 1.

A, B, C and D are four points on an air field. A is due north of D, B is due east of D, and angle BDC =
39.16o. The distance DA = 1.7km, DB = 4.3 km and DC = 2.8km. Calculate

(i) angle BAD

(ii) the bearing of B from A

(iii) the area of the triangular piece of land BDC

(iv) the distance BC.

2. (a) At an international college, students have to be proficient in at least one of the languages,
English, French, or German.

In a particular group of 33 students, 2 are proficient in all three languages, 3 in English and
French only, 4 in French and German only and 5 in German and English only. The number of
proficient in English only is 𝑥, in French only is 𝑥 and in German only is (𝑥 + 1).

Illustrate this information by a clearly labeled Venn diagram, showing the number in each
separate region.

3. In the diagram OP = a and OS = b.

(i) Express SP in terms of a and b.

(ii) Given that SX = hSP, show that OX = ℎa + (1 − ℎ )b.

(iii) Given that OQ = 3a and QR = 2b, write down an expression for OR in terms of a and b.

(iv) Given that OX = kOR, use the results of parts (ii) and (iii) to find the values of h and k.

./
(v) Find the numerical value of the ratio /0 .
4. Answer the whole of this question on a sheet of graph paper.
This table gives the 𝑥 and 𝑦 coordinates of some points which lie on a curve.

𝑥 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5
𝑦 5 2 0 -1 -1 0 2 5

(a) Taking 2cm to represent 1unit on each axis, and values of 𝑥 and 𝑦 from -2 to , plot these
points and draw a smooth curve through them. [3]

(b) Write down the equation of the line of symmetry of this curve. [1]

(c) The points (3.7, k) and (h, k) lie on the curve. Use your graph to find the value of h and k.
[2]

(d) By drawing a tangent, find the gradient of the curve at the origin. [2]

(e) The values of 𝑥 and 𝑦 are related by the equation 𝑦 = 𝐴𝑥 3 + 𝐵𝑥

(i) Use the fact that the point (4, 2) lies on the curve to show that 8𝐴 + 2𝐵 = 1. [1]

(ii) Use another point on the curve to find a second equation connecting 𝐴 and 𝐵. Hence
calculate the value of 𝐴 and 𝐵. [3]
5. (a) The diagram represents the speed-time graph of a moving object.

(i) Calculate the speed of the object when t = 4. [2]

(ii) Calculate the distance travelled in the first 15sec. [2]

(iii) Given that the rate at which the objects slows down after t= 15 is equal to half the rate at
which it accelerates during the first 6sec, calculate the time at which it stops. [2]

3 −1
(b) A = 8 ; B = 8 5 0;
2 0 −2 4
(i) Evaluate 3A - 2B. [2]
 (ii) Find the inverse of A. [2]

(iii) Given that AX = B, find the matrix X. [2]

6. (a)

Square tiles, of side 𝑥 centimeters, are to be stuck to a wall so that they fill a rectangular space
240cm by 160cm. Some of tiles are shown in Diagram 1.
(i) Write down an expression, in terms of 𝑥, for the number of tiles that will fit across the
top row. [1]

(ii) Given that 600tiles are required to fill the whole space, calculate 𝑥. [3]
(b)

Diagram 2 shows another rectangular space which is 240cm by 160cm. This is to have one row
of rectangular tiles stuck inside each edge so that they cover the unshaded area only. The tiles
measure 𝑦 cm by (𝑦 − 5) cm. Each tile is placed so that its longer side is vertical Some of the
tiles are shown in the diagram.
(i) Write down an expression in terms of 𝑦 for the number of tiles that will fit across the
top row. [1]

(ii) Given that 44tiles are required to fill the whole unshaded area. Form an equation and
show that it reduces to 3𝑦 3 − 65𝑦 + 100 = 0 [3]

(iii) Solve this equation and hence find the length of the shorter side of a tile. [4]
7. Answer part (i) in a sheet of graph paper and the rest of the question on the back of the same
sheet.

As a test of general knowledge, 200 pupils from a city school had to mark the names of as many
streets as they could on a map of the area. The results are given in the following table. For
example, 12 pupils named 46 streets correctly and so on.

No. of 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53

(i) Draw the frequency polygon of this distribution, using the following scales.
On the horizontal axis, take values of x from 46 to 53 at a scale of 2cm to represent 1 street.
On the vertical axis, take values of f from 0 to 50 at a scale of 2cm to represent 10 pupils.

(ii) For this distribution, find

(a) the mode [2]

(b) the median [2]

(iii) Copy and complete the following table, which uses an assumed mean of 50.

No. of streets No. of pupils 𝒙 − 𝟓𝟎 𝒇(𝒙 − 𝟓𝟎)

(x) (f)

47 25
48 46
49 44
50 30

Total = 200 Total =

(iv) Hence, or otherwise, calculate the mean of the distribution.
