In the question asking for proof about the triangles being congruent I mentioned two points but left out the one about the tangents in panic over the difficulty of the rest of the paper. I wrote instead that if two sides are equal the third one is bound to be equal too. Will that be accepted, Sir?

You should get all the marks for 1743.8 but you'll definitely lose a mark for 87.3.

I think you'll get at least 1 mark for using the arc length method.

For the question 11bi, I wrote the answer ( The square root of 441 / 20 ) Which is 1.05 close to 1.054. Do you think they will accept it.
