Edexcel GCSE Mathematics A Higher Paper 2016 Unofficial Markscheme

Sh¡t I got 7 zeros at the end of my answer not 8

So did I. I'm pretty sure that's correct.

The grade boundaries will be pretty high, it was quite an easy exam imo

hahahahha unlucky mate

Hey, if anybody is willing to contribute the answers, and preferably the questions, then I shall set up a mark scheme for you all. Thanks in advance!

Can people please attach question numbers to their answers? Method would be appreciated.

What was the answer to the circle theorems question?

Q?? - Estimate 892/18.9 (or something idk) (2 marks - maybe)
Round to 1sf
900/20 = 45

Q?? - Angle = 69 (4 marks [I think])

180-48-48 = 84 (angles in a triangle sum to 180 & base angles in an isosceles are equal)
84/2 = 42 (angle at the centre is twice the angle at the circumference)
(180-42)/2 = 69 (angles in a triangle sum to 180 & base angles in an isosceles are equal)
Therefore angle = 69 (alternate segment theorem)

Q?? - Angie does not have enough varnish (5 marks)

Total area = (4x10) + (2x2.5x2) = 50 metres squared
Litres required = 50/5 = 10 litres
Angie has = 3 x 2.5 = 7.5 litres
10 litres > 7.5 litres

Q?? - find shaded area of triangles in square= 25(4 - π) (5 marks)

Square = 10x10 = 100 cm squared
Circle = π x 5 squared = 25π
Shaded = 100 - 25π = 25 (4 - π)

Q25 - find the shaded area = 3 - root6/12 (3 marks)

(root2/2 x root2/2)x 1/2 = 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4 cm squared
(root3/3 x root2/2) x 1/2/ = root6/6 x 1/2 = root6/12 cm squared
1/4 - root6/12 = 3/12 - root6/12 = 3 - root6/12

That's all I can remember for now

are u gonna cry?

would 85% be enough for an A*??

would 85% be enough for an A*??

would 85% be enough for an A*??

Sh¡t I got 7 zeros at the end of my answer not 8

69

Probably...it is my GCSE math exam...
Also stop commenting anything that's not math related u scrub
