If ur getting 90% for ur 4u tests, either they're shit easy or ur a genius.

yea

usually in my school someone gets 98/99 for 4unit hsc mark, international students.
The one last yr that got 98 was first in China in his city (imagine how many people he was against) if only his english was better..

I havent got my mark back yet. But i probably went really shit. I hadnt studied much. But compared to others i prob went OK. It was a really really hard test, as we learnt a ton of stuff in it about a weeks b4 the exam.

We got ours back, went shite but meh, got 46/80 and the other guy got 56/80, but since I came first in the first assessment, overall our marks are 58/100 (him) and 56/100 (me). And we have only done 25% of the course. meh.....

[I just realised this is the extension 1 forum, those marks are for extension 2...]

it wasn't too hard, but because of that i know exactly where i made my stupid mistakes.
there was one answer which had a root 4 in it, and for some strange reason it never occured to me that root 4 was equal to 2. so i left it as that, when the question asked for the answer in the simplest form.
we're not getting it back until next term, i'm just hoping it'll be over 90% '-_-

lol ur funny man slide... but wouldnt expanding it out and equating the reals would have taken longer than the conventional method ;) ?
If you know your expansions off the top of your head then doing the complex trick is pretty fast.

(cis&theta; )<sup>3</sup> = cos<sup>3</sup>&theta; + i3cos<sup>2</sup>&theta;sin&theta; - 3cos&theta;sin<sup>2</sup>&theta; -isin<sup>3</sup>&theta;

Equate your real and you have a pretty quick way to work it out.

Nah, my teacher just never fails to put in circle geometry worth 10% to 20%. :chainsaw:

I don't have a problem with the circle geometry; I understand it more and more as time goes on. But putting it in EVERY test and as such a large chunk of the marks each time irks me.

20% of test = geometry... hmmm
lol no wonder you hate it.
I'd be scared of a 16.4 mark circle geometry question too :p

Uh, don't you mean 16.8? But no, it was worth 10 or so marks this time, separated into two sections.

That's not to say I didn't just acheive a piss-poor mark on a sub-standard test - I did.

studing 4 4u, i did a harder 3u circle geo question, i actually got it right, so i jumped ova the moon. lol :D. yer i hate it, so does my teacher because in or 4u test the only harder 3u stuff he had was induction n polynomials which was kewl. n fuk the iduction question was easy.
if f(x+y)= f(x) + f(y) and g(xy) = g(x).g(y)
prove that f(nx) = nf(x) and g(x^n) = [g(x)]^n
come on a yr 7 student could do that. the induction question in my 3u paper was harder, and the same teacher wrote both tests. lol

f(x+y)= f(x) + f(y) and g(xy) = g(x).g(y)

Interesting functions. Examples would be:
For f(x+y)= f(x) + f(y),

h(x)=x

For g(xy) = g(x).g(y)

j(x)=x^2

What are these two properties called, however?
