A carpenter was told to make a rectangular desk with top of dimension 50cm by 40cm. The carpenter actually made the desk 60cm by 35cm.
(a) Calculate the percentage error in the (i) length and the breadth ; (ii) area of the table top.
(b) Find the product of the two errors in a(i).
Intended dimensions: 50 cm by 40 cm. Actual dimensions made: 60 cm by 35 cm.
Percentage error \(= \dfrac{|\text{actual} - \text{intended}|}{\text{intended}} \times 100\%\).
(a)(i) Length:
\[ \frac{|60 - 50|}{50} \times 100\% = \frac{10}{50} \times 100\% = 20\%. \]Breadth:
\[ \frac{|35 - 40|}{40} \times 100\% = \frac{5}{40} \times 100\% = 12.5\%. \](a)(ii) Area: intended area \(= 50 \times 40 = 2000\ \text{cm}^2\); actual area \(= 60 \times 35 = 2100\ \text{cm}^2\).
\[ \frac{|2100 - 2000|}{2000} \times 100\% = \frac{100}{2000} \times 100\% = 5\%. \](b) Product of the two errors in a(i):
\[ 20\% \times 12.5\% = 0.20 \times 0.125 = 0.025 = 2.5\%. \]Detalles de la respuesta

(a) Prove that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 2 right angles.
(b) The side AB of a triangle ABC is produced to a point D. The bisector of ACB cuts AB at E. Prove that < CAE + < CBD = 2 < CEB.
(a) The angles of a triangle sum to two right angles.
Let triangle ABC have interior angles at A, B and C. Through C draw a line XY parallel to AB, with X and Y on opposite sides of C.
The angles on the straight line XY at C add to two right angles:
\[ \angle XCA + \angle ACB + \angle YCB = 180^\circ. \]Replacing the two alternate angles gives
\[ \angle CAB + \angle ACB + \angle CBA = 180^\circ, \]so the three interior angles of the triangle sum to two right angles. \(\blacksquare\)
(b) Let \(\angle ACE = \angle ECB = c\) (CE bisects \(\angle ACB\)), and write \(\angle CAB = A\) and \(\angle CBA = B\).
\(\angle CAE = A\). The exterior angle at B, \(\angle CBD\), equals the sum of the two remote interior angles:
\[ \angle CBD = A + \angle ACB = A + 2c. \]Therefore
\[ \angle CAE + \angle CBD = A + (A + 2c) = 2A + 2c. \tag{1} \]Now \(\angle CEB\) is the exterior angle of triangle ACE at E, so it equals the sum of the two remote interior angles \(\angle CAE\) and \(\angle ACE\):
\[ \angle CEB = A + c \implies 2\,\angle CEB = 2A + 2c. \tag{2} \]From (1) and (2),
\[ \angle CAE + \angle CBD = 2\,\angle CEB. \ \blacksquare \]Detalles de la respuesta

(b) Eight wooden poles are to be used for pillars and the lengths of the poles form an Arithmetic Progression (A.P). If the second pole is 2m and the sixth is 5m, give the lengths of the poles, in order.
(a) Multiply out the numerator and divide:
\[ \frac{0.016 \times 0.084}{0.48} = \frac{0.001344}{0.48} = 0.0028. \]In standard form:

In a class of 40 students, 25 speak Hausa, 16 speak Igbo, 21 speak Yoruba and each of the students speak at least one of the these three languages. If 8 speak Hausa and Igbo, 11 speak Hausa and Yoruba and 6 speak Igbo and Yoruba.
(a) Draw a Venn diagram to illustrate the information, using x to represent the number of students that speak all three languages.
(b) calculate the value of x.
(a) Let \(H\), \(I\) and \(Y\) represent the sets of students who speak Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba respectively. Since the given pairwise intersections include those who speak all three languages, the Venn diagram is:
(b) Since every student speaks at least one of the languages,
\[n(H\cup I\cup Y)=40.\]
Using the inclusion-exclusion principle,
\[40=25+16+21-8-11-6+x\]
\[40=37+x\]
\[x=3.\]
Therefore, 3 students speak all three languages.
Hence the numerical entries in the Venn diagram are:
\[H\cap I\cap Y=3,\quad H\cap I\text{ only}=5,\quad H\cap Y\text{ only}=8,\quad I\cap Y\text{ only}=3,\]
\[H\text{ only}=9,\quad I\text{ only}=5,\quad Y\text{ only}=7.\]

(a) Copy and complete the table.
(b) Using a scale of 2cm to 1 unit on the x- axis and 2cm to 10 units on the y- axis, draw the graph of the relation \(y = 2x^{2} - 5x + 1\) for \(-3 \leq x \leq 5\).
(c) Using the same scale and axes, draw the graph of \(y = x + 6\).
(d) Estimate from your graphs, correct to one decimal place : (i) the least value of y and the value of x for which it occurs ; (ii) the solution of the equation \(2x^{2} - 5x + 1 = x + 6\).
(a) Completing the table for \(y = 2x^{2} - 5x + 1\)
Substitute each x-value, for example \(x=-3:\; 2(9)-5(-3)+1 = 18+15+1 = 34\).
| x | -3 | -2 | -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| y | 34 | 19 | 8 | 1 | -2 | -1 | 4 | 13 | 26 |
(b) The graph
Plot the nine points with 2 cm to 1 unit on the x-axis and 2 cm to 10 units on the y-axis, and join them with a smooth U-shaped parabola.
(c) The line \(y = x + 6\)
Use two points: at \(x=-3,\;y=3\) and at \(x=5,\;y=11\). Draw the straight line through \((-3,3)\) and \((5,11)\).
(d)(i) Least value of y
The lowest point of the parabola occurs at the vertex, \(x = \dfrac{5}{2\times 2} = 1.25\). Then
\(y = 2(1.25)^{2} - 5(1.25) + 1 = 3.125 - 6.25 + 1 = -2.125\).
From the graph, the least value of y is \(\approx -2.1\), occurring at \(x \approx 1.3\).
(d)(ii) Solution of \(2x^{2} - 5x + 1 = x + 6\)
The solutions are the x-coordinates where the curve meets the line. Algebraically:
\(2x^{2} - 5x + 1 = x + 6 \Rightarrow 2x^{2} - 6x - 5 = 0\).
\(x = \dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{36+40}}{4} = \dfrac{6 \pm \sqrt{76}}{4}\), giving \(x \approx 3.7\) and \(x \approx -0.7\).

The required solution set is the common region below \(y=2x+4\) and above both \(y=2-\frac{x}{3}\) and \(y=7x-9\). It is the shaded triangular region shown.
Hence, the solution region is the closed triangle with vertices

(a) ABCD is a trapezium in which AB // DC, |AB| = 8cm, < ABC = 60°, |BC| = 5.5cm and |BD| = 8.3cm. Using a ruler and a pair of compasses only, construct:
(i) the trapezium ABCD ; (ii) a rectangle PQCD, where P, Q are two points AB;
(b) Measure |AB| and |QB|.
There is an inconsistency in the supplied materials: the question asks for \(|AB|\), which is already given as \(8\text{ cm}\), whereas the reference answer gives \(|AC|=7\text{ cm}\). The reference answer therefore appears to intend \(|AC|\), not \(|AB|\).
Construction
Measurements
The value of \(QB\) follows from the horizontal component of \(BC\): \(QB=5.5\cos60^\circ=2.75\text{ cm}\), so a ruler measurement should be close to \(2.8\text{ cm}\) or \(2.9\text{ cm}\).
If the intended measurement was \(|AC|\), as indicated by the reference answer, then \(|AC|\approx7.1\text{ cm}\), recorded as \(7\text{ cm}\).
