what did everyone get for the square-based pyramid question - 2.92 or 5.78

If you got 5.78, you used x as the first calculation, instead of 0.5x, which you were meant to.

For the degree of accuracy question did you guys get 89 or 90??

Yeah

Guys for the 2.92 question, I did random algebra at first then crossed it out and did substitution instead. I did this in like just 2 mins before the exam finishes so I just wrote little workings. Do you think I will get all the marks (I drew out the triangles and added dimensions and got 2.92)?

It’s 90 because the only value that they both rounded to the same thing was 1sf which was 90.

Reply 56

Yep, 90, both lower bound and upper bound agreed at 90 when rounded to 1sf.
