5)The position of two towns A and B are (50°N,45°W) and (50°N,K°W) respectively.It takes a plane 5 hours to travel from A to B at an average speed of 800knots.The same plane takes 1 and 1/2 hours to travel from B to another town C at the same average speed.Given that C is to the north of B,calculate to the nearest degree;
a)The value of K
b)The latitude of C

1) Let's analyze each part of the figure separately:

a) In triangle BED, we have:
Angle BED = 50°
Angle EDB = 180° - BED - DEF = 180° - 50° - 35° = 95°
Since ABC is a tangent, angle ECB = angle EDB = 95°

In triangle CEB:
Angle ECB = 25°
Angle CBE = 180° - ECB - EBC = 180° - 25° - 90° = 65°

Now, we know that in triangle CDE:
Angle DCE = 180° - CBE = 180° - 65° = 115°

Since DE is a straight line, angle DEC = 180° - 115° = 65°

Finally, in triangle DFE:
Angle DEF = 35°
Angle DFE = 180° - DEF - DEC = 180° - 35° - 65° = 80°

Thus, x = angle CDE = 115° and z = angle DFE = 80°

2) To determine the center of the circle, we need to complete the square for x and y in the given equation:
4x^2 - 8x + 4 + 4y^2 + 2y + 1 - 4 - 1 - 7 = 0
(2x - 2)^2 + (2y + 1)^2 - 12 = 0

Comparing this with the standard form for a circle, (x-a)^2 + (y-b)^2 = r^2, we find:
Center of the circle: (a, b) = (1, -1)
Radius of the circle: r^2 = 12

3)
a)
i) Let the first term of the AP be 'a' and the common difference be 'd'. Then:
a + 14 = 14
a + 34 = a*3
a + 78 = a*3^2

Solving these equations, we find:
a = 2, d = 12

ii) The sixth term of the sequence is:
2 + 14 + 34 + 78 + 2*3 + (2+12)*3 = 2 + 14 + 34 + 78 + 6 + 42 = 176

Sum of the first six terms:
6/2(2 + 176) = 6*178/2 = 534

b) Given that the second term is 24 and the third term is 12(x+1), we can solve for x:
24*r = 24
24*r^2 = 12(x+1)

Solving these equations, we find:
r = 1, x = 1

Therefore, the first term of the progression is:
24/r = 24

4)
a) To find the coordinates of P and Q, we need to solve the simultaneous equations y = 3x and y = 4 - x^2:
3x = 4 - x^2
x^2 + 3x - 4 = 0
(x + 4)(x - 1) = 0

So, the coordinates of P and Q are:
P(-4, 12) and Q(1, 3)

b)
i) Area bounded by the curve y=4-x^2, the x-axis, and line QN:
Integrate the curve from -4 to 1: ∫(4-x^2)dx from -4 to 1 = [4x - (x^3)/3] from -4 to 1 = (16 - 1/3) = 47/3 sq units

ii) Area of the shaded region below the x-axis is the negative of the integral: -47/3 sq units

iii) Area enclosed by the curve y=4-x^2, line y=3x, and the y-axis:
Integrate the curve from -4 to 1 and from 0 to 3: (3 - x)dx from 0 to 3 = 27/2 sq units

5)
a)
Given that the distance from A to B is 800 knots * 5 hours = 4000 knots, we can use the cosine rule to find K:
cos(K) = (AB^2 + AC^2 - BC^2) / (2*AB*AC)
cos(K) = (4000^2 + 4000^2 - 4000^2) / (2*4000*4000)
cos(K) = 1/2
K = 60°

b)
Since C is to the north of B, the latitude of C is 50°N.
