volume of water: 117 pi
last question: (r6 - r3)/12

Can anyone remember what was the circle area in that square question. I think I misread the question and did 'area minus circles area' in pi. Disappointed I missed easy marks lol

i think i had pi 16?

did anyone else get y=1/4x + 17/4 ??
And for the Pi question 117 Pi??

Yes that's what everyone was saying it was but I misread the question, will hopefully get one or two method marks

oh right sorry, i misunderstood you!

the question was "the area of the square is 64cm^2, the circle fits inside and touches the sides, calculate the area of the circle" if i recall.

I completely messed up, I missed quite a few questions out. I thought I was good at surds but had a brain freeze and left them. the frequency table I did as a histogram, I couldn't work out the formula for the line, as I couldn't find C (don't ask), I panicked on the glasses thing and abandoned it as I was taking too long, last question I didn't really get as I inputted the sine and tang values, rationalised the denominator, but couldn't get it in the answer there require. I abandoned the median/range question because it looked like it would take too long and would just come back to it - I didn't as I run out of time, I got the translation of the triangle wrong, it was little to big, I seemed to think it was the other way around. Hoping to pull it around on the other two calculator questions.... oh dear.

it was just the area of the square is 64cm so u had to square root that which gave you the length across (the diameter)

so you have that ( it was 8) which give you 4.

The use the radius to do pie x 4squared. = 16Pi i think

What did you guys put for the bottle one and the glasses one (that one baffeled me )

Was the last question unanswerable? You had to get tan(60) * 4 as an integer, but it comes out to being 4 root 3? Even when trying to cancel down with surds, I couldn't get it to cancel down.

you couldn't simplify, it was impossible
