I have the answers to the dynamics questions if anyone wants...I remember them being tricky. My brother goes to USyd and it seems that their Maths department uses exactly the same formatting as our maths tests...coincedence?

Shaf, some of them are identical to the cambridge :p The 3u ones anyway.
Many cambridge questions were originally grammar exam and test questions.

And to those asking about solutions: I'm getting to them. They take longer to scan up than the questions, and I'm a little busy at the moment. Hopefully I'll have them up by tonight.

considering the fact that Dr. Pender wrote the Cambridge series of books and that he is the head teacher of Mathematics at SGS, it shouldn't come as a surprise?

however, what might be surprising is that many of the Cambridge questions (the year 12 3u one) come exactly from the 3u green Fitzpatrick book - and that book was written by a Victorian author.

It's often not possible to ask different questions because the range of questions is quite limited in high school maths. You'll find it hard to find many original trial papers. cambridge also has a far greater range of questions.

Yes but i thought he would vary them since im sure he would use his own textbook to teach out of.

The answers are a bit long, so if anyone wants any answers for proofs, ask, and I’ll scan up Pender’s solutions for that question.

Complex

1. a)22 + 13i
b) -1/13(5 + 14i)
c) Sqrt(17/13)

2. proof

3. a) circle, radius 2, centre (2,0). Shaded in.
b) x – 2y – 3 = 0
c) arc of a circle, endpoints (2,0) and (0, -i), radius 1/3 sqrt15

4.a) 3 + 4i
b) 83’ 8’

5. c) 30

6. proof
