    Can't work out who to direct this reply to! But we got a really simple geometry proof by contradiction as follows:

    To prove: No triangle can have more than one right angle.

    Given triangle ABC. Angle A and angle B are both right angles.
    Angles in a triangle add to 180. A + B + C = 90 + 90 + C = 180
    --> C = 0 --> Not a triangle
    This contradicts the given fact that ABC is a triangle, therefore there can only be at most 1 right angle in a triangle.


    Is this the one you guys are looking for?
    Thanks! Yeah I think that's it :D

    Yep, but I've missed the last two. Are they worth listening back to?

    I think so. They're all in podcasts on iTunes anyway, I listen to them on the bus to the library!

    We talked about this mister :P You will not be repeating :) you'll be off to college next year :) You need to have more confidence in yourself patch :)
    If anyone will be repeating, it will be the girl who decided to have a part time job the last 2 years :P

    I think everyone on this board should repeat so we can repeat the Craic next year. :cool:

    Omg I saw the video S club 3 they're so awful apart from Bradley.
    They're ruining the songs now they don't all sing in tune. I used to love S Club :). It feels weird watching 3 sing the song and not 6/7.
    Did you see the video of them singing live?

    Yeah the one on an Australian morning show? It had pointless backing dancers to make it look like there were 7 on stage :L Jesus Paul looks awful. He's totally milking it though, I say he ran out of money. He left the band, he has no right to come back and act like nothing happened!!!
    Does anyone remember the S Club 7 film "Seeing Double"? Oh god guys, I can't even remember what it was about, I just remember it being the best.

    Haha that was great! The whole Rachel-Gareth Gates love story :L

    Yeah that one. He looks awful I nearly didn't recognise him. And Bradley in his pigtails he looks so funny. The don't sing the songs in the same way. Bradley still has the voice the others not as much.

    Today is going to be a lovely day! It's my raining and I'm going to head down to my school for ten, find an empty classroom, and study biology for endless hours. And, this morning I'm having strawberries with my bran flakes.

    Life is super. :D

    I really hope Heaney comes up, not because I'm "banking" on him but because I think his poetry is great! :D

    Is it actually possible to learn the whole biology course at this stage, or I mean get at least a C3? Any tips on what chapters and experiments I should know to get me a decent grade

    Learn unit 1 and unit 2-every year it accounts for between 70-80% of the paper believe it or not. Unit 3 is massive, but focus on things like human reproduction which comes up nearly every year.
    For experiments, I'm not sure but the enzyme ones are pretty easy and may come up. Also the IAA plant one may come up.

    I'd say work on exam papers at this stage. Correct them using the marking schemes because sometimes it's hard to know what they're look for.

    You've failed right there and then. Complacency killed the confident student.

    On a less grimacing note, happy birthday Mysteriouschic. Hope your dreams of 625 come true, as I'm sure you have no other dreams in life.



    When I was four and my parents queried me as to who I wanted to become, I sternly replied: "A 625 points, straight A1 student." This was before the project Maths fiasco had even erupted.
