- 1.Write down the exact value of cos 45°.
- 2.A birthday cake is a cylinder of radius 10 cm and height 8 cm, with a thin ribbon fixed exactly once around the curved side, at half the height, and joined with no overlap. Work out the length of ribbon needed. Use π = 3.14.
- 3.A scale model of a bridge is built so that 2 cm on the model represents 5 m of the real bridge. The real bridge is 45 m long. Work out the length of the model bridge, in centimetres.
- 4.Write down the name given to a triangle whose three sides are all the same length.
- 5.A hiker walks due west. What is the three-figure bearing for this direction?
- 6.A path goes from A(1, 1) to B(1, 5), then from B to C(6, 5). Work out the total length of the path from A to C.
- 7.A quadrilateral has angles of 100°, 85° and 95° at three of its vertices. Work out the fourth angle.
- 8.Rectangle ABCD has vertices A(−1, 2), B(4, 2), C(4, 5) and D(−1, 5). The rectangle is translated so that C moves to (0, −1). Write down the coordinates of the image of A.
- 9.A solid has one curved surface and two flat circular faces of equal size, one at each end. What is the name of this solid?
- 10.Write down which one of these statements about quadrilaterals is true.
- 11.Write down how many right angles a right-angled triangle has.
- 12.A square tile has sides of length 6 cm. Work out the area of the tile.
- 13.Triangle PQR has angle P = 90°. The side PQ = 9 cm and the hypotenuse QR = 15 cm. Work out the length of PR.
- 14.Triangle ABC has AB = 5 cm, BC = 7 cm and CA = 9 cm. Triangle DEF has DE = 5 cm, EF = 7 cm and FD = 9 cm. Which condition proves the two triangles are congruent?
- 15.A tile is described as having two pairs of parallel sides, four equal sides, and diagonals that cross at right angles but are not equal in length. Give a reason why this tile cannot be a square.
