The answer to Q25 was no.

This was the method I used (now realised its not technically right but i got the answer so i shall pray for mercy marks)

8/4= 2 for the area of the equilateral triangle

all the angles are 60, so if you split the triangle its 30 at the top

sin 30 is 1/2 so the opposite is 1 and the hypotenuse is 2 (so both sides are 2) - obvs this isnt right but like the principle is oops

use pythag: 2^2 - 1^2 = 3

and root 3 is 1.7 something so no he cant fit


THE CORRECT METHOD: (love how i realise this as soon as i leave)

so area of cross section = 2

area of a triangle is 1/2absinC

2 / 0.5 = 4

4/ sin 60 = 4.618802154

square root that because the triangle is equalatrial = 2.149139864

and then 1/2 x base x height = 2

so height i=2/ 0.5x 2.144

= 1.861209718 so no he cannot fit

CANNOT COPE WITH THE FACT I USED THE WRONG METHOD, hoping ill get some marks

what did u get for the 130 loaves thingy question?

did you find these answers online or are they your own?

U had to find the ratio for each one and it came to white:6 brown :3 and seeded :1 which all together cam to 10 so u did 130/10=13 and then u times 13 by each breads number and u gt
78white
39 brown
13 seeded

What Did People Get For The Cosine Rule Question I got 60 Degrees As The Angle?

What was the sector question i got 11??????

the sector one 3 marker
