Yeah, ha. Although with some of those questions in that paper I probably wouldn't have even got them if I revised all night!

Maybe but normally the boundary for A* is around 87, so the boundaries that I have predicted are lower than normal
and some people may have actually found the test easy

For question 17 could you not have proved that each angle were equal, in turn, with theorems?

You probably need to elaborate on what you mean by this.

17. Geometrical Proof
Use angle sum of triangle equals 180 degrees to prove result (3 marks)

21. Equation of a straight line
a) Gradient

= -\frac{1}{2}

(2 marks)
b)

y=-\frac{x}{2} + 5

(2 marks)

Hi Mr M! how many marks do you think i'd get if i used 'angles on a straight line add up to 180' on Q17) for my proof

and if I wrote

y=-\frac{1}{2} + 5

for 21b)

Thanks a lot!
