I 3.3 Exercises - The field axioms. The goal seems to be to abstract these so-called real numbers into just xs and ys that
are purely built upon these axioms.
Exercise 1. Thm. I.5. a(b c) = ab ac.

Let y = ab ac; x = a(b c)


Want: x = y
ac + y = ab (by Thm. I.2, possibility of subtraction)
Note that by Thm. I.3, a(b c) = a(b + (c)) = ab + a(c) (by distributivity axiom)
ac + x = ac + ab + a(c) = a(c + (c)) + ab = a(0 + b) = ab
But there exists exactly one y or x by Thm. I.2. x = y.
Thm. I.6. 0 a = a 0 = 0.
0(a) = a(0) (by commutativity axiom)
Given b R and 0 R, exactly one b s.t. b a = 0
0(a) = (b + (b))a = ab ab = 0 (by Thm. I.5. and Thm. I.2)
Thm. I.7.
ab = ac
By Axiom 4, y R s.t. ay = 1
since products are uniquely determined, yab = yac = (ya)b = (ya)c = 1(b) = 1(c)
= b = c
Thm. I.8. Possibility of Division.
Given a, b, a 6= 0, choose y such that ay = 1.
Let x = yb.
ax = ayb = 1(b) = b
Therefore, there exists at least one x such that ax = b. But by Thm. I.7, there exists only one x (since if az b, and so
x = z).
Thm. I.9. If a 6= 0, then b/a = b(a1 ).
b
for ax = b
a
y = a1 for ay = 1

Let x =

Want: x = by
Now b(1) = b, so ax = b = b(ay) = a(by)
= x = by (by Thm. I.7)
1 1

Thm. I.10. If a 6= 0, then (a ) = a.


Now ab = 1 for b = a1 . But since b R and b 6= 0 (otherwise 1 = 0, contradiction), then using Thm. I.8 on b,
ab = b(a) = 1; a = b1 .
Thm.I.11. If ab = 0, a = 0 or b = 0.
ab = 0 = a(0) = b = 0 or ab = ba = b(0) = a = 0. (we used Thm. I.7, cancellation law for multiplication)
Thm. I.12. Want: x = y if x = (a)b and y = (ab).
ab + y = 0
ab + x = ab + (a)b = b(a + (a)) = b(a a) = b(0) = 0
0 is unique, so ab + y = ab + x implies x = y( by Thm. I.1 )
Thm. I.13. Want: x + y = z, if a = bx, c = dy, (ad + bc) = (bd)z.
(bd)(x + y) = bdx + bdy = ad + bc = (bd)z
So using b, d 6= 0, which is given, and Thm. I.7, then x + y = z.
4

Thm. I.14. Want: xy = z for bx = a, dy = c, ac = (bd)z.


(bd)(xy) = (bx)(dy) = ac = (bd)z
b, d 6= 0, so by Thm. I.7, xy = z.
Thm.I.15. Want: x = yz, if bx = a, dy = c, (bc)z = ad
(bc)z = b(dy)z = d(byz) = da
d 6= 0 so by Thm. I.7, by z = a, byz = abx
b 6= 0 so by Thm. I.7, yz = x
Exercise 2. Consider 0 + z = 0. By Thm. I.2, there exists exactly one z, z = 0. By Axiom 4, z = 0. 0 = 0.
Exercise 3. Consider 1(z)z(1) = 1. Then z = 11 . But by Axiom 4, there exists distinct 1 such that z(1) = 1, so z = 1.
Exercise 4. Suppose there exists x such that 0x = 1, but 0x = 0 and 0 and 1 are distinct, so zero has no reciprocal .
Exercise 5. a + (a) = 0, 0 + 0 = 0. Then

a + (a) + b + (b) = (a + b) + (a) + (b) = 0


(a + b) = a + (b) = a b
Exercise 6. a + (a) = 0, b + (b) = 0, so

a + (a) + b + (b) = a + (b) + (a) + b = (a b) + (a) + b = 0 + 0 = 0


(a b) = a + b.
Exercise 7.

(a b) + (b c) = a + (b) + b + (c) = a + (b + (b)) + (c) = a c


Exercise 8.

(ab)x = 1

(ab)1 = x

a(bx) = 1

a1 = bx

b(ax) = 1

b1 ax

a1 b1 = (abx)x = 1(x) = (ab)1


Exercise 9. Want: x = y = z, if

a
b
(a)
y=
b 
a
x=
b
z=

a = zt
by = u
a
b

b+t=0
a+u=0

+ x = v + x = 0 vb = a

a + (a) = vb + by = b(v + y) = 0
if b 6= 0, v + y = 0, but v + x = 0
by Thm. I.1 , x = y
b + t = 0, then z(b + t) = zb + zt = zb + a = z(0) = 0
a + zb = 0 = a = zb = by
since b 6= 0, z = y so x = y = z
Exercise 10. Since b, d 6= 0, Let

ad bc
bd
a
x=
b
c
t=
d
z=

(bd)z = ad bc by previous exercise or Thm. I.8, the possibility of division


bx = a
dt = c (By Thm. I.3, we know that b a = b + (a) )
5

dbx + bdt = (bd)(x + y) = ad bc = (bd)z


b, d 6= 0, so x + y = z
I 3.5 Exercises - The order axioms.
Theorem 1 (I.18). If a < b and c > 0 then ac < bc
Theorem 2 (I.19). If a < b and c > 0, then ac < bc
Theorem 3 (I.20). If a 6= 0, then a2 > 0
Theorem 4 (I.21). 1 > 0
Theorem 5 (I.22). If a < b and c < 0, then ac > bc.
Theorem 6 (I.23). If a < b and a > b. In particular, if a < 0, then a > 0.
Theorem 7 (I.24). If ab > 0, then both a and b are positive or both are negative.
Theorem 8 (I.25). If a < c and b < d, then a + b < c + d.
Exercise 1.

(1) By Thm. I.19, c > 0


a(c) < b(c) ac < bc
bc (ac) = ac bc > 0. Then ac > bc (by definition of > )
(2)
a < b a + 0 < b + 0 a + b + (b) < b + a + (a) (a + b) b < (a + b) + (a)
By Thm.I.18 (a + b) + (a + b) + (b) < (a + b) (a + b) + (a)
b < a
(3)
If a = 0 or b = 0, ab = 0, but 0 0
If a > 0, then if b > 0, ab > 0(b) = 0. If b < 0, ab < 0(b) = 0. So if a > 0, then b > 0.
If a < 0, then if b > 0, ab < 0(b) = 0. If b < 0, ab > 0(b) = 0. So if a < 0, then b < 0.
(4)
a < c so a + b < c + b = b + c
b < d so b + c < d + c
By Transitive Law , a + b < d + c
Exercise 2. If x = 0, x2 = 0. 0 + 1 = 1 6= 0. So x 6= 0.

If x 6= 0, x2 > 0, and by Thm. I.21 , 1 > 0


x2 + 1 > 0 + 0 = 0 x2 + 1 6= 0
= @x R such that x2 + 1 = 0
Exercise 3.

a < 0, b < 0, a + b < 0 + 0 = 0 ( By Thm. I.25)


Exercise 4. Consider ax = 1.

ax = 1 > 0. By Thm. I.24 , a, x are both positive or a, x are both negative


Exercise 5. Define x, y such that ax = 1, by = 1. We want x > y when b > a.

xb ax = xb 1 > 0 = bx > 1 = by
b > 0 so x > y
Exercise 6.
6

If a = b and b = c, then a = c
If a = b and b < c, then a < c
If a < b and b = c, then a < c
If a < b and b < c, then a < c (by transitivity of the inequality)
= a c
Exercise 7. If a b and b c, then a c. If a = c, then by previous proof, a = b.
Exercise 8. If a b and b c, then a c. If a = c, then by previous proof, a = b.
Exercise 8. If a or b is zero, a2 or b2 = 0. By Thm. I.20, b2 0 or a2 0, respectively.

Otherwise, if neither are zero, by transitivity, a2 + b2 > 0.


Exercise 9. Suppose a x. Then a x 0.

If a R so y R, such that a y = 0.
Consider y + 1 R (by closure under addition).
a (y + 1) = a y 1 = 0 1 < 0 Contradiction that a y + 1
Exercise 10.

If x = 0, done.
If x > 0, x is a positive real number. Let h =

x

I 3.12 Exercises - Integers and rational numbers, Geometric interpretation of real numbers as points on a line,
Upper bound of a set, maximum element, least upper bound (supremum), The least-upper-bound axiom (completeness
axiom), The Archimedean property of the real-number system, Fundamental properties of the suprenum and infimum.
We use Thm I.30, the Archimedean property of real numbers, alot.
=

Theorem 9 (I.30). If x > 0 and if y is an arbitrary real number, there exists a positive integer n such that nx > y.
We will use the least upper-bound axiom (completeness axiom) alot for continuity and differentiation theorems later.
Apostol states it as an axiom; in real analysis, the existence of a sup for nonempty, bounded sets can be shown with an
algorithm to zoom into a sup with monotonically increasing and monotonically decreasing sequence of guesses and showing
its difference is a Cauchy sequence.
Axiom 1 (Least upper-bound axiom). Every nonempty set S of real numbers which is bounded above has a suprenum; that
is, theres a real number B s.t. B = supS.
Exercise 1. 0 < y x.

= n(y x) > h > 0, n Z+ , h arbitrary


y x > h/n = y > x + h/n > x
so let z = x + h/n Done.
Exercise 2. x R so n Z+ such that n > x (Thm. I.29).

Set of negative integers is unbounded below because


If m Z , x > m, then x is an upper bound on Z+ . Contradiction of Thm. I.29. = m Z such that m < x < n
Exercise 3. Use Archimedian property.

x > 0 so for 1, n Z+ such that nx > 1, x >

1
n.

Exercise 4. x is an arbitrary real number. By Thm. I.29 and well-ordering principle, there exists a smallest n + 1 positive

integer such that x < n + 1 (consider the set of all m + 1 > x and so by well-ordering principle, there must be a smallest
element of this specific set of positive integers).
If x = n for some positive integer n, done.
Otherwise, note that if x < n, then n + 1 couldnt have been the smallest element such that m > x. x > n.
Exercise 5. If x = n, done. Otherwise, consider all m > x. By well-ordering principle, there exists a smallest element n such
7

that n > x.
If x + 1 < n, then x < n 1, contradicting the fact that n is the smallest element such that x < n. Thus x + 1 > n.
Exercise 6. y x > 0.

n(y x) > h, h arbitrary , n Z+


y > x + h/n = z > x
Since h was arbitrary, there are infinitely many numbers in between x, y.
Exercise 7. x =

xy =

If a by was an integer, say m, then y =

y is not an integer
Exercise 8. Proof by counterexamples. We want that the sum or product of 2 irrational numbers is not always irrational. If y

is irrational, y + 1 is irrational, otherwise, if y + 1 Q, y Q by closure under addition.


= y + 1 y = 1
Likewise, y y1 = 1.
Exercise 9.

y x > 0 = n(y x) > k, n Z+ , k arbitrary. Choose k to be irrational. Then k/n irrational.

+ x > x. Let z = x + , z irrational .

Exercise 10.

(1) Suppose n = 2m1 and n + 1 = 2m2 .


1
. But m1 m2 can only be an integer.
2
(2) By the well-ordering principle, if x Z+ is neither even and odd, consider the set of all x. There must exist a
smallest element x0 of this set. But since x0 Z+ , then there must exist a n < x such that n + 1 = x0 . n is even or
odd since it doesnt belong in the above set. So x0 must be odd or even. Contradiction.
(3)
(2m1 )(2m2 ) = 2(2m1 m2 ) even
2m1 + 1 = 2m2

2(m1 m2 ) = 1

m1 m2 =

2m1 + 2m2 = 2(m1 + m2 ) even


(2m1 + 1) + (2m2 + 1) = 2(m1 + m2 + 1) = sum of two odd numbers is even
(n1 + 1)(n2 + 1) = n1 n2 + n1 + n + 2 + 1 = 2(2m1 m2 )
2(2m1 m2 ) (n1 + n2 ) 1 odd, the product of two odd numbers n1 , n2 is odd
2

(4) If n even, n is even, since for n = 2m, (2m)2 = 4m2 = 2(2m2 ) is even.
a2 = 2b2 . 2(b2 ) even. a2 even, so a even.
If a even a = 2n.a2 = 4n2
If b odd , b2 odd. b has no factors of 2 b2 6= 4n2
Thus b is even.
8

(5) For pq , If p or q or both are odd, then were done.


Else, when p, q are both even, p = 2l m, q = 2n p, m, p odd.
2l m
2ln m
p
= n =
and at least m or p odd
q
2 p
p
Exercise 11.

a
b

can be put into a form such that a or b at least is odd by the previous exercise.

However, a2 = 2b2 , so a even, b even, by the previous exercise, part (d) or 4th part. Thus

a
b

cannot be rational.

Exercise 12. The set of rational numbers satisfies the Archimedean property but not the least-upper-bound property.

Since

p
q

Q R, n pq11 >

p2
q2

since if q1 , q2 > 0,
np1 q2
q1 p2
>
q1 q2
q1 q2

np1 q2 > q1 p2

n exists since (p1 q2 ), (q1 p2 ) R.


The set of rational numbers does not satisfy the least-upper-bound property.
Consider a nonempty set of rational numbers S bounded above so that x = rs S, x < b.
Suppose x < b1 , x < b2 x S.
r
r
< b2 < nb1 but likewise < b1 < mb2 , n, m Z+

So its possible that b1 > b2 , but also b2 > b1 .

Assume the k 1th case. Consider kj , 1 j k.


If kj Z+ , only for j = 1, j = k, then k prime.
If kj Z+ , for some 1 < j < k, kj = c Z+ . c, j < k.
Thus k = cj. c, j are products of primes or are primes, by induction hypothesis. Thus k is a product of primes.

Now assume pth case. Test the p + 1 case.

since p + 2 < 2p + 2 = 2(p + 1) for p Z+


For the right-hand inequality, we will use the fact just proven, that 2p (p) > 0 and pth case rewritten in this manner
(1 + 2p ) >

2p+1
= (1 + 2p )(p + 1) > 2p+1
p+1

So
(p + 2)(1 + 2p+1 ) = (p + 2) + ((p + 1) + 1)2p (2) = (p + 2) + 2(p + 1)2p + 2p (2) >
> (p + 2) + 2(2p+1 (p + 1)) + 2p (2) = p + 2p+2 + 2p+1 > 2p+2

1 + a1 + a2 + + an + an+1

S M, a(S) 0

Axiom 3 (Additive property). If S, T M, then S T, S T M and


a(S T ) = a(S) + a(T ) a(S T )

(2)

Axiom 4 (Difference property). If S, T M, S T then T S M and


a(T S) = a(T ) a(S)

(3)

Axiom 5 (Invariance under congruence). If S M, T = S, then T M, a(T ) = a(S)

Axiom 6 (Choice of scale). rectangle R M, if R has edge lengths h, k then a(R) = hk

Axiom 7 (Exhaustion property). Let Q such that

If only one c such that a(S) c a(T ), S, T such that they satisfy Eqn. (??)
then Q measurable and a(Q) = c
Exercise 1.

to be zero.
Let Tl = { line segment containing x0 }, Q = {x0 }.
For Q, only Q
By Axiom 3, let T = S.
a(T S) = a() = a(T ) a(T ) = 0

Exercise 3. Prove that every trapezoid and every parallelogram is measurable and derive the usual formulas for their areas.

A trapezoid is simply a rectangle with a right triangle attached to each end of it. Tr = R + T1 + T2 . T1 , T2 are right
triangles and so by the previous problem, T1 , T2 are measurable. Then Tr is measurable by the Additive property axiom (note
that the triangles and the rectangle dont overlap).
17

We can compute the area of a trapezoid:


Tr = R + T1 + T2 = a(Tr ) = a(R) + a(T1 ) + a(T2 )
1

a(Tr ) = hb1 + h(b2 b1 )/2 + h(b2 b1 )/2 = h(b1 + h2 )

P = R (a parallelogram consists of a right triangle rotated by and attached to the other side of the same right triangle;
the two triangles do not overlap). Since two right triangles are measurable, the parallelogram, P is measurable.
Using the Additive Axiom, a(P ) = 2a(T ) = 2 12 bh = bh
Exercise 4. A point (x, y) in the plane is called a lattice point if both coordinates x and y are integers. Let P be a polygon

whose vertices are lattice points. The area of P is I + 12 B 1, where I denotes the number of lattice points inside the polygon
and B denotes the number on the boundary.
(1) Consider one side of the rectangle lying on a coordinate axis with one end on the origin. If the rectangle side has
length l, then l + 1 lattice points lie on this side (you have to count one more point at the 0 point. Then consider the
same number of lattice points on the opposite side. We have 2(l + 1) lattice points so far, for the boundary.
The other pair of sides will contribute 2(h1) lattice points, the 1 to avoid double counting. Thus 2(l +h) = B.
I = (h 1)(l 1) by simply considering multiplication of (h 1) rows and (l 1) columns of lattice points
inside the rectangle.

I + 21 B 1 = hl h l + 1 + (l + h) 1 = hl = a(R)
(2)
(3)
Exercise 5. Prove that a triangle whose vertices are lattice points cannot be equilateral.

My way: I will take, for granted, that we know an equilateral triangle has angles of /3 for all its angles.
Even if we place two of the vertices on lattice points, so that its length is 2L, and put the midpoint and an intersecting
perpendicular bisector on a coordinate axis (a picture would help), but the ratio of the perpendicular bisector to the third
vertex to half the length of the triangle is cot /3 = 13 . Even if we go down by an integer number L, L steps down, we go

out to the third vertex by an irrational number 3L. Thus, the third vertex cannot lie on a lattice point.
Exercise 6. Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and let M denote the class of all subsets of A. (There are 32 altogether counting A itself

and the empty set ). (My Note: the set of all subsets, in this case, M, is called a power set and is denoted 2A . This is
because the way to get the total number of elements of this power set, |2A |, or the size, think of assigning to each element a
yes, if its in some subset, or no, if its not. This is a great way of accounting for all possible subsets and we correctly
get all possible subsets.) For each set S in M, let n(S) denote the number of distinct elements in S. If S = {1, 2, 3, 4} and
T = {3, 4, 5},
[
n(S
T) = 5
\
n(S
T) = 2
n(S T ) = n({1, 2}) = 2
n(T S) = n({5}) = 1
n satisfies nonnegativeSproperty
T because by definition, theres
S no such
T thing as a negative number of elements. If S, T are
subsets of A, so are S T , S T since every element in S ST , S T is in S. Thus n could
it, so that its
T be assigned to T
measurable. Since n counts only distinct elements, then n(S T ) = n(S) + a(T ) a(S T ), where a(S T ) ensures
there is no double counting of distinct elements. Thus, the Additive Property Axiom is satisfied.

For S T , then x T S, x T, x
/ S Now S T , so x S, x T . Thus T S is complementary to S with
respect to T . n(S) + n(T S) = n(T ), since n counts up distinct elements.

(1) Consider a right triangle with lattice points as vertices. Consider b + 1 lattice points as the base with b length.
Start from the vertex and move across the base by increments of 1.
The main insight is that the slope of the hypotenuse of the right triangle is ab so as we move 1 along the base, the
hypotenuse (or the y-value, if you will) goes up by ab . Now
h na i

So for f (3) =

s(0 x < 1) = 0
s(1 x < 2) = (1)(1)
s(2 x < 3) = 2;
s(3 x < 4) = 3

So then

f (3) = (1)(1) + 2(1) = 1


f (4) = 1 + (3)(1) = 2
f (f (3)) = f (1) = 0

the sine and cosine functions. Exercise 1.
(1) sin = sin 0 = 0. sine is periodic by 2, so by induction, sin n = 0.
sin 2(n + 1) = sin 2n + 2 = sin 2n = 0
sin (2(n + 1) + 1) = sin (2n + 3) = sin ((2n + 1) + 2) = sin (2n + 1) = 0
(2) cos /2 = cos /2 = 0
by induction, cos /2 + 2j = cos /2(1 + 4j)
cos /2 + 2j = cos (4j 1)/2, j Z+
Exercise 2.

(1) sin /2 = 1, sin /2(1 + 4j) = 1, j Z+ .


(2) cos x = 1, cos 0 = 1, cos 2j = 1
Exercise 3.

sin x + = sin x + /2 + /2 = cos x + /2 = sin x


cos x + = cos x + /2 + /2 = sin x + /2 = cos x
Exercise 4.
26

sin 3x = sin 2x cos x + sin x cos 2x = 2 sin x cos2 x + sin x(cos2 x sin2 x) = 3 cos2 x sin x sin3 x =
= 3(1 sin2 x) sin x sin3 x = 3 sin x 4 sin3 x
cos 3x = cos 2x cos x sin 2x sin x = (cos2 x sin2 x) cos x (2 sin x cos x) sin x = cos x 4 sin2 x cos x
cos 3x = 3 cos x + 4 cos3 x
Exercise 5.

(1) This is the most direct solution. Using results from Exercise 4 (and it really helps to choose the cosine relationship,
not the sine relationship),
cos 3x = 4 cos3 x 3 cos x
x = /6
cos 3/6 = 0 = 4 cos3 /6 3 cos /6 = cos /6(4 cos2 /6 3) = 0

= cos /6 = 3/2, sin /6 = 1/2( by Pythagorean theorem )

(2) sin 2/6 = 2 cos /6 sin /6 = 32, cos /3


= 1/2 (by Pythagorean theorem)
(3) cos2/4 = 0 = 2 cos /4 1, cos /4 = 1/ 2 = sin /4
Note that the most general way to solve a cubic is to use this formula. For x3 + bx2 + cx + d = 0,

Exercise 8.

C sin x + = C(sin x cos + cos x sin ) = C cos sin x + C sin cos x


A = C cos , B = C sin
Exercise 9. If A = 0, B cos x = B sin /2 + x = C sin x + so C = B, = /2 if A = 0.

Exercise 10. C sin x + = C sin x cos + C cos x sin .

C cos = 2, C sin = 2, C = 2 2, = /4
Exercise 11. If A = 0, C = B, = 0. If B = 0, A = C, = /2. Otherwise,

Exercise 12.

1 cos2 x = cos x = 1/ 2 = x =
4

Try 5/4. sin 5/4 = cos 3/4 = sin /4= 1/ 2.


cos 5/4 = sin 3/4 = cos /4 = 1/ 2. So sin 5/4 = cos 5/4. x = 5/4 must be the other root.
So = /4 + n (by periodicity of sine and cosine).
sin x = cos x =

Exercise 13.

sin x cos x = 1 =

1 cos2 x = 1 + cos x

= 1 cos2 x = 1 + 2 cos x + cos2 x = 0 = 2 cos x(1 + cos x)


cos x = 1, x = /2 + 2n
Exercise 14.

cos x y + cos x + y = cos x cos y + sin x sin y + cos x cos y sin x sin y = 2 cos x cos y
cos x y cos x + y = sin x cos y sin y cos x + sin x cos y + sin y cos x = 2 sin x cos y
sin x y + sin x + y = sin x cos y sin y cos x + sin x cos y + sin y cos x = 2 sin x cos y

Exercise 16.

(1)
sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x
if sin 2x = 2 sin x and x 6= 0, x 6= n, cos x = 1 but x 6= n = x = 2n
(2) cos x + y = cos x cos y sin x sin y = cos x + cos y.
p
cos x cos y cos x cos y = sin y 1 cos2 x
Letting A = cos x, B = cos y,
2

A B + A + B 2A2 B 2AB 2 + 2AB = 1 A2 B 2 + A2 B 2


A2 + B 2 A2 B AB 2 + AB = 1/2
B 2 (1 A) + B(A A2 ) + A2 1/2 = 0
B=

1A
Note that 1 B 1, but for |A| 1.

Solve for the roots of 3A2 A3 + 2, A0 = 1, 1 + 3, 1 3. So suppose cos x = 9/10. Then there is
no real number for y such that cos y would be real and satisfy the above equation.
(3) sin x + y = sin x cos y + sin y cos x = sin x + sin y
=A

= sin y(1 cos x) + sin y + cos x sin y = 0, = y = 2n


Checking our result, we find that sin (2n + y) = sin 2n + sin y(1)

if x is not an integer; f (x) = 0 if x Z.

For any real number, x = q + r, 0 r < 1, q Z. So then


x [x] = r

f (x) = r

(1) To show the periodicity, consider
f (x + 1) = x + 1 [x + 1]

(2) P (x) = 0 f (t)dt = 0 (t 12 ) = 12 x2 21 x because given 0 < x 1, then q = 0 for x, so we can use r = t.

Proceed to construct a for x1 , some (x1 ; 0 )
|x x1 | = |x x0 + x0 x1 | < |x x0 | + |x0 x1 |
Without loss of generality, we can specify x1 such that |x0 x1 | <

So 0 , 1 for x1 . f is continuous at x1 (a, b). Thus, there must be infinitely many points that are continuous in (a, b),

3.11 Exercises - Bolzanos theorem for continuous functions, The intermediate-value theorem for continuous functions. These theorems form the foundation for continuity and will be valuable for differentiation later.
Theorem 10 (Bolzanos Theorem).
Let f be cont. at x [a, b].
Assume f (a), f (b) have opposite signs.
Then at least one c (a, b) s.t. f (c) = 0.
Proof. Let f (a) < 0, f (b) > 0.
Want: Fine one value c (a, b) s.t. f (c) = 0
Strategy: find the largest c.
Let S = { all x [a, b] s.t. f (x) 0 }.
S is nonempty since f (a) < 0. S is bounded since all S [a, b].
= S has a suprenum.
Let c = supS.
If f (c) > 0, (c , c + ) s.t. f > 0
c is an upper bound on S
but c is a least upper bound on S. Contradiction.
If f (c) < 0, (c , c + ) s.t. f < 0
c + is an upper bound on S
but c is an upper bound on S. Contradiction.

Let f be cont. at each pt. on [a, b].
Choose any x1 , x2 [a, b] s.t. x1 < x2 . s.t. f (x1 ) 6= f (x2 ).
Then f takes on every value between f (x1 ) and f (x2 ) somewhere in (x1 , x2 ).
Proof. Suppose f (x1 ) < f (x2 )
Let k be any value between f (x1 ) and f (x2 )
Let g = f k
g(x1 ) = f (x1 ) k < 0
g(x2 ) = f (x2 ) k > 0
By Bolzano, c (x1 , x2 ) s.t. g(c) = 0

By Bolzanos theorem, there is at least one b (M, 0) such that f (b) = b2j+1 a = 0.
Since x2j+1 a is monotonically increasing, there is exactly one b.
Exercise 4. tan x is not continuous at x = /2.
Exercise 5. Consider g(x) = f (x) x. Then g(x) is continuous on [0, 1] since f is.

Since 0 f (x) 1 for each x [0, 1], consider g(1) = f (1) 1, so that 1 g(1) 0. Likewise 0 g(0) 1.
If g(1) = 0 or g(0) = 0, were done (g(0) = f (0) 0 = 0. f (0) = 0. Or g(1) = f (1) 1 = 0, f (1) = 1 ).
Otherwise, if 1 g(1) < 0 and 0 < g(0) 1, then by Bolzanos theorem, at least one c such that
g(c) = 0 (g(c) = f (c) c = 0. f (c) = c).
Exercise 6. Given f (a) a, f (b) b,

Consider g(x) = f (x) x 0. Then g(a) = f (a) a 0, g(b) = f (b) b 0.


Since f is continuous on [a, b] (so is g) and since g(a), g(b) are of opposite signs, by Bolzanos theorem, at least one c
such that g(c) = 0, so that f (c) = c.

Exercise 7. The line y = x as slope 1.

y = x3 6x2 + 8x y 0 = 3x2 12x + 9


3x2 12x + 8 = 1 = x = 3, 1
The line and the curve meet under the condition
x = x3 6x2 + 8x = x = 3; f (3) = 3
At x = 0, the line and the curve also meet.
Exercise 8. f = x(1 x2 ). f 0 = 1 3x2 .

f 0 (1) = 2 = y = 2x 2
For the other line,
f 0 (a) = 1 3a2
= y(1) = 0 = (1 3a2 )(1) + b = b = 1 3a2
Now f (a) = a(1 a2 ) = a a3 at this point. The line and the curve must meet at this point.
y(a) = (1 3a2 )a + (1 3a2 ) =
= a 3a3 + 1 3a2 = a a3
1 3
= 2a3 + 1 3a2 = 0 = a3 + a2
2 2
The answer could probably be guessed at, but lets review some tricks for solving cubics.
First, do a translation in the x direction to center the origin on the point of inflection. Find the point of inflection by taking
the second derivative.

cos 3x = cos 2x cos x sin 2x sin x = 4 cos3 x 3 cos x

cos 3x
=0
= cos3 x = cos x

Particularly for this problem, we have cos 3x = 1. So x = 0, 2/3, 4/3. cos x = 1, 21 . Plugging cos x x back into
what we have for a, a = 1, which we already have in the previous part, and a = 12 . So

Lets recap what was shown in the past two sections:
y0 =

Theorem 13 (Theorem 4.3).


Let f be defined on I.
Assume f has a rel. extrema at an int. pt. c I.
If f 0 (c), f 0 (c) = 0; the converse is not true.
(c)
Proof. Q(x) = f (x)f
if x 6= c, Q(c) = f 0 (c)
xc
0
f (c), so Q(x) Q(c) as x c so Q is continuous at c.
(c)
If Q(c) > 0, f (x)f
> 0. For x c 0, f (x) f (c), thus contradicting the rel. max or rel. min. (no neighborhood
xc
about c exists for one!)
(c)
If Q(c) < 0, f (x)f
< 0. For x c 0, f (x) f (c), thus contradicting the rel. max or rel. min. (no neighborhood
xc
about c exists for one!)
Converse is not true: e.g. saddle points.


Theorem 14 (Rolles Theorem).


Let f be cont. on [a, b], f 0 (x) x (a, b) and let
f (a) = f (b)
0

then at least one c (a, b), such that f (c) = 0.


Proof. Suppose f 0 (x) 6= 0 x (a, b).
By extreme value theorem, abs. max (min) M, m somewhere on [a, b].
M, m on endpoints a, b (Thm 4.3).
F (a) = f (b), so m = M . f constant on [a, b]. Contradict f 0 (x) 6= 0

Theorem 15 (Mean-value theorem for Derivatives). Assume f is cont. everywhere on [a, b], f 0 (x) x (a, b).
at least one c (a, b) such that
(6)

f (b) f (a) = f 0 (c)(b a)

Proof.
h(x) = f (x)(b a) x(f (b) f (a))
h(a) = f (a)b f (a)a af (b) + af (a)
h(b) = f (b)(b a) b(f (b) f (a)) = bf (a) af (b) = h(a)
= c (a, b), such that h0 (c) = 0 = f 0 (c)(b a) (f (b) f (a))

Theorem 16 (Cauchys Mean-Value Formula). Let f, g cont. on [a, b], f 0 , g 0
Then c (a, b). x
(7)

f 0 (c)(g(b) g(a)) = g 0 (c)(f (b) f (a))


53

x (a, b)

(note how its symmetrical)

Proof.
h(x) = f (x)(g(b) g(a)) g(x)(f (b) f (a))
h(a) = f (a)(g(b) g(a)) g(a)(f (b) f (a)) = f (a)g(b) g(a)f (b)
h(b) = f (b)(g(b) g(a)) g(b)(f (b) f (a))
= h0 (c) = f 0 (c)(g(b) g(a)) g 0 (c)(f (b) f (a)) = 0

(by Rolles Thm.)




Exercise 1. For any quadratic polynomial y = y(x) = Ax2 + Bx + C,

y(a) = Aa2 + Ba + C
y(b) = Ab2 + Bb + C
y(b) y(a)
A(b a)(b + a) + B(b a)
=
= A(b + a) + B
ba
ba
y 0 = 2Ax + B


a+b
= A(a + b) + B
y0
2
Thus the chord joining a and b has the same slope as the tangent line at the midpt.
Exercise 2. The contrapositive of a theorem is always true. So the contrapositive of Rolles Theorem is

If @ at least one c (a, b) s.t. f 0 (c) = 0,


then f (a) 6= f (b).
g 0 = 3x2 3 = 3(x2 1) = g 0 (1) = 0
Suppose g(B) = 0,
then x (1, 1),

x 6= B,

B (1, 1)

g(x) 6= g(B),

so g(x) 6= 0 for x 6= B

so only at most one B (1, 1) s.t. g(B) = 0

f0 =

This is possible since f is not differentiable at x = 0.
Exercise 5. x2 = x sin x + cos x. g = xS + C x2 . g 0 = S + xC S 2x = xC 2x = x(C 2). Since |C| 1 then

(C 2) is negative for all x. Then for x 0, g 0 0. Since g(0) = 1 and for x , g , then we could conclude
that g must become zero between 0 and and and 0.

Exercise 7. f (x) = (x a1 )(x a2 ) . . . (x ar )g(x).

(1) a1 < a2 < < ar .


Since f (a1 ) = f (a2 ) = 0.
f 0 (c) = 0 for c1 (a1 , a2 ).
Consider that f (a2 ) = f (a3 ) = 0 as well as f 0 (c2 ) = 0 for c (a2 , a3 ).
Indeed, since f (aj ) = f (aj+1 ) = 0, f 0 (c) = 0 for c (aj , aj+1 ).
Thus, r 1 zeros.
f (k) has r k zeros in [a, b].
f (k) = (x a1 )(x a2 ) . . . (x ark )gk (x)
Since f (a1 ) = f (a2 ) = 0,
f (k+1) (c1 ) = 0 for c1 (a1 , a2 ).
f (k) (aj ) = f (k) (aj+1 ) = 0,

f (k+1) (cj ) = 0 for cj (aj , aj+1 )

= f (k) (x) has at least r k zeros in [a, b]


We had shown the above by induction.
(2) We can conclude that theres at most r + k zeros for f (since f (k) has exactly r zeros, the intervals containing the r
zeros are definite).

sin x sin y

= | cos c| 1
= cos c =

xy
xy
= | sin x sin y| |x y|
(2) x y > 0.
f (z) = z n is monotonically increasing for n Z.
By mean-value theorem,
xn y n
= ncn1 for y < c < x
xy
ny n1

Since 0 < y < c < x;


Exercise 9. Let g(x) =

f (b)f (a)
ba

x+

xn y n
xy

nxn1 .

bf (a)af (b)
ba

.
h(a) = h(c)

f g =h

h(c) = h(b)
0

so c1 (a, c), c2 (c, b) s. t. h (c1 ) = h0 (c2 ) = 0 by Rolles Thm.


Let h0 = H
since H(c1 ) = H(c2 ) = 0 and H is cont. diff. on (c1 , c2 ). then
c3 (c1 , c2 ) s.t. H 0 (c3 ) = h00 (c3 ) = 0
Now h00 = (f g)00 = f 00 so f 00 (c3 ) = 0
Weve shown one exists; thats enough.
Exercise 10. Assume f has a derivative everywhere on an open interval I.

g(x) =
(1) g =

1
xa

1
xa f (a).

f (x) f (a)
if x 6= a;
xa

f is cont. on (a, b] since f 0

g(a) = f 0 (a)

x (a, b).

1
xa

is cont. on (a, b]. Then g is cont. on (a, b] (remember, you can add, subtract, multiply, and divide cont. functions
to get cont. functions because the rules for taking limits allow so).
(a)
g is cont. at a since limxa g = limxa f (x)f
= f 0 (a).
xa
By mean value theorem,


f (x) f (a)
= f 0 (c) = g(x)
xa

c (a, x)

x (a, b]

Then c [a, b], f 0 (c) ranges from f 0 (a) to g(b) since f 0 (c) = g(x) so whatever g(x) ranges from and to, so does
f 0 (c).
(b)
if x 6= b; h(b) = f 0 (b).
(2) Let h(x) = f (x)f
xb
1
h is cont. on [a, b) since xb
is cont., f (x) is cont.
limxb h = limxb

f (x)f (b)
xb

= f 0 (b) so h is cont. at b.

h is cont. on [a, b] h takes all values from h(a) to f 0 (b) on [a, b] (by intermediate value theorem).
By mean value theorem,
h(x) =

f (b) f (x)
= f 0 (c2 )
bx

for c2 (x, b)

So then f 0 ranges from h(a) to f 0 (b) just like h.


h(a) = g(b). So then f 0 must range from f 0 (a) to f 0 (b)

Exercise 21. Draw a good diagram. Note how the right triangle that you folded is now reflected backwards , so that this

triangles right angle is on the left-hand side now.


The constraint is that the crease touches the left edge.
w0 = l sin + l sin cos (2) = l sin (1 + cos (2)) =
= 2l sin cos2
Note that we will obtain a minimum crease because by considering the physical infinite boundary, we could make a big
crease along the vertical half of the paper or the horizontal half of the paper.

Exercise 22.

(1) Consider the center of the circle O, the apex of the isosceles triangle that makes an angle 2, A, and one of its other
vertices, B. Draw a line segment from O to B and simply consider the two triangles making up one half of the
isosceles triangle. Find all the angles.
Angle AOB is 2 by the geometry or i.e. inspection of the figure. The complement of that angle is 2.
Beforehand, we can get the length of the isosceles triangle leg from the law of cosines.
cos ( 2) = cos (2)
2

s = R + R 2R cos ( 2) + 2R2 (1 + cos (2)) = 2R2 (2 cos2 ) = 4R2 cos2


s = 2R cos
The constraint equation is
P = 4R cos + 2R sin (2)

(2) I had originally thought to Reuse the constraint equation, Eqn. ( ??). This is wrong!
Think about the problem directly and for what it actually is; less wishful thinking.
Consider a fixed perimeter L and imagine L to be a string that can be stretched into an isoceles triangle. A trivial
isoceles triangle is a collapsed triangle with two sides of length L/2 only. Then the radius of the disk needs to be L/4.

Consider a general isosceles triangle with 2 as the vertex angle and isosceles sides of h. The perimeter for this
triangle, P , is then
P = 2h + 2h sin = 2h(1 + sin )
P
= h =
2(1 + sin )
h

However, this is the minimized R, minimized radius for the smallest circle fitting a particular isosceles triangle of a

We also have
a1 (1) 3a0 = 4
a2 (2) 3a1 = 5
a3 (3) 3a2 = 3

= a3 a2 = 1

Then let a2 = 1 and a3 = 0. So we have a1 = 1 and a0 = 1. P (x) = 1 + x + x2 is one possible polynomial


and we were only asked for one.
Suppose Q s.t. Q0 3Q = 4 5x + 3x2 (another solution). Then
(P Q)0 3(P Q) = 0

Since we didnt specify what Q has to be, we find that, in general, any Q is P plus some amount of the homogeneous solution, ke3x .
(2) If Q(x) is a given polynomial, and suppose P is a polynomial solution to P 0 (x) 3P (x) = Q(x). Suppose R is
another polynomial solution such that R0 (x) 3R(x) = Q(x). Then just like above, P R = ke3x . If we wanted
polynomial answers of finite terms, then k must be zero. Thus, theres at most only one polynomial solution P .

In the second to last and last step, we had used (1)n+1 Pn+1 (0) = Pn+1 (0). For n + 1 even, this is definitely true.
If n + 1 was odd,

Exercise 35.

(1) Show that f 0 = rxr1 for f = xr holds for arbitrary real r.


xr = er ln x
r
(er ln x )0 = er ln x = rxr1
x
(2) For x 0, by inspection of xr = er log x , then if xr > 0, then the equality would remain valid. So then xr = |xr | =

Exercise 36. Use the definition ax = ex log a

(1) log ax = x log a


Taking the exponential is a well-defined inverse function to log so taking the log of both sides of the definition, we
get log ax = x log a
(2) (ab)x = ax bx

(ab)x = ex log ab = ex(log a+log b) = ax bx


(3) ax ay = ax+y
ax+y = e(x+y) log a = ex log a ey log a = ax ay
(4) (ax )y = (ay )x = axy
(ax )y = exy log a = (ay )x = axy

Exercise 40. Let f be a function defined everywhere on the real axis. Suppose also that f satisfies the functional equation

f (x + y) = f (x)f (y) for all x and y


(1)
f (0) = f (0)f (0) = f 2 (0)

If f (0) = 0, then were done


If f (0) 6= 0 then f (0) = 1 (by dividing both sides by f (0) )

(2) Take the derivative with respect to x on both sides of the functional equation.

y(x) = Av1 (x) + Bv2 (x)

Exercise 18. Start from y 00 k 2 y = R(x). Suppose L(yp ) = yp00 k 2 yp = R(x).

yh = c1 sinh (kx) + c2 cosh (kx);

L(yh ) = 0

So consider L(yp + yh ) = R(x); yp + yh = y1 is a nother particular solution.

The key to this problem is to apply the integration directly on the ODE itself, not to go the other way around by differentiating the supposed particular solution.

equation of motion is Fg = +M (t)g, where g = 9.8m/s2 .
M (t)v(t) = M vR is the momentum of the rocket.
M (t + h) = M (t) m = M m is the change in mass of the rocket due to spent fuel.
ve = velocity of the exhaust in the lab frame = c + vR (t)
p = m(c + vR ) + (M m)vR (t + h) M vR = M (vR (t + h) vR ) + m(vR (t + h) vR ) + mc

Exercise 28. Choose the units for time to be in days first - we can convert into years later.

If no one died from accidental death, then the population will grow by e. That means, with x = x(t) being the population at
time t
dx
= x = x = Cet
dt
which makes sense because if C is the original population number, then after 1 year, x = Ce.
1
With t in days, we have a decrease of 100
x in population each day due to death. Add up the changes from the decrease
due to deaths and the increase due to growth for the DE:

Change t units to years by multiplying the time constant

x = 365 exp (2.65t)


To get the total fatalities, simply integrate the deaths during each year.

f (0) = 0

(1) y 0 (0) = 0 as easily seen. Now y 00 = (4yy +1)(3y(3y
, so then
2 +5)2
1
00
y (0) = 5 > 0. It is a minimum.
(2) f 0 (x) 2/3 x 10/3. a = 2/3 since f will be above this tangent line.
Suppose, in the worst case, f 0 (x) = 0 for 0 x 2/3. Then f (x) = 0 for 0 x 2/3. Then the tangent line
must be at y = 0 at x = 10/3 to remain below the graph of f (x).

= 23 x 20/9 < f (x)


173

(3) Since f 0 (x) 23 for each x 10


3 , then f for x (otherwise, f would have to decrease somewhere, which
would contradict the given fact about f ). Rewrite the DE for y 0 to be
y0 =

5

Now y must, at the very least, have some linear increase because we had already shown that y 0 23 .

So y 2 would go to infinity faster than linear x. Thus limx y 0 = 23 . So then (3 +

Exercise 31. Given a function f which satisfies the differential equation xf 00 (x) + 3x(f 0 (x))2 = 1 ex

(1) c 6= 0 for an extrenum.


cf 00 (c) + 3c(f 0 (c))2 = cf 00 (c) = 1 ec
(2) Cleverly, consider the limit.

xf 00 (x) + 3x(f 0 (x))2 = 1 ex = f 00 (x) + 3(f 0 (x))2 =

f 00 (0) + 0 = 1

So a critical point at x = 0 would be a minimum.


(3) Well have to cheat a little and use the idea of power series early on here.
f 00 + 3(f 0 )2 =

suggests that we consider the Taylor series of ex .

simply a combination of infinitely many terms containing powers of x.

Exercise 7. The three ordering axioms are

Ax. 7 If x, y R+ , x + y, xy R+
Ax. 8 x 6= 0, x R+ or x R+ but not both
Ax. 9 0
/ R+
x < y means y x positive.
Suppose i positive: i(i) = 1 but 1 is not positive.
Suppose i is positive. i(i) = 1 but 1 is not positive.
i is neither positive nor negative so Ax. 8 is not satisfied.
Exercise 8. Ax. 8 , Ax. 9 are satisfied.

(a + ib)(c + id) = (ac bd, ad + bc) so Ax. 7 might not be satisfied.


Exercise 9. Ax. 7, Ax. 8 , Ax. 9 are trivially satisfied (all are positive).
Exercise 10. x > y x > y is well defined. Ax. 8 is satisfied.

For Ax. 7, ( 32 , 1), (1, 12 ) contradicts Ax. 7 since we required the product to be positive as well if the factors are positive.
We found this particular counterexample by considering factors (a, b), (c, d), so the product of the two is (ac bd, ad + bc)
and so we need ac bd ad bc = a(c d) b(c + d) < 0

To show divergence, we usually think of either taking the general term and finding the limit (and if it goes to a nonzero
constant, then it diverges), or we use ratio, root, comparison test on the general term. Since this is an alternating series, Ive
observed that the general term is a sum of two adjacent terms, one even and one odd.

kX F k = e|(X F ) N + d|
Let N = ~ex ; d = 2c; F = (c, 0); e = 1.
(x c)2 + y 2 = e2 ((x c) + 2c)2 = (x c)2 + 4c(x c) + 4c2

Let N = ~ey , d = 2c; F = (0, c), e = 1.

Exercise 17.

(1) If we treat the two given parabolas, y 2 = 4p(x a) and x2 = 4qy, as two vector objects free from any specific
coordinate system then we observe that we can disregard the sign of q and p and simply state that they are both
positive. What matters is that we observe that p and q are the distance of the foci to the vertex for each of the
respective parabolas.
Second, observe that a is not given. By diagram, if p, q are given, a must be moved along the x-axis to fit the
tangency condition. Thus, in terms of doing the algebra, just eliminate p and q from the relations.
If (h, k) is the point of contact,

Exercise 18. First hint: Vector methods triumph over algebraic manipulations of Cartesian coordinates. Think of the locus
2

in terms of vector objects that are coordinate-free and the conic section will emerge. I mean, try evaluating kP Ak =
(x 2)2 + (x 3)2 = (x + y)2
A = (2, 3), N = 12 (1, 1), X = (x, y).

kX Ak = x + y = 2(X N ) = 2(X N (F N d))


where F N = d = A N = 52
d = distance from focus to the directrix .
y = x + 1 (axis of the hyperbola)
p

d = 52 = (2 x)2 + (3 y)2 = 2(2 x)


x = 12 , y = 12

By similar procedure, I found that quadrant III, IV cannot satisfy the condition.

Thus S S since the defining differential equation is invariant under the transformation of the slope.
Exercise 21. For a circle centered at C, then kX Ck = r02 for all points X on that circle.

For the condition of being tangent to a given line, L = P + tA, then (XC C) A = 0 and the point lies on the circle so
kXC Ck = r02 .
Call the point that all the circles pass through F . Then kC F k = kC XC k. kC XC k is by definition d(X, L), the
distance from the circle center to the line. kC F k = kC X0 k is by definition a parabola.
Exercise 22. Consider a circle thats part of the mentioned family that has its center directly below the given circle with radius

r0 , and center Q.
Its given that the center is equidistant from the point of tangency and the line. This hints at a parabola because the parabolas
230

vertex is equidistant from the focus and the directrix. Thus, we need to show that d(X, L) is equal to the distance from the
circle center C to the bottom point of Q.
Let N be a unit normal vector pointing from the line towards the focus, placing the focus in the positive half-plane.
Let C be the center of an arbitrary circle in the family and r1 its radius.
Let X1 be the point of tangency between circle Q and circle C.
We want k(Q + r0 N ) Ck = kX2 Ck.
The tangency condition between circle Q and C means that
r1
(X1 C) = (X1 Q); > 0
=
r0
Q r0 N C = Q X1 r0 N C + X1
take the magnitude

kQ X1 k + kX1 Ck + r02 + 2(Q X1 )(X1 C) + 2(X1 Q)r0 N + 2(C X)r0 N


r02 + r12 + r02 + 2r02 + 2r0 (1 + )(x1 Q) N
2r02 + r12 + 2r1 r0 + 2(r1 + r0 )(X1 Q) N
I had thought the key is to use the law of cosines to evaluate (X1 Q) N =

1
(C

X1 ) N .

Length l = d(X, L) = d(C, L).


But that just gets us back to the same place.
I had found the solution by a clever construction. But to come to that conclusion it required me to be unstuck - if
something doesnt work, move onto the next - dont try to make something work and go in circles. And persistence is key
because there can be many false eurekas.
Again, consider a particular circle with its center C2 right below the given Q circle that just makes C2 tangent with
the given line L2 . The directrix is not going to be L2 but L1 , a line translated below L2 , line of tangency, by r0 , so that
kQ C2 k = r2 + r0 = d(C2 , L1 ). It is a clever artificial construction.
Lets show this for any circle C of radius r1 in the family.
Tangent to the circle Q condition: X1 C = (Q X1 ).
So then kQ Ck = r1 + r0
Tangent to the line L2 = B2 + tA2 : (X2 C) A2 = 0
kX2 Ck = r1
Consider L1 , a line translated by r0 from L2 away from Q.
If L2 = B2 + tA2 ,

L1 = B2 r0 N + tA2 .

Since X2 C = r1 (N ) then X2 r0 N C = (r1 + r0 )(N ) will point from C to L1 , because (X2 r0 N ) =


((B2 + tA2 ) r0 N ) L1 .
= kQ Ck = r1 + r0 = kX2 r0 N Ck = d(C, L1 ).
Exercise 23. Without loss of generality, use y 2 = 4cx.

The latus rectum intersect the parabola at (c, +2c), (c, 2c).
Thus 4c = length of latus rectum = 2d = 2( distance from focus to directrix ).


y = 2 cx y 0 = c/ x y 0 (c) = 1
Tangent lines: y = (x + c).
intersection

+(x + c) = (x + c) x = c (at the directrix)
