    HSC Standard/Advanced Paper 1 Exam Thoughts

    I felt like for many of the section 2 questions, they were designed for you to argue against the question or at least to a non-significant extent. Personally I did Dobson, and i argued that it was true to a medium extent (did for the question for Young girl, cock crow and then went against for...

    BoS Maths Trials 2019

    so just marking q11 of the 4u papers I seem to notice a couple of common trends: -for the first integral many methods and manipulations were used with most of them being fruitless (and someone even told us to research an identity smh) -for the volumes question, many people got the correct bounds...

    MX2 Integration Marathon

    Re: HSC 2018 MX2 Integration Marathon Yup. FYI the mistranscribed integral is equivalent to 1/root(2) integral of root(tanx) which has been calculated to exhaustion.

    kpad Maths questions

    These questions are very easy compared to standard HSC-type examination questions. Most of these are doable by inspection and are thus left as exercises to the reader

    HSC 2017-2019 MX2 Marathon ADVANCED

    Re: HSC 2017 MX2 Marathon ADVANCED It's just \frac { { a }^{ 3 } }{ 6 } . Consider a cube with side length a. If you cut along its diagonals u get 6 identical pyramids with height half the base.
