Core 2 Mathematics Edexcel June 2012 Question 6
6. (a) Show that the equation tan 2x = 5 sin 2x
can be written in the form (1 – 5 cos 2x) sin 2x = 0
(b) Hence solve, for 0° ≤ x < 180°, tan 2x = 5 sin 2x
giving your answers to 1 decimal place where appropriate.
You must show clearly how you obtained your answers.

Core 2 Mathematics Edexcel June 2012 Question 8
A manufacturer produces pain relieving tablets. Each tablet is in the shape of a solid circular cylinder with base radius x mm and height h mm, as shown in Figure 3.
Given that the volume of each tablet has to be 60 mm3
(a) express h in terms of x,
(b) show that the surface area, A mm2, of a tablet is given by A = 2πx2 + 120/x
