What was the answer to 10?

Also how did everyone prove that the line was a tangent to the circle?

Overall I thought it was quite an easy exam. Questions I struggled with was finding 'D' in the projectile motion question (although I think I will get 2/3), the circle locus of Q(which I also think I will get 2/3 as I nearlly solved it using QS=OS), the 2nd part of the circle geometry question and of course the last question (what the hell was that?). I think I'll get about 90%.

Freaking last question. I damn the last question. So easy to do yet so difficult to understand :(

It looked like one of the easier papers. Q12e) was quite a good one because you have to understand the mechanism of Newton's method rather than blindly apply the formula.

Quite a nice test. For 13ciii), I let (0, 2a) be S' and found gradient QS', which was -1/t
QS' x OQ = -1 therefore OS' diameter (subtending 90 degrees at circumference) on circle x^2 + (y-a)^2 = a^2
Does that sound legit?

all the effort gone the damn toilet. BOSTES, can't wait to never even hear that again. Seriously, i thought was the 4 unit test was way better, even not counting scaling, just percentage wise. bye bye e4, hope e3 will accept me, probs not.
