Solution Given 0 0 1 OB k → = = Method 1: Using angles 1 2 :. 2 3 1 pr −= − ( )0, 0, 3Q − is a point that lies in 1p . Since 1 30OQ⋅ = −<n , then the angle between OQ and 1n is obtuse. 1 02 0. 2 40 41 BQ ⋅ = − = −< − n , then the angle between BQ and 1n is obtuse. ∴ O and B are on same side of 1p . ( )1−−− 2 1 :. 2 1 3 pr −= ( )1 ,0 ,0T is a point that lies in 2p . Since 2 10OT⋅= >n , then the angle between OT and 2n is acute. 2 11 0 2 20 13 BT ⋅ = ⋅− = −< − n , then the angle between BT and 2n is obtuse. ∴ O and B are on opposite side of 2p . ( )2−−− Combining (1) and (2) with reference to given diagram, B∴ lies in 2R . Method 2: (using shortest distance of planes to origin O) Let 3p be plane containing B and parallel to 1p . Equation of 3p is 2 02 .2 0 .2 1 1 11 r −= −= ∴ equation of 3p in standard form is 3 2 22 2 22 21 11:. 2 032 ( 2) 1 2 ( 2) 11 pr −= =>+− + +− + O B Q O B T

Solution Group the two first prize awardees as one object, and the two second prize awardees as another object. 1st Prize 2nd Prize GOH S S S S There are 7 units to be arranged in a row. Within the unit of 1 st Prize and the unit of 2 nd Prize, the respective prize winners may arrange themselves. Number of ways required = 7!2!2! 20160= Solution For this arrangement, it means the guest of honour’s seat opposite is an empty seat. Thus the 8 students sit at the 8 remaining chairs. Number of seating arrangement = 8! = 40320 7. Solution Let X be the number of students who study H2 Biology out of 40 students.
