#6 In order to arrive at a contradiction, it was necessary in some way to
introduce into the proof the fact that 4 was a factor of a – b. Only a
minority did this. Most candidates merely tried to manipulate the
equation a + b = 4c and consequently were unable to make any
progress in this question.
#7 No examimer comments are available for this question
#8 Although it was not uncommon to see candidates getting full marks
on this question, others failed to make a start and there were also
many false proofs. One read as follows:
Assume there is a value of for which sin + cos > √2
Squaring both sides we have sin² + cos ² > 2
But sin² + cos ² = 1
Therefore 1 > 2, a contradiction
#9 As is usually the case, only a small minority of candidates were able
to earn full marks on this question. Unfortunately, many candidates
were unable to get any further than
(x+1/x)² = x² + 1/x²
