i found it quite easy tbh but after the exam i realised i made the most stupidest mistake on the circle theorom one
It was bad for me as i lost around 8 marks because of the last question and also cause i didn't attempt the probability one about the coin toss
i didnt understand that one i just wrote anything

basically i did 90+90+76 and that = 256 i forgot to take it away from 360 but then i halfed it before taking it away i think i will get at least 1 mark cuz i wrote the reasoning along side it

for the pot one i found the scale factore by dividing the surface areas and square rooted so the scale factor should be 1.5 then to find the height of the bigger shape i multiplied the scale factor by the height of the smaller one
