what did you use for the triangle q sine invers or tan invers ?


Which triangle sorry? There was definitely more than one.

can someone tell me all the sides and angles that there where on the pentagon question?

You put an apostrophe after 'A' in 'A's'. Clearly one of the A*s isn't in English...


You can use an apostrophe after a plural noun if it is an abbreviation or stands for something else. For example A*s or A*'s are both correct. Similarly, you can say IGCSEs or IGCSE's

K<(or equal to) 2.5
And the greatest number k could = was 2

The gradient was 4/3 so y=4/3x-1

The person got 3,100 rupees


OMG thats what I got. I feel a bit confident now lol

you need to convert the 3100 to %

for the differentiation question for the part b where it asked for the time at with acceleration is zero i got 2 seconds which I'm sure is right

You know that the third answer he put down is wrong, right? You were supposed to give Bhavin's (I think that was his name) new share of the money over the total 6000 rupees and you were supposed to multiply it by 100 to get like 52%.

Cannot remember question number, 16 I think.
Volume of the vase was 102 cm^3.
Working out:
ASF = 120/750 = 0.16
LSF = ASF square rooted, = square root of 0.16 = 0.4.
VSF = LSF cubed, = 0.064
Therefore volume = 0.064*1600 = 102.4 cm^3
=102 cm^3 (3s.f.)

Yes, you can use it possessively, or as indication of a contraction. In the example, neither are the case.

80% a*
65% a
58% b


Nah B is usually around 42%

Yeah for the first part of the question I differentiated the equation to get the answer. For the second part I differentiated again and put the new equation to=0 and I solved it and T equalled 2 seconds.

52% is correct:
Working out:
Ratio was 2:3:7 (Bhavin:Max:s-smilie:omeone else)
2+3+7=12
3000/12=500
Bhavin 500*2=1000
Someone else = 500*7=3500
3/5*3500=2100
2100+1000=3100
(3100/6000)*100=51.6 recurring = 52% as a whole number.
Guys dw we still have paper 4H to screw up!

They asked for it to the nearest whole number, you probably lost 1 mark only.

I swear that for the cube question, it was 4.75cm for the upper bound for each cube length and then it was 2.5mm radius for the lower bound of the spehre and then 4.75 into mm= 475. And because the radius of the sphere was 2.5, the diameter was 5mm. So in one line of spheres going up the metal cube there would have been 475/5= 95 and then you do 95 cubed to get the number of spheres which is 867,375 because you can't use the whole cube to make spheres because they have don't fit perfectly into a cube and there will be wasted space

I think you want to be looking at the volume of the sphere rather than the diameter for that question.

2 sides were 12 cm long, 2 were 8 cm long - the other side was not given. The angle between the 12 cm and 8 cm lines was 105 degrees
