Edexcel IGCSE Maths 10th June 2011 4H

Apparently , the hard questions are worth less marks , and the easy questions are worth more marks. Xoz if you dont know how to do the harder questions, you lose a lot more marks if it was worth more marks, and you mite even drop a grade even if you've done well throughout the paper.

What do peeps think they'll get? I think i'll get A*.

Ah okay, who knows, you might have gotten the same answer?

Overall I was really happy, happier than with the 3H and I was pretty happy on that one too :P there weren't as many tricky questions on this one, which maybe means the grade boundaries will be higher but.. hopefully I haven't made too many silly mistakes, since I usually realise afterwards and I haven't remembered any yet. It was a horrible moment when I remembered that the 3H probability question said 'without replacement' ><

How about you, how did you find it?

(to the tune of pop goes the weasel)

half the sum of the parallel sides
times the distance between them
that is how you calculate
the area of trapeziums

ps the formula for the area was on the formula sheet xx

Are you sure...? cox didnt you have to do..

{(2/3) + 1} divided by 2/3?? which is 2.5 methinks..

Hope so.
Good Same, I found it better than 3H, which I found extremely hard. I don't think they'll be any higher than usual, as it definitely wasn't as easy as some of the past papers have been. Ah, too bad. I stupidly didn't read the surds question correctly and left my answer as 10root3 I think I should still get 1/2 marks though as I showed correct working.




Ahahaha, nice song I used the formula, but I'm not sure if it was correct :L




I don't know, but I checked in my calculator and a=4 worked, plus many other people got 4. Perhaps look at the answers when they're posted later to help you

Did everyone get root50 as k for the surds q? I'm fairly sure i somehow managed to right k=3 for the vectors question even though my working pointed to k being four. Exam pressure i suppose. The only question i didn't know how to do was the Claire's shares one, I'm guessing most people are in the same boat.

Yeah hopefully you'll get some, method marks ftw!

It was 4, I think what we both did is work out gf(x)=3 instead of gf(a)=3 cos we both got 2.5.

how long until answers are posted ?!

I already ****ing posted the answers, i guarentee theyre all right ffs

also to the people saying that they got 2.5for the functions

it would be the answer if it saif gf(3)
there is no difference in saying gf(x)=3 and gf(a)=3 (just a change in letter)..well thats embarrassing

It was the ticket question where the area and length of the smaller one was 2 and 7, and the length of the larger one was 6 and you had to work out the area :/ did anyone else get 21 for this?

and yh i got 5root2 x root6, but what working did you show?

I got 10root3... I guess I just simplified it a little more...

It had to be in the form of root6. 10root3 is correct, but not what they asked for.

The question that asked about root6. Was the answer 5root2 times root6?
Who put the 3H paper online? Whoever it is can he/she put the 4H paper as well? I would really appreciate it.

It was 63 i think!
