Section A (Q1–8)

Q1 [2]
$AC = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = 13$ cm.
$\sin \angle BAC = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{BC}{AC} = \frac{12}{13}$.
Teaching note: In right triangle, sine of angle = opposite side ÷ hypotenuse. Opposite to ∠BAC is BC.
Answer: $\frac{12}{13}$.

Q2 [2]
Area total = $\pi \times 10^2 = 100\pi$.
Area inner = $\pi \times 6^2 = 36\pi$.
Shaded annulus = $100\pi - 36\pi = 64\pi$.
$P = \frac{64\pi}{100\pi} = \frac{16}{25}$.
Common mistake: using diameter not radius.
Answer: $\frac{16}{25}$.

Q3 [2]
Total = 40+60+100 = 200.
Angle Music = $\frac{60}{200} \times 360^\circ = 108^\circ$.
Answer: $108^\circ$.

Q4 [2]
Region outside both = complement of union = $(A \cup B)'$ or $A' \cap B'$.
Answer: $(A \cup B)'$.

Q5 [2]
Diff = 3 each time → linear $3n + c$.
n=1: 4 → $3(1)+c=4 \Rightarrow c=1$.
Expression = $3n+1$.
Answer: $3n+1$.

Q6 [2]
$OA = 13$, $OM = 5$, right angle at M.
$AM = \sqrt{13^2 - 5^2} = \sqrt{169-25} = \sqrt{144} = 12$.
$AB = 2 \times 12 = 24$ cm.
Answer: 24 cm.

Q7 [2]
$\tan 45^\circ = 1$.
Answer: 1.

Q8 [2]
Area sector = $\frac{60}{360} \times \pi \times 8^2 = \frac{1}{6} \times 64\pi = \frac{32\pi}{3}$ cm² (≈ 33.5 cm²).
Answer: $\frac{32\pi}{3}$ cm².

Q14 [3]
$OA \perp AB$, so $\triangle OAB$ right at A.
