Text from the first pagesVICTORIA JUNIOR COLLEGE JC 1 PROMOTIONAL EXAMINATION 2023 H2 Further Mathematics 9649/01 Paper 1 3 hours Additional Materials: Answer Paper Graph Paper List of Formulae (MF26) READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST Write your name and CT group on the work you hand in. Write in dark blue or black pen on both sides of the paper. You may use an HB pencil for any diagrams or graphs. Do not use staples, paper clips, glue or correction fluid. Answer all the questions. Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figur es, or 1 decimal place in the case of angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question. You are expected to use an approved graphing calculator. Unsupported answers from a graphing calculator are allowed unless a question specifically states otherwise. Where unsupported answers from a graphing calculator are not allowed in a question, you are required to present the mathematical steps us ing mathematical notations and not calculator commands. You are reminded of the need for clear presentation in your answers. At the end of the examination, fasten all your work securely together. The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question. This document consists of 6 printed pages. [Turn over
