Question pack: Algebra and Functions - Quadratics

3d) State a limitation on 'n' for the mining question.

Total can't decrease so n is less than or equal to 20

Question pack: Algebra and Functions - Transformations and graphs

3c) You're shown a graph with two roots. Then a new equation and you're asked to explain the
new number of roots. What do you do?

Graph has been shifted...so new number of intersections with x-axis is...

4) How do you define a region?

'less than' graph < y < 'greater than' graph

Question pack: Trigonometry - Sine and Cosine Rule

1b) Why is your answer unlikely to be accurate to the nearest square metre?

Angles and lengths not given to multiple significant figures e.g. 4 significant figures

6a) How do you calculate the bearing on which the boat is moving?

Do overall displacement vector then do tan to the minus 1 of it, then remember it's from the
north

7b) How do you prove a student's angle solution is wrong?

Put their angle solution back into the original equation and get an incorrect equation
Question pack: Coordinate Geometry - Circles

3) What do you do when you have a circle equation and x=k?

Draw a diagram instead of doing simultaneous equations, because x=k is a vertical line that you
can find, and we're not sure if replacing x and getting y and k without any x means you can still
use the quadratic discriminant thing

4ii) Given that C2 lies entirely in the 4th quadrant, find the range of possible values for k.

Draw a diagram and see what radius length is needed to stay in the 4th quadrant, then equate
that to what you algebraically found the radius to be, then remember a radius has to be above
zero

9) You have a circle with radius r, touching the axes and remaining in the first quadrant. What's
the equation?

(x-r)^2 + (y-r)^2 = r^2

3) Show how to do it.

6) Show how to do it.

ON = OA + lambdaCN, yes lambda can represent bigger parts not just fractional parts!

Then say the coefficient for ‘a’ is zero, solve for lambda, plug into each and you’re good
