1. Show that tan5θ = (5cot^4θ-10cot^2θ+1) / (cot^5θ-10cot^3θ+5cotθ)
By considering the roots of the equation tan5θ=tan5β (where β is a constant), or otherwise, show that
4
Σcot(β+kπ/5) = 5cot5
k=0

2. Sequence {qn}, n=1,2,3,… satisfies the following conditions:
0< qn <1 and (1- qn) qn+1 >1/4.
a)Prove that qn+1 > qn, n=1,2,3,…
b)Show that lim n→∞(qn) exists and find the limit

3. a) Let a,b,c be real numbers.
i) Show that a^2+b^2+c^2≧ab+bc+ca.
ii) Hence deduce that if a+b+c>0, then a^3+b^3+c^3≧3abc.
b) Let∣x∣< ln2.
i) Show that (e^-x)^1/3 + (2 - e^x)^1/3 + (e^x - e^-x + 1)≦1.

✔ 最佳答案
Can you retype the question again due to the improper showing of the mathematical symbols?

Sequence {qn}, n=1,2,3, ... satisfies the following conditions:
0< qn <1 and (1- qn) qn+1 >1/4.
a)Prove that qn+1>qn, n=1,2,3, ...

Is (1- qn)*qn+1 >1/4 and qn+1>qn??

Please also check question 3,
Is it (e^-x)^1/3 + (2 - e^x)^1/3 + (e^x - e^-x + 1)^1/3>0??.
