I was dead disappointed there was no surface area-volume questions, they're easy 10 marks! overall i reckon it went pretty well but that last question with the triangles had me stumped

even i was surprised to see no " show that " questions for differentiation.

secondly.. last question was hard but i managed to get an answer.

my answer was, ( Pi -Root 3 ..whole divided by two ) i guess that was ..similar to this

Once available, it will probably be posted on the Physics And Maths Tutor Facebook/Twitter/G+ page. Typically, they are done by kprime2, but he/she has not been active on TSR for four days, so who knows.
