  1. 1
    Histograms3 marks

    A histogram has two bars: one 10 units wide with frequency density 0.4, one 25 units wide with density 3. How many values in total?

  2. 2
    Surds3 marks

    Expand and simplify (6 + sqrt(7))(6 - sqrt(7)).

  3. 3
    Trigonometric and Exponential Graphs2 marks

    The curve y = sin x° is drawn for 0 <= x <= 360. Write down the value of y when x = 180.

  4. 4
    Direct and Inverse Proportion Depth3 marks

    y is directly proportional to x^2. When x = 4, y = 32. Work out the positive value of x when y = 72.

  5. 5
    Perpendicular Lines and the equation of a tangent3 marks

    The point (5, 12) lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 169. Work out the gradient of the tangent to the circle at that point.
