2
Surds3 marks
Rationalise the denominator of 66/sqrt(6), giving your answer in its simplest form.
3
Factorising Harder Quadratics3 marks

5
Perpendicular Lines and the equation of a tangent3 marks
The point (7, 24) lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 625. Work out the gradient of the tangent to the circle at that point.
