to some standard form by the suitable change of the axes. In other words, we know a conic is intersected by a straight line at two points.
\ The curve of intersection of a plane and a quadric surface is a conic. \ Quadric surfaces are called coincoids

Centre of the coincoid: If every chord of the conicoid passes through the origin , it is called the centre of the coincoid central conicoid. The conic having a centre is called a central conicoid.

14.2. Nature of a conicoid: The standard equation of a central conicoid is ax 2 + by 2 + cz 2 = 1 This represents i) an ellipsoid if a,b,c are all positive ii) a hyperboloid of one sheet if two are positive and the one is negative. (iii)a hyperboloid two sheets if two are negative and one positive. (iv) a virtual ellipsoid if all are negative. Note (1). The conicoid ax 2 + by 2 + cz 2 = 1 has origin as centre (2). The equation ax 2 + by 2 + cz 2 = 1 is called the standard equation of the conicoid. 14.3. Enveloping cone The locus of the tangent lines drawn from a given point to a given conicoid is a cone called the enveloping cone of the conicoid or tangent cone of the concoid having the given point as its vertex. 14.4. Examples (1) Find the equation of the enveloping cone of the conic coid ax 2 + by 2 + cz 2 = 1 with its vertex at A(x1 ,y1 ,z1 ) Solution: The equation of the conicoid is
ax 2 + by 2 + cz 2 = 1

---(1)

Let A be the point (x1 ,y1 ,z1 ) Equation of any line through A(x1 ,y1 ,z1 ) is

x - x1 y - y1 z - z1 = = = R (say) l m n
Any point on (2) is ( x1 + Rl ), y1 + Rm, z1 + Rn) If this point lies on (1), then
a ( x1 + Rl ) 2 + b( y1 + Rm) 2 + c( z1 + Rn) 2 = 1

---(2)

R 2 ( al 2 + bm 2 + cn 2 ) + 2 R ( alx1 + bmy1 + cnz1 ) + ( ax1 + by1 + cz1 ) = 0

The line (2) is a tangent line to (1)

Which is the required equation. Tangent plane (2) Find the equation of the tangent plane at (x1 ,y1 ,z1 ) of the conicoid ax 2 + by 2 + cz 2 = 1 Solution: The equation of the central conicoid is ax 2 + by 2 + cz 2 = 1 ---(1) Equations of any line through (x1 ,y1 ,z1 ) is

x - x1 y - y1 z - z1 = = = R (say) l m n
