    I'm almost sure the swing was 7.4.
    Tan X = 5/4
    X = Tan -1 (5/4)
    X = 51.34

    51.34 * 1.2 = 61.6

    Tan 61.6 = x/4
    4 Tan 61.6 = x
    x = 7.39
    x = 7.4

    Idk if that's right or wrong but how I did it.

    Why do you have to multiply by 1.2 ?

    Got the slope to be 1/3
    1, -2 wasn't on the line.
    y - y1 = m ( x - x1)
    As they're parallel m is the same

    y - (-2) = 1/3 (x - 1) (3)
    3y + 6 = x - 1
    x - 3y - 7 = 0

    Was it the swing question

    The coordinate geometry question.

    One of the questions on co-geometry asked if the line was perpendicular to another, I said no. It was towards the end, did anyone get that?

    Where did the 4 come from? Was that you're distance from A-B ?

    Same here, because the slope are not equal to -1 ! :)

    If you didn't scribble it out, you might get low/high partial. :)
    This is why people are adamant to avoid using tippex.

    The lines had the same slope so they were perpendicular i think

    For question 1 what was the probability I thinkvi got 9/64 but I think its wrong

    Which question are you talking about?
    I'm referencing when the slopes were 5/4 and - 5/4.

    No, it wasn't if it was , their slopes would be equal to -1

    3/8, which is the same as 9/64. :)
    So, yeah. ^^

    And they were. 5 over 4 and -5 over 4 multiplied equal -1

    And they were. 5 over 4 and -5 over 4 multiplied equal -1

    1.25 * - 1.25 =/= -1.
