No Additional Materials are required. READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST Write your index number and name on all the work you hand in. Write in dark blue or black pen on both sides of the paper. You may use a pencil for any diagrams or graphs. Do not use staples, paper clips, glue, or correction fluid. Answer all the questions. Omission of essential working will result in loss of marks. The use of an approved scientific calculator is expected, where appropriate. If the degree of accuracy is not specified in the question, and if the answer is not exact, give the answer to three significant figures. Give answers in degrees to one decimal place. For π, use either your calculator value or 3.142, unless the question requires the answer in terms of π. At the end of the presentation, fasten all your work securely together. The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question. The total number of marks for this paper is 90. Setter: Ms Lee Sock Kee Vetter: Mr Francis Tan and Mr Lionel Ang This question paper consists of 22 printed pages (including this cover page). [Turn over 90
