[Turn over SECONDARY 4 PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION ADDITIONAL MATHEMATICS Paper 1 4049/01 29 August 2025 (Friday) 2 hours 15 minutes CANDIDATE NAME MARKING SCHEME CLASS 4 - INDEX NUMBER Candidates answer on the Question Paper. READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST Write your full name, class and index number in the spaces above. Write in dark blue or black pen in the space provided for each question. You may use a HB pencil for any diagrams or graphs. Do not use staples, paper clips, highlighters, glue or correction fluid. Answer all the questions. The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question. If working is needed for any question, it must be shown in the space below the question. Omission of essential working will result in loss of marks. The total of the marks for this paper is 90. 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 p, use either your calculator value or 3.142. This document consists of 18 printed pages including the cover page.

Without using a calculator, find the perpendicular height, h, in the form (π+πβ6) cm, where a and b are integers. [3] ππππππππππ’πππ βπππβπ‘ β =2β6+3β6β1 =2β6+3β6β1Γβ6+1β6+1 =12+3+5β65 =(3+β6) cm
4 2 The function f is given by f(π₯)=sin22π₯tan2π₯. (i) Find fβ²(π₯). [2] fβ²(π₯)=(2sin2π₯)(2cos2π₯)tan2π₯+sin22π₯(2sec22π₯) =4(sin2π₯cos2π₯)tan2π₯+2sin22π₯(sec22π₯) =4sin22π₯+2tan22π₯ (ii) Explain why f is an increasing function for 0<π₯<π4. [2] Given 0<π₯<π4 sin22π₯>0 and tan22π₯>0, hence 4sin22π₯+2tan22π₯>0β fβ²(π₯)>0. Since fβ²(π₯)>0, f is an increasing function.
