1 A family of curves is given by the equation
x2 - x + a2 - a
(*)
x-1
where the parameter a is a real number.
(a) (i) On the axes in the Printed Answer Booklet, sketch the curve in each of these cases.
• a =-0.5
• a =-0.1
• a = 0.5 [3]
(ii) State one feature of the curve for the cases a =-0.5 and a =-0.1 that is not a feature
of the curve in the case a = 0.5. [1]
(iii) By using a slider for a, or otherwise, write down the non-zero value of a for which the
points on the curve (*) all lie on a straight line. [1]
(iv) Write down the equation of the vertical asymptote of the curve (*). [1]
a2 - a
The equation of the curve (*) can be written in the form y = x + A + , where A is a
constant. x-1
(v) Show that A = 0. [2]
(vi) Hence, or otherwise, find the value of
x2 - x + a2 - a m
limc -x . [2]
x "3 x-1
(vii) Explain the significance of the result in part (a)(vi) in terms of a feature of the curve (*).
[1]
(b) In this part of the question the value of the parameter a satisfies 0 1 a 1 1. For values of a
in this range the curve intersects the x-axis at points X and Y. The point Z has coordinates
(0, -1). These three points form a triangle XYZ.
(i) Determine, in terms of a, the area of the triangle XYZ. [4]
(ii) Find the maximum area of the triangle XYZ. [2]
