What examiners said
Many responses identified that the shortest distance is the length of the perpendicular from P to SQ and this line was often indicated on the diagram. However not all clearly marked the right angle at the base or showed working to indicate this was the case. Using trigonometry was a more popular method than Pythagoras’. As in previous parts, premature approximation often led to inaccuracies in the...
— Examiner report, February/March 2022, 0580/42 Q4(b)(ii) (Cambridge)
There were quite a number of correct responses to the order of rotational symmetry, although 4 was a common answer and occasionally 3 was seen.
— Examiner report, October/November 2021, 0580/12 Q6(a) (Cambridge)
The vertical line was usually seen, either alone or with at least an attempt at the sloping lines. Reasonable accuracy was expected but some lines did not go through the vertices or missed the mid-points of the opposite sides. Nearly all candidates drew ruled lines.
