Help concerning Math paper 4 (geometrical intruments)

[Ritter]

I'm having math paper 4 exam on monday (code: 0580)

I want to know if it's allowed to use a flexible french curve (like that shown below) To draw curves for quadratic equations in the exam or not.

It all depends on the mood of the invigilator.
If he's very strict then you won't be allowed to use it. You won't really need it in the paper anyways, they won't give you standard quadratic equations which fit this rules or maybe they will, well but the point is why risk just use your hand like the rest of the world.

Well I'm not sure if it really depends on the examiners because they're sitting in uk probably, they won't even know what you used. But whatever, I'm not here to argue just gave my opinion.
