1. a 和 b 属于两份不同的作业，请用不同页面的作业纸。
2. 字迹不得过于潦草。
3. 记得抄题并以题目答案，题目答案的方式呈现你的作业，而不是先抄完题目，才来一次过
作答。

另外，没有遵守以下规则会导致你的作业分被扣分：

3.4a

1. The figure shows the curve 𝐶: 𝑦 2 = 4𝑥. 𝑀 is a fixed point on

the 𝑥 − axis such that the distance of 𝑀 from the vertex 𝑂 is
3 units. Let 𝑁 be a variable point on 𝐶 such that its
𝑥 − coordinate is 𝑥. Find the coordinates of 𝑁 when the
length of 𝑀𝑁 reaches its least possible value.

2. A cone whose slant edge has a constant length 𝑎, 𝑎 being a constant. Let ℎ be the height of the
cone.

a. Express 𝑉, the volume of the cone, in terms of ℎ.

b. Find the maximum volume of the cone.

3.4b

1. A piece of land is to be fenced in the form of a right angled triangle

with the wall as its hypotenuse as shown in the figure beside. C
Given that the total length of 𝐴𝐵 and 𝐴𝐶 is 20𝑚, 𝐴𝐵 = 𝑢 𝑚 and wall
𝐴𝐶 = 𝑣 𝑚.

a. Show that the area of the triangle is given by

1
𝐴 = 10𝑢 − 2 𝑢2 . A B
b. Find the largest possible value of the area.

2. A trough for holding water is be formed by taking a piece of sheet metal 60 cm wide and folding
the 20 cm on either end up as shown below. Determine the angle 𝜃 that will maximize the
amount of water that the trough can hold.
