to extend the graph you either join an existing vertex to another
existing vertex, which increases e by 1 and f by 1 so that v + f e
remains equal to 2
or add a new vertex and a corresponding edge, which increases e
by 1 and v by 1 so that v + f e remains equal to 2
therefore, however we build up the graph, the relation remains valid

we work modulo 3 throughout
the values of a, b, c, d can only be 0, 1, 2
since there are 4 variables but only 3 possible values, at least 2 of the

the product is therefore 0 (mod 3)

for the product
we work modulo 3 throughout
we note first that none of the differences can be zero
a b can therefore only be 1 or 2
suppose it is 1, then b c can only be 1
since if it is 2, (a b) + (b c) 3 0(mod 3)
c d cannot now be 1 because if it is
(a b) + (b c) + (c d) = a d 3 0(mod 3)
c d cannot now be 2 because if it is
(b c) + (c d) = b d 3 0(mod 3)
we cannot therefore find values of c and d to give the required result
a similar argument holds if we suppose a b is 2, in which case b c must
be 2 and we cannot find a value of c d
the product is therefore 0 (mod 3)

M1A2

we see that the only possible values so far are 2, 3 and 6


also, the table suggests that these values repeat themselves but we have
to prove this
let f(n) = n2 + 2n + 3, consider
f(n + 4) f(n) = (n + 4)2 + 2(n + 4) + 3 n2 2n 3
= 8n + 24
since 8n + 24 is divisible by 8,
f(n + 4) = f(n)(mod 8)
this confirms that the values do repeat every 4 values of n so that 2, 3 and 6
are the only values taken for all values of n

now n5 n = n(n4 1)

hence one of the first two factors must be even
i.e. n5 n 0 (mod 2)
thus n5 n is divisible by 5 and 2
hence it is divisible by 10

the zeros of P1 and P2 are equal implies that the sums of the
zeros of P2 and P1 are equal
suppose that P1RP2 and P2RP3
it follows that P1RP3 so R is transitive, because the sum of
the zeros of P1 is equal to the sum of the zeros of P2 which
in turn is equal to the sum of the zeros of P3, which implies
that the sum of the zeros of P1 is equal to the sum of the
zeros of P3
the three requirements for an equivalence relation are
therefore satisfied

339. Suppose the graph is bipartite so that the vertices belong to one of two
disjoint sets M, N.
Then consider any vertex V in M. To generate a cycle returning to V, we
must go to a vertex in N, then to a vertex in M, then to a vertex in N,
then to a vertex in M, etc.
To return to V, therefore, which belongs to M, an even number of steps
will be required.
Now suppose the graph contains only cycles of even length.
Starting at any vertex V, define the set M as containing those vertices
accessible from V in an even number of steps and the set N as
containing those vertices accessible from V in an odd number of steps.
Suppose that the vertex X belongs to both M and N. Then consider the
closed walk from V to X one way and back to V the other way. This
closed walk will be of odd length. This closed walk can be contracted
to a cycle which will also be of odd length, giving a contradiction to
the initial assumption.
There can therefore be no vertices common to M and N, which shows that the
vertices can be divided into two disjoint sets and the graph is bipartite.
Consider any edge joining P to vertex Q. Then either P M in which case
Q N or vice versa. In either case an edge always joins a vertex in M to a
vertex in N so the graph is bipartite.

using the Euclidean Algorithm


901 = 612 + 289
612 = 2 289 + 34
289 = 8 34 + 17
gcd(901, 612) = 17

(M1)
(A1)

working backwards
17 = 289 8 34
= 289 8 (612 2 289)
= 17 (901 612) 8 612
= 17 901 25 612
so p = 17, q = 25

(M1)

a particular solution is
s = 5p = 85, t = 5q = 125
the general solution is
s = 85 + 36, t = 125 + 53
by inspection the solution satisfying all conditions is
( = 2), s = 13, t = 19

(i)

the congruence is equivalent to 9x = 3 + 18


this has no solutions as 9 does not divide the RHS

(ii)

the congruence is equivalent to 3x = 1 + 5, (3x 1(mod5))


one solution is x = 2, so the general solution
is x = 2 + 5n (x 2 (mod 5))

cos n + i sin n = (cos + i sin )n


Let n = 1
Left hand side = cos 1 + i sin 1 = cos + i sin
Right hand side = (cos + i sin )1 = cos + i sin
Hence true for n = 1
Assume true for n = k
cos k + i sin k = (cos + i sin )k
cos(k + 1) + i sin(k + 1) = (cos + i sin )k(cos + i sin )
= (cos k + i sin k)(cos + i sin )
= cos k cos sin k sin + i(cos k sin + sin k cos)
= cos(k + 1) + i sin(k + 1)
Hence if true for n = k, true for n = k + 1
However if it is true for n = 1
true for n = 2 etc.
hence proved by induction
