Answer Key & Marking Scheme Version 2

Section A: Short Answer Questions

1. Area $= \frac{1}{2} ab \sin C$ $= \frac{1}{2} (12)(9) \sin 65^\circ$ $= 54 \times 0.9063...$ $= 48.94...$ Answer: $48.9$ cm $^2$ [2] (1 mark for formula/substitution, 1 mark for answer)

2. Angle at centre $= 2 \times$ angle at circumference. Reflex $\angle AOC = 360^\circ - 110^\circ = 250^\circ$ . $\angle ABC = \frac{1}{2} \times 250^\circ = 125^\circ$ . Alternatively, $\angle ABC = 180^\circ - \frac{1}{2}(110^\circ)$ is incorrect logic for this position. Correct logic: Angle at circumference subtended by major arc. Or use cyclic quad property if a point D was on the major arc. Standard theorem: Angle at centre is twice angle at circumference. The angle $\angle ABC$ subtends the major arc $AC$ . Reflex $\angle AOC = 250^\circ$ . $\angle ABC = 125^\circ$ . Answer: $125^\circ$ [2]

3. $\cos \theta = \frac{\text{Adj}}{\text{Hyp}} = \frac{1.8}{5}$ $\theta = \cos^{-1}(0.36)$ $\theta = 68.899...^\circ$ Answer: $68.9^\circ$ [2]

6. Distance $= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2}$ $= \sqrt{(8-2)^2 + (1-5)^2}$ $= \sqrt{6^2 + (-4)^2}$ $= \sqrt{36 + 16} = \sqrt{52}$ $= 7.211...$ Answer: $7.21$ units [2]

7. $\angle EGB$ and $\angle AGH$ are vertically opposite, so $\angle AGH = 115^\circ$ . $\angle AGH$ and $\angle GHD$ are alternate interior angles? No, $AB \parallel CD$ . $\angle EGB$ corresponds to $\angle GHD$ ? No. $\angle EGB$ and $\angle BGH$ are supplementary on straight line? No. $\angle EGB = 115^\circ$ . $\angle BGH = 180 - 115 = 65^\circ$ (angles on straight line $EF$ ). $\angle BGH$ and $\angle GHD$ are alternate interior angles. So $\angle GHD = 65^\circ$ . Alternatively: $\angle EGB$ and $\angle GHD$ are corresponding angles? No. $\angle EGB$ corresponds to $\angle EHD$ (if extended). Let's use corresponding angles: $\angle EGB$ corresponds to $\angle GHD$ ? No, $\angle EGB$ is top-right. $\angle GHD$ is bottom-right interior. $\angle EGB = \angle DHF$ (corresponding). $\angle DHF$ and $\angle GHD$ are vertically opposite? No. Simplest: $\angle EGB = 115^\circ$ . $\angle AGH = 115^\circ$ (vertically opposite). $\angle AGH + \angle GHC = 180$ (consecutive interior). $\angle GHC = 65^\circ$ . $\angle GHD$ and $\angle GHC$ are supplementary on line $CD$ ? No. Let's restart. $AB \parallel CD$ . Transversal $EF$ . $\angle EGB = 115^\circ$ . $\angle BGH = 180^\circ - 115^\circ = 65^\circ$ (angles on a straight line). $\angle BGH$ and $\angle GHD$ are alternate interior angles. Therefore $\angle GHD = 65^\circ$ . Answer: $65^\circ$ [2]

8. Curved Surface Area $= \pi r l$ $= \pi (5)(13)$ $= 65\pi$ $= 204.20...$ Answer: $204$ cm $^2$ [2]

Angle $ABC = 230^\circ - 140^\circ = 90^\circ$ . Triangle $ABC$ is right-angled at $B$ . $AC^2 = 20^2 + 15^2 = 400 + 225 = 625$ . $AC = \sqrt{625} = 25$ . Answer: $25$ km [3]

12. Tangents from external point are equal length. Triangle $OAT$ and $OBT$ are congruent right-angled triangles? Quadrilateral $OATB$ . Angles at $A$ and $B$ are $90^\circ$ (tangent-radius). Sum of angles in quad $= 360^\circ$ . $\angle ATB = 360 - 90 - 90 - 130 = 50^\circ$ . Answer: $50^\circ$ [2]

13. Volume $= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$ $= \frac{4}{3} \pi (6)^3$ $= \frac{4}{3} \pi (216)$ $= 288\pi$ $= 904.77...$ Answer: $905$ cm $^3$ [2]

14. Product of gradients of perpendicular lines $= -1$ . $m_1 \times m_2 = -1$ $-\frac{2}{3} \times m_2 = -1$ $m_2 = \frac{3}{2}$ Answer: $\frac{3}{2}$ or $1.5$ [2]

15. Check Pythagoras: $15^2 + 20^2 = 225 + 400 = 625$ . $25^2 = 625$ . Since $15^2 + 20^2 = 25^2$ , it is right-angled. The right angle is opposite the hypotenuse ( $LN$ ). So $\angle LMN = 90^\circ$ . Answer: Angle $LMN$ (or $M$ ) [2]

Area of one triangle $= \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{slant height}$ ? No, base is side of square (10). Height of triangle face is slant height from midpoint of side?
