That was terrible. Well the first few were okay but the last 3 questions were difficult. what did you guys get for the height of the cylinder?

Not a pleasant paper at all. Some questions I'd never seen before the like the one where we had to show to P^n+2 is a factor... As well as the last couple questions...

How were we meant to find the area of the triangle in the question where we were given a pentagon with each side lengthed 10cm? And what did you get for the original price of copper when it was reduced by $1530 or so?

I think copper cost 6600, I think can't remember properly. For the triangle pentagon , had to find the length of the isosceles side of the triangle then use Pythagoras to find the height
