Hahaha! Exatly. To avoid them in Addmaths and A'levels Maths and Further maths, I learnt the use of calculator that allowed me to achieve perfection and eradicate any such wrongdoing. :p

Q9 a (ii ), b(i) b and b(ii)

Q9) (a) (ii) cross-sectional area x depth = volume
=> 1/4 * pi * 8 * 8 * d = 800.
=> d = 800/ 16 pi = 15.91549431
Therefore, the depth is 15.9 cm (correct to 3 sig. fig.)

(b)(i)(b) Shaded Area = area of quadrant - area of triangle MON
= (1/4 pi * 8 * 8) - (1/2 * 2x * x)
= 16 pi - x^2. (SHOWN)
(b)(ii) (16 pi - x^2) * 20 = 800
16 pi - 40 = x^2
So x = 3.20 cm (I missed a few steps in this part but I think you can get that).
So I hope this makes it clear. If not, ask away! :)

Nibz, I didn't know you were solving this when I started out! Hmph! This is a little annoying.
@Hamid Ali: Yeah, yeah, you are perfect!

HAHAHA! No, I am not. Nobody is perfect and I ain't nobody. :p Why does yor post looks like a taunt? ;)
Practice makes you better. Silly mistakes can never be eliminated completely, they are part of Mathematics.
@abcde: Nibz stole your wind, didn't he? :p

xhizors:

For a (ii) => You've got this simple formula for volume => base area x height
Depth of the water actually means the height!
Base area of that prism is a sector here. Area of sector (here) = 1/4 x pi x r^2
Area of sector = 50.27
Now put this in the equation => 800 = 50.27 x height
800 / 50.27 = height => 15.9 cm (correct to 3 sig. fig)

for b(i) b => the shaded area in diag. III = Area of the whole sector - area of that small triangle
Area = (1/4 x pi x 8^2 ) - ( 1/2 . 2x . x )
(16pi) - (x^2) => 16pi - x^2 => SHOWN!

for b ( ii) => Volume = base area (of the shaded region) x height
Volume = 800 cm^3
Base area = 16pi - x^2
Height (length) = 20
Put these values in the formula and you'l get your answer (which = 3.20 cm)
Hope this helped!

arrey yaar that was too easy how i can be that reluctant i think i m exhausted any wayz thanks buddy ..

You didn't need to do that. Maybe, xhizor understood better reading your post than abcde's. It totally depends on the learner. :)
If you deleted it because of my post, I was just kidding. :)

Lol. That was just sarcasm. I mean the somewhat pompous way you say "to achieve perfection and eradicate any such wrongdoing" Hahahaha..
Never mind, you've got a point! :) We're not allowed calculators in Maths paper 1, though.
And Nibz, you didn't have to do that! :oops:

@abcde: That's what I meant: a sarcastic comment, somewhat like a taunt. ;) Yeah! Just check it thoroughly. Check the marks allocated to each question and see if you missed anything accordingly.

No, certainly not! ( not because of your post)

Take x as the number of workers that used only bus as a mean of transport. Hence, the number of workers who used only bicycle are equal to 2x.
x+2x+13+6+3+17+15=78
3x+54=78
3x=24
x=8

Q12:
Interior angle of the polygon =140;
Exterior angle = 180-140 = 40
Number of sides = 360/40 = 9

Since they are congruent polygons, ABD = 40 +40
=80

Re: O'level Maths, Addmaths and Statistics help available he

Q16 :
It is a hexagonal prism . Therefore 6 planes of symmetry for the hexagon. However since it is a prism, there is another plane of symmetry (the 3d object- prism can be cut halfway through its length) So in conclusion, it has 7 planes of symmetry.
Upper bound of length = 50.5 cm
Least possible perimeter = 2(lower bound of length+lower bound of width) = 2(49.5+14.5) = 128 cm
Hope you understood this :)
