Space is referred to the orthonormal frame $(\mathrm{O}, \vec{\imath}, \vec{\jmath}, \vec{k})$. We consider the plane $\mathscr{P}$ with equation $2x + y - 2z + 4 = 0$ and the points A with coordinates $(3; 2; 6)$, B with coordinates $(1; 2; 4)$, and C with coordinates $(4; -2; 5)$.

  2. a. Show that the triangle ABC is right-angled. b. Write a system of parametric equations for the line $\Delta$ passing through O and perpendicular to the plane $\mathscr{P}$. c. Let K be the orthogonal projection of O onto $\mathscr{P}$. Calculate the distance OK. d. Calculate the volume of the tetrahedron OABC.
  3. We consider, in this question, the system of weighted points $$S = \{(\mathrm{O}, 3), (\mathrm{A}, 1), (\mathrm{B}, 1), (\mathrm{C}, 1)\}$$ a.

Q2a 5 marks Complex numbers 2 Geometric Interpretation in the Complex Plane View
Exercise 2 (Candidates who have not followed the specialization course)
The complex plane is referred to the direct orthonormal frame $(\mathrm{O}, \vec{u}, \vec{v})$. Let $R$ be the rotation of the plane with centre $\Omega$, with affix $\omega$ and angle of measure $\theta$. The image by $R$ of a point in the plane is therefore defined as follows:
  • $R(\Omega) = \Omega$
  • for any point $M$ in the plane, distinct from $\Omega$, the image $M'$ of $M$ is defined by $$\Omega M' = \Omega M \text{ and } (\overrightarrow{\Omega M}, \overrightarrow{\Omega M'}) = \theta \quad [2\pi].$$
We recall that, for points $A$ and $B$ with affixes $a$ and $b$ respectively, $$AB = |b - a| \text{ and } (\vec{u}, \overrightarrow{AB}) = \arg(b - a) \quad [2\pi]$$
  1. Show that the affixes $z$ and $z'$ of any point $M$ in the plane and its image $M'$ by the rotation $R$ are related by the relation $$z' - \omega = \mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{i}\theta}(z - \omega).$$
  2. We consider the points I and B with affixes $z_{\mathrm{I}} = 1 + \mathrm{i}$ and $z_{\mathrm{B}} = 2 + 2\mathrm{i}$ respectively. Let $R$ be the rotation with centre B and angle of measure $\frac{\pi}{3}$. a. Give the complex form of $R$. b. Let A be the image of I by $R$. Calculate the affix $z_{\mathrm{A}}$ of A. c. Show that O, A and B lie on the same circle with centre I. Deduce that OAB is a right-angled triangle at A. Give a measure of the angle $(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{OA}}, \overrightarrow{\mathrm{OB}})$. d. Deduce a measure of the angle $(\vec{u}, \overrightarrow{\mathrm{OA}})$.
  3. Let $T$ be the translation of vector $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{IO}}$. We set $\mathrm{A}' = T(\mathrm{A})$. a. Calculate the affix $z_{\mathrm{A}'}$ of $\mathrm{A}'$. b. What is the nature of the quadrilateral OIAA'? c. Show that $-\frac{\pi}{12}$ is an argument of $z_{\mathrm{A}'}$.
Q2b 5 marks Complex numbers 2 Complex Mappings and Transformations View
Exercise 2 (Candidates who have followed the specialization course)
We assume the following results are known:
  • the composition of two plane similarities is a plane similarity;
  • the inverse transformation of a plane similarity is a plane similarity;
  • a plane similarity that leaves three non-collinear points of the plane invariant is the identity of the plane.

  1. Let A, B and C be three non-collinear points in the plane and $s$ and $s'$ be two similarities of the plane such that $s(\mathrm{A}) = s'(\mathrm{A})$, $s(\mathrm{B}) = s'(\mathrm{B})$ and $s(\mathrm{C}) = s'(\mathrm{C})$. Show that $s = s'$.
  2. The complex plane is referred to the orthonormal frame $(\mathrm{O}, \vec{u}, \vec{v})$. We are given the points A with affix $2$, E with affix $1 + \mathrm{i}$, F with affix $2 + \mathrm{i}$ and G with affix $3 + \mathrm{i}$. a. Calculate the lengths of the sides of the triangles OAG and OEF. Deduce that these triangles are similar. b. Show that OEF is the image of OAG by an indirect similarity $S$, by determining the complex form of $S$. c. Let $h$ be the homothety with centre O and ratio $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$. We set $\mathrm{A}' = h(\mathrm{A})$ and $\mathrm{G}' = h(\mathrm{G})$, and we call I the midpoint of $[\mathrm{EA}']$. We denote by $\sigma$ the orthogonal symmetry with axis (OI). Show that $S = \sigma \circ h$.

The complex plane is equipped with a direct orthonormal coordinate system $(\mathrm{O}, \vec{u}, \vec{v})$ (graphical unit: 4 cm). Let A be the point with affixe $z_{\mathrm{A}} = \mathrm{i}$ and B the point with affixe $z_{\mathrm{B}} = \mathrm{e}^{-\mathrm{i}\frac{5\pi}{6}}$.
  1. Let $r$ be the rotation with centre O and angle $\frac{2\pi}{3}$. Let C denote the image of B by $r$. a. Determine a complex expression for $r$. b. Show that the affixe of C is $z_{\mathrm{C}} = \mathrm{e}^{-\mathrm{i}\frac{\pi}{6}}$. c. Write $z_{\mathrm{B}}$ and $z_{\mathrm{C}}$ in algebraic form. d. Plot the points A, B and C.

  2. We define the sequence $(u_n)_{n \geqslant 0}$ by its general term $u_n = \int_n^{n+1} f(x)\,\mathrm{d}x$. a. Justify that, if $n \leqslant x \leqslant n+1$, then $f(n+1) \leqslant f(x) \leqslant f(n)$. b. Show, without attempting to calculate $u_n$, that, for every natural integer $n$, $$f(n+1) \leqslant u_n \leqslant f(n).$$ c. Deduce that the sequence $(u_n)$ is convergent and determine its limit.

Q4 6 marks Binomial Distribution Compute Cumulative or Complement Binomial Probability View
To conduct a survey, an employee interviews people chosen at random in a shopping mall. He wonders whether at least three people will agree to answer.
  1. In this question, we assume that the probability that a person chosen at random agrees to answer is 0.1. The employee interviews 50 people independently. We consider the events: $A$: ``at least one person agrees to answer'' $B$: ``fewer than three people agree to answer'' $C$: ``three or more people agree to answer''. Calculate the probabilities of events $A$, $B$ and $C$. Round to the nearest thousandth.
  2. Let $n$ be a natural integer greater than or equal to 3. In this question, we assume that the random variable $X$ which, to any group of $n$ people interviewed independently, associates the number of people who agreed to answer, follows the probability distribution defined by: $$\left\{\begin{array}{l}\text{For every integer } k \text{ such that } 0 \leqslant k \leqslant n-1,\; P(X = k) = \frac{\mathrm{e}^{-a} a^k}{k!}\\\text{and } P(X = n) = 1 - \sum_{k=0}^{n-1} P(X=k)\end{array}\right.$$
