Question 1. The graph of y = tan x is drawn for 0° ≤ x ≤ 360°. Write down the equations of the vertical asymptotes.
Sketching sin, cos & tan▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- B1: x = 90°
- B1: x = 270°
Answer: x = 90° and x = 270°[2 marks] - 2
Question 2. Mia reflects the graph of y = x² - 6x in the x-axis and writes the new equation as y = -x² - 6x Explain her mistake and write down the correct equation
Reflections in the x- & y-Axes▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- B1: every term must change sign, so -6x becomes +6x
- B1: y = -x² + 6x
Answer: y = -x² + 6x[2 marks] - 3
Question 3. The sum of two numbers is 9
The sum of their squares is 45
Work out the two numbersSolving Quadratic Simultaneous Equations▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: x² + (9 - x)² = 45 so x² - 9x + 18 = 0
- M1: (x - 3)(x - 6) = 0
- A1: 3 and 6
Answer: 3 and 6[3 marks] - 4
Question 4. Of 80 pupils, 30 play football, 25 play rugby and 15 play both. A pupil who plays at least one of the sports is chosen. Find the probability that they play both.
Conditional Probability with Venn Diagrams▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: at least one = 30 + 25 - 15 = 40
- M1: dfrac1540
- A1: dfrac38
Answer: dfrac38[3 marks] - 5
Question 5. Rationalise the denominator of dfrac14 - √5
Give your answer in its simplest form.Rationalising Denominators of the Form a ± √b▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: multiply the numerator and the denominator by 4 + √5
