The quadrilateral ABCD is a cyclic parallelogram. Prove that it is a rectangle. Easy enough question, but my brain is currently fried. I know it's something to do with the external angle of a cyclic quadrilateral, followed by supplementary angles of a cyclic quadrilateral and then co-interior...

Is it possible to do well in Maths Extension 2 without a tutor? As per thread title. I intend to do Mathematics Extension 2, but do not want to waste time tutoring. Is it possible to get into the top band without tutoring, but simply a lot of time, dedication and hard work? What do you think...

I've just started to complete my weekly MX1 assignments on the computer since we now get it digitally from the school; a mundane attempt to save paper in the Mathematics Department. Anyway, that's besides the point. I'd like to ask if anyone knows any Keyboard Shortcuts or faster ways of...

I'm gonna take up jogging (more professionally?) everyday and I need to find a pair of lightweight, durable and comfortable joggers. I usually jog on gravel, concrete and grass. A friend recommended a good pair of Asics and my mother has a nice pair of Brooks. Does anyone have any...
