If you haven't done Add Maths - how difficult is A Level Maths? Should I do Add.Maths before I start studying A Level Maths?
Lol I just did IGCSE 0580 math CORE! Yet I am master in Math now, no matter I got E in one month preparation. But I know all things by now. The thing matter here in Math is PRACTICE which I could not do in one month time. :( Anyways. All the best. :)

Can anyone solve QN 10(ii)(9709 s03 2005)
10ii)
You know that one of the points on line l is 4i -2j +2k
Let this point be X.
Find the direction vector of AX
AX =(4 -2 2) -(2 2 1) =(2 -4 1)
As both A and X lie on the plane the normal of the plane is also normal to this direction vector.
You already know the direction vector of line l.
find the cross product of these two direction vectors to find the normal of the plane.
(2 -4 1) x (1 2 1)
=-6i -j +8k
Now,
r.n = a.n
(x y z). (-6 -1 8) = (-6 -1 8) (2 2 1)
-6x -y +8z =-6
or
6x + y -8z =6.

can you explain? :(
Hello again. Don't be sad. :)
ZaqZainab help her in statistics. (Yet haven't start S1)
Well here is that vector answer :¬
8)
i)
Angle ABC is not an angle between three vectors.
It is angle between two vectors: BA and BC

BA = OA - OB = (2i + 3j + 5k) - (4i + 2j + 3k) = -2i + j + 2k
BC = OC - OB = (10i + 6k) - (4i +2j + 3k) = 6i + 2j + 3k

To find angle between vectors, we use dot product:
BA • BC = ||BA|| ||BC|| cosθ
(-2i + j + 2k) • (6i +2j + 3k) = √(4+1+4) √(36+4+9) cosθ
-12+2+6 = 3 x 7 x cosθ
-4/27 = cosθ
θ = 98.5°

ii)
I am not sure of this. Tell me its answer. :p
