    To be honest I kinda feel dissapointed. My teacher did not teach us about perpendicular and circle theorems. I new I couldve done it if he taught us!!

    Well most of us did modular. But if you think you got 170 that could be an a*. But only if you did not make other mistakes. But sounds like an A* to me
    My target is a B.

    Ended up with y=-x+10 for the perpendicular question, apart from that I found the exam pretty easy.
    Last question I got x-5/2x^2, surds i got 2root6 and recurring decimal as fraction I got 23/90.

    I got 137.5 as well, you might get a mark or two for doing the right rearranging. It will probably be 54 for an A*
