Sector Q.


Do you by any chance remember what question this was?
Who else got 108 or 105 can;t remember for the polygon question?
1b can also be 9/20
Why was the pentagon question 144? I got 108

Does anyone remember their answer for...22, I think? Making y the subject?

I forgot what the numbers were but I think I got (5b - x)² = y. Not sure whether that's even near the realm of correct but rearranging questions are always hit-and-miss for me.


I got 5b^2-x im not sure though yours is probably right though

I got -2.29 and 0.29
Hated that papwr so much but looking at the markscheme I think I've done okay?? Hopefully they'll lower the grade boundaries because last year was like
99 - B
125 - A
And 150 something for an A*
21. 144 degrees

Yes! Guessed the **** out of that one!

I got something like that. I didn't put brackets though.
Guys for the trigonometry and Pythagoras question with triangles where you must find the missing angle the answer was 30.1° but I misread and got 30° as the answer. What's the max number of marks I could get?? I think I did everything else right...I used tan^-1 and then divided the side lengths I hope that's right????

I put brackets around the whole thing so it didn't imply that I was only squaring the x on the left side and not the whole equation.
You'll get an A.

that's a very scary answer


I'm pretty sure it was three bars
Original post by Pro4TLZZ
can it be 45%


I'm not too sure, if it was 2 marker I imagine you'll get at least 1 mark though.

whoever created this needs to hurry up, and also question 25 is 80.1, period


no its 80.4 but theyll accept 80.1 i think. It depends whether or not you used precise values, by storing in calculator
