Figure 1 shows the central vertical cross-section of a solid wooden ornament.
Figure 2 shows the curve with equation
\[x = \sin^2\left(\frac{1}{2}y\right) \qquad\qquad 0 \leqslant y \leqslant \frac{8\pi}{5}\]
The region \(R\), shown shaded in Figure 2, is bounded by the curve, the line with equation \(y = \dfrac{8\pi}{5}\) and the \(y\)-axis.
The ornament is modelled by the solid of revolution formed when \(R\) is rotated \(360^\circ\) about the \(y\)-axis. The units are centimetres.
(b) Using algebraic integration and the result in part (a), determine, in cm\(^3\), the volume of wood needed to make the ornament, according to the model. Give your answer to 2 significant figures. [Solutions based entirely on calculator technology are not acceptable.] (5)
B1: See scheme. This can appear anywhere in the proof. Accept \(2^4\sin^4\theta\) for \(16\sin^4\theta\), but not \((2\sin\theta)^4\) Alternatively, they may instead substitute \(\sin\theta = \dfrac{1}{2\mathrm{i}}\left(z - \dfrac{1}{z}\right)\) into the expression \(8\sin^4\theta\). This can be implied but must come from correct work. This can appear anywhere in their proof. e.g. \(8\sin^4\theta = 8\left[\dfrac{1}{2\mathrm{i}}\left(z - \dfrac{1}{z}\right)\right]^4\) or \(8\sin^4\theta = 8\left[\left(z - \dfrac{1}{z}\right)\right]^4\dfrac{1}{2^4}\) and allow \(8\sin^4\theta = \dfrac{1}{2}\left[\left(z - \dfrac{1}{z}\right)\right]^4\)
M1: Finds the expansion of \(\left(z - \dfrac{1}{z}\right)^4\) which may be unsimplified. All five terms must be present. Condone sign slips only
A1: Correct expansion, with terms grouped.
M1: Uses \(z^n + \dfrac{1}{z^n} = 2\cos n\theta\) to write in terms of \(\cos 4\theta\) and \(\cos 2\theta\)
A1*: Achieves the printed answer with no errors or omissions. Cso Follows A0.
B1: Correct formula \(\pi\displaystyle\int \left(\sin^2\left(\dfrac{1}{2}y\right)\right)^2\,\mathrm{d}y\) (but not \(\text{vol} = \pi\displaystyle\int x^2\,\mathrm{d}y\)) used to find a volume, stated or implied, ignore limits. If there is a missing \(\pi\) or d\(y\) in their integral, then withhold this mark only. However, this mark may be awarded if \(\pi\) and d\(y\) are seen together later in their integral.
Do not award the following marks if algebraic integration is not used. For example finding an answer of 7.3 without algebraic integration will obtain M0A0dM0A0
M1: Uses the result in part (a) to express the volume in an integrable form and attempts to integrate. Award for an integral of the form \(\displaystyle\int \dfrac{1}{8}\big(A\cos(2y) + B\cos(y) + C\big)\ (\mathrm{d}y)\) with at least one term integrated correctly. Do not be concerned if they use a different variable such as \(\theta\) for \(y\).
Special Case: If they have not used part (a) and instead use the double angle formulae: \(\sin^2\alpha = \dfrac{1}{2} - \dfrac{1}{2}\cos 2\alpha\) and \(\sin^4\alpha = \left(\dfrac{1}{2} - \dfrac{1}{2}\cos 2\alpha\right)^2\) with \(\alpha = \dfrac{1}{2}y\) In this case they must obtain an exact integral equivalent to \(\displaystyle\int \dfrac{1}{8}\big(\cos(2y) - 4\cos(y) + 3\big)\ (\mathrm{d}y)\) and proceed to integrate at least one term correctly.
A1: Correct integration. May be in terms of another variable such as \(\theta\). Ignore \(\pi\)
dM1: Dependent on previous method mark. Finds the required volume using \(\pi\displaystyle\int_0^{\frac{8\pi}{5}} x^2\,\mathrm{d}y\) and applies their limits to their integral and subtracts the correct way round. If there are no limits seen substituted, then a correct final answer implies the correct use of limits and the inclusion of \(\pi\). This is provided they have already achieved an integrated expression of \(\dfrac{1}{8}\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\sin(2y) - 4\sin(y) + 3y\right)\) oe with correct limits seen, possibly on their integral. If their integration is incorrect, then there must be evidence of substituting both limits in each of their terms and subtracting. Allow the omission of subtracting zero provided their integration would produce zero for the lower limit.

B1: Uses the result from (b) to deduce the correct equation.
M1: Must have attempted to use part (b) to obtain \(\alpha\cos^5\theta = \beta\cos\theta\) or equivalent. Collects to one side and attempts to factorise and solve. Note dividing through by \(\cos\theta\) is M0.
A1: Rejects the inappropriate solution and selects \(\cos\theta = 0\) and obtains the correct values only. The equation must have been correct. There must have been some consideration of the \(8\cos^4\theta + 1\) e.g. stating \(8\cos^4\theta \gt 0\) so no solutions, or attempting to find complex roots and deducing no answers. May be minimal, but some consideration that no roots arise from this part must have been given.
Note: The correct answer will appear from incorrect attempts – the M must be gained in order to award the A. E.g. assuming the equation reduces to \(\cos^5\theta = 0\) will score B0M0A0. Likewise, answers only scores B0M0A0 (questions says hence so use of (b) must be seen).

uses exponential form and divides moduli and subtracts arguments the right way round
converts \(z_2\) to Cartesian form and multiplies numerator and denominator by the complex conjugate of the denominator. Allow if the “3” is missing for this method. Allow with decimals for this method e.g. \(\dfrac{z_1}{z_2} = \dfrac{-4 + 4\mathrm{i}}{-0.258\ldots - 0.965\ldots\mathrm{i}} \times \dfrac{-0.258\ldots + 0.965\ldots\mathrm{i}}{-0.258\ldots + 0.965\ldots\mathrm{i}} = \ldots\)
If they convert \(z_2\) to Cartesian form it must be correct as shown or correct decimals.
A1: Correct exact answer in the required form. Do not allow e.g. \(-\dfrac{2}{3}\left(\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{6}\mathrm{i}\right)\) or \(\dfrac{-2\sqrt{2} - 2\sqrt{6}\mathrm{i}}{3}\) unless a correct form is seen previously then apply isw.
Provided a correct method is shown as above, allow to go from the forms in the main scheme to the correct exact answer with no intermediate step.
(b)(ii) Correct answer with no working scores no marks in (b)(ii)
M1: Applies De Moivre’s theorem correctly to \(z_2\). E.g. uses polar form or exponential form and calculates the modulus as \(3^4\) and the argument as \(4 \times \dfrac{17\pi}{12}\) For attempts at \(z_2^4 = \left\{3\left(\left(\dfrac{\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{6}}{4}\right) - \mathrm{i}\left(\dfrac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{6}}{4}\right)\right)\right\}^4\) you would need to see:
the correct exact form used
a clear and convincing attempt to expand the brackets e.g. by using a full binomial expansion or a complete attempt to multiply all 4 brackets together but you are not expected to check every detail
a final answer in the required form with no obvious errors seen
So \(z_2^4 = \left\{3\left(\left(\dfrac{\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{6}}{4}\right) - \mathrm{i}\left(\dfrac{\sqrt{2} + \sqrt{6}}{4}\right)\right)\right\}^4 = \dfrac{81}{2} - \dfrac{81\sqrt{3}}{2}\mathrm{i}\) scores no marks. Similar guidance applies if they attempt to expand \(\left\{3\left(\cos\dfrac{17\pi}{12} + \mathrm{i}\sin\dfrac{17\pi}{12}\right)\right\}^4\)
A1: Correct exact answer in the required form. Do not allow e.g. \(\dfrac{81}{2}\left(1 - \dfrac{81\sqrt{3}}{2}i\right)\) or \(\dfrac{81 - 81\sqrt{3}\mathrm{i}}{2}\) unless a correct form is seen previously then apply isw.

(c) Using algebraic integration and the result in part (a), determine, in \(\text{cm}^3\), the volume of the paperweight, according to the model. Give your answer to 2 decimal places.
[Solutions based entirely on calculator technology are not acceptable.]
B1: Correct identity or equivalent rearrangement. This can appear anywhere in the proof.
M1: Attempts the expansion of \(\left(z + \dfrac{1}{z}\right)^6\) must have at least 3 correct terms. Combining the powers when expanding is fine.
A1: Correct expansion with \(z\) terms simplified, need not be rearranged. (So a correct expansion will score M1A1.)
M1: Uses \(z^n + \dfrac{1}{z^n} = 2\cos n\theta\) to write the expression in terms multiple angles of \(\cos 6\theta,\ \cos 4\theta\) and \(\cos 2\theta\). Pairing of terms must be seen.
A1*: Achieves the printed answer with no errors or omissions. Cso
For approaches using De Moivre B0M1A1M0A0 may be scored if the binomial expansions is attempted (and correct for the A).
Note: The question instructs use of algebraic integration and part (a), so answer only can score at most B1 for implied correct formula.
B1ft: Correct expression for the volume of the paperweight or the solid formed through 360° rotation, stated or implied, ignore limits. No need to expand, but must be applied, not just a formula in \(y\), though allow a correct formula followed by correct integral if the \(\pi\) disappears. Follow through their \(H\)
M1: Uses the result in part part (a) to express the volume in an integrable form and attempts to integrate. Note use of \(\theta\) instead of \(x\) is permissible for this mark. Allow if one term is missing or miscopied.
A1: Correct integration in terms of \(x\). Ignore \(\pi\), their \(H^2\) and the \(\dfrac{1}{32}\). Note if \(\theta\) has been used it is A0 unless a correct substitution method has been implied as the coefficients will be incorrect.

Similarly \(\cos\frac{3\pi}{4} = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\) and \(\left(\cos\theta + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)\) is also a factor of the expression.
So \(\left(\cos\theta - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)\left(\cos\theta + \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right) = \left(\cos^2\theta - \frac{1}{2}\right)\) is a factor and \((2\cos^2\theta - 1)\) is a factor
