Maths Exam (1 Viewer)

Who's pumped for it? I'm certainly not.

Does anybody have any information about what kinds of questions will be in the exam? I've been told this before, but I forgot what they were.

Also, can anybody pass some information about bisecting angles, doing cross multiply etc?

Would be a great help, thanks.

First section: Non-calculator section
Second: Multiple choice questions, >1 answer type questions and questions which require calculations.

Mostly the stuff you'll be tested would be things you've learnt over the last 3-4 years - consumer arithmetic, co-ordinate geometry, simple algebra, area and volume, etc.

Good luck.

Just do a bunch of practise questions online. From what I've seen, the maths is pretty much the same every year - they just change the numbers around abit.

Thanks guys, I'm gonna attempt to spend a few hours revising maths. It's my weakest subject, see.

Ok mate, this is gonna be hard to explain so go easy on me, for bisecting an angle;

place compass on the point of the angle (ie angle ABC, place it on B)
draw a line around the angle to make it like a sector (blue)
place the compass on the point where the circle crosses the original line
draw a line in the middle of the angle from each point (green from top line, light red from bottom)
use your ruler to draw a line through the x that was made (red)

Hope that helps mate!

No worries mate, I learnt that back in year 7 and when it came up in the trial I had completely forgotten it, I remembered with like 5 mins left.

Make sure you DON'T RUB OUT construction lines.

Good luck to all
