It was definitely somewhere in between 2021 and 2022 but 100% not 2021 easy

Ok that would be good

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
i hope you all did an abysmal job so my 30% raw can scale to 90

How can you do product of roots when u don’t know if the rest of 2 roots are real or not???? How will u find the the i component if it ain’t real

wdym? you have two roots, you need two more. You have (abcd being roots): a+b+c+d = 1 add abcd = -30, you have a and b given so you have 2 equations and 2 variables

What?
i) was just conjugate root theorem
ii) was sum and product with the two unknown roots as alpha and beta then solve
Iirc it was -3,2 as solutions

Does anyone have a copy? I don’t want solutions just the qs so I can give it a go

 

[synthesisFR]

@carrotsss pls day it was hard

 

[eeeeeeeeeeeqwe]

Would this paper align the same as 2022?

nahhhh that was wild. what the actual was that SHM with the two particles wtf. spent like an hour on it.

Oh
I found that question beautiful
Ngl probably got it wrong but it was fun hahah

what was that projectile motion one part 4 with the weird ass graph, how the hell does 4x/9 correlate

no fucking way it was, my working for that involved none of that...

i just did the conjugate factor thing

with the 2 - i roots i did

z^2 - 2Re(z) +|z|^2

which gave

(z^2 - 4z + 5)
i then did a factor by inspection and got
(z^2 - 4z + 5)(z^2 - z- 6)

somehow i completely ignored all those variable coefficients in the polynomial and pulled it off

but it didn’t say whether it was at its maximum at 4 or if it was still moving away. I was hella confused

that exam was alright, definitely harder than 2021 and close to 2022 though

im annoyed at myself because I made a silly mistake on that sphere question and possibly the locus question at the end as well but I feel decently alright about every other question (finished with just over 20 minutes left so didn’t have time to check tons but there was still enough time) so we’ll see

 

[Hudz777]

also, the triangle was wack asf, had no idea

what the hell man you’re insane!

it started at rest which means it was a maximum. threw me at first too though

Y bruh
Mf I didn’t have time left

yeah you could just do sum/product and then inspect
