b) What is the significance of the position of the graph
(i) above the t-axis
The position of the graph above the t-axis shows that the car travel to its destination.
(ii) below the t-axis
The position of the graph below the t-axis means that the car is going in the opposite
direction, it travel back where it comes from.
c) Using two different methods, find the total distance travelled by the car

st
method is area under the graph
o Area A = 50 km
o Area B = 60 km
o Area C =

method is integration
Since PQ is parallel to RS, the gradient of RS is also -160.
Instead of using
We use
Substitude R (2.5,0) into

Hence, the equation of RS is
The gradient of TU is 160

d) Based on the above graph, write an interesting story of the journey in not more than 100
words.
Gideon with his friends went to the Port Dickson which is 110 km far away from their
hometown that is Puncak Alam. Gideon drives his car from home at velocity of 60 km/h.
After an hour, he drives with the velocity of 80 km/h constantly. Then, he decelerate for the
last half an hour before destination. For 30 minutes, they have fun at the place and then, they
back home. For the first 30 minutes, Gideon drives 80 km/h. Then, he drives with the velocity
of constant and decelerate for the last half an hour until they arrived home.

PART 3
Diagram 2 shows a parabolic satellite disc which is symmetrical at the y-axis. Given that the
diameter of the disc is 8 m and the depth is 1 m.
a) Find the equation of the curve y = (x) .
Since the parabolic satellite disc is symmetrical at the y-axis, the curve y = (x) can
be written on y =
+ c . It can be seen that the curve y = (x) cuts the y-axis at the
point (0,4). Substitute (0,4) into y =
+ c, and you will get y =
+ 4

() is now written as
So ()
b) To find the approximate area under a curve, we can divide the region into several
vertical strips, then we add up the areas of all the strips.
Using a scientific calculator or any suitable computer software, estimate the area
bounded by the curve y = (x) at (a), the x-axis, x = 0 and x = 4.

CONCLUSION
I have done many researches throughout the internet and discussing with some
friends who have helped me a lot in completing this project.Through the completion
of this project work, i have also learned many skills and techniques in ICT. In
addition, this project work helps me to understand more about the uses of calculus in
our daily life. This project work also exposes me to the techniques of application of
additional mathematics in real life situations. While conducting this project work, a
lot of information that i found today. Apart from that, this project work encourages
the students to work together and share their knowledge. It also encourages the
student to gather information from the internet, improve thinking skills, and promote
effective mathematical communication. Last but not least, I proposed this project
should be continued to the next generation because it brings a lot of moral value to
the students and also test the students comprehending additional mathematics.
