I don't know if my school's a Catholic one
did you guys get this really weird maths induction question at the end?
the first part is something like f(x)>0 and f(a+b)=f(a)*f(b)

yea i usually can get most of them done fine - like have no probs - but in this one i only had like 3 questions where i was fine for. all the other ones i had to spend time on - which doesnt help the overall result

Catholic is so damn hard!!!!!!!!!! :(

I can't even do Q3 a)!!!
AND IT'S ONLY Q3!!!

Can anyone do that?
It's something like given 2 triangles are similar, prove that c^2=b^2-2ab

mm.. something like that.. can't exactly remember what it was

I now only hope for a pass

hehe, i was crusing thru the test until the Q7 (a) (i)
:confused:
:eek:

And then (iii)
:confused:


I was hoping for 90s.., but now i'll be happy IF i get over 80

prove that c^2=b^2-2ab

all u do is put the sides in ratio. You've been given the info that the triangles r similar. So all u do is put the sides into ratio, u get 2 small equations and then thats it.

The but after that, uno that its an isos triangle, so u lets thingo = sumfin. And thats part2.

catholic 4u next...DAT'S gonna b hard!

um..
"and the last smh question"

There was a shm ques?
i cant remember.....
r u refering to the projectile motion>

Viceroy
Theres no such thing as 3 limits. Coz if u think about it, u have a max value and a min value...
But i fink ur talking about the simpson's rule ques?
answer was Pi/4 ?
that's 3 sub ordinates.
That was juz an aplication of simpson's rule. The good thing about that is ur answer for that was equal to ur answer of previous part. So if u screwed that up, u'll know from ur previous answer.

WORST-EXAM-EVER!

*puts on best Comic Book Store Guy voice* Ahem, WORST-EXAM-EVER!!
That exam raped me so hard it isn't funny.. I usually do pretty alright in 4 unit. I got 83% and 85% in my last 2 assessments and im coming 13th (until now) in my school, out of two 3 unit classes and one 4 unit class, but that doesn't mean shite anymore.. That exam was just f*cking ridiculous!
I'd say im confident of about 50% of it, i probably didnt answer 20% of it, and the other 30% was freakin sketchy...
I can't wait for 2 unit now, its gonna be such a breeze compared to that mutha of a test!!
