You will prob lose the final accuracy mark in each part

Just read the question... It says sector not triangle.

You don't get marks for making up your own question and the answering it, even if correct.

how many marks would i have lost for 3(d) if i worked out PQ using the cos formula for a side and got 8 instead of 9.275?? and subbed 8 in and got 18 for PTQ.
and how many would you lose for 8(e) i got 9pie somehow but the rest of my working out for the question was right??

For the integration question, did no one else work out the area under the curve and subtract the area under the line?

I forgot to give 90 for the trigonometry question.
That's my only mistake.
A stupid one at that.
What is the UMS mark I can expect?

It will probably be about 98 or 97.

guys for part c) circle my method was correct how many marks would i lose?
and for the factor therom i sub and got 0 but did not say is factor but showed working and mentions equal to 0 and this is what the mark scheme says f ( 1) 0 − = with no sign or substitution
errors and for conclusion.

i didnt study the proof so i left it and had 45 mins left to complete it at the end i made up my own proof and it turned out to be correct

Firstly, if everything but the answer is right then you'll only lose a mark.
Secondly, it's okay if you substituted the correct factor in and got 0, you'll at least get the mark for working and probably the mark for concluding too because they can see that you knew what to do.
Thirdly, please stop quoting me just to get my attention. I'm sure your questions will get answered by someone who doesn't have an exam in a couple of hours :P
