KS3 Revision work answers
Level 8
1. 100 1
6 1 [2]
2. (a) Gives a correct explanation 1
The most common correct explanations:
Show that the values 6, 8 and 10 work using
Pythagoras’ theorem
eg
• 62 + 8
2 = 36 + 64
= 100
= 102
• 102
– 82 = 100 – 64
= 36
= 62
Do not accept: explanation uses only accurate or scale
drawing
Accept : minimally acceptable explanation
eg
• 62 + 8
2 = 10
2
• 36 + 64 = 100
• The square of the longest side is equal
to the sum of the squares of the other
two sides
Do not accept: incomplete explanation
eg
• 62
+ 82
• 36 + 64
Hertfordshire La Schools 2
State or imply that the triangle is an enlargement of a 3, 4, 5
right-angled triangle
eg
• A 3, 4, 5 triangle is right-angled and 3 × 2 = 6, 4 × 2 = 8
and 5 × 2 = 10
• It’s just a 3, 4, 5 triangle with the lengths of the sides doubled
• Because 6, 8 and 10 make a Pythagorean triple
Accept: minimally acceptable explanation
eg
• It’s an enlarged 3, 4, 5 triangle
• 3 × 2 = 6, 4 × 2 = 8 and 5 × 2 = 10
Do not accept: incomplete explanation
eg
It’s like a 3, 4, 5 triangle
(b) Gives a correct justification 1
eg
• 6
9.6 × 8 = 9.2
• 8 × 1.15 = 9.2
• 9.2 ÷ 1.15 = 8
• 6.9 ÷ 9.2 = 4
3
6 ÷ 8 = 4
3
• 6 6.9 is a 15% increase
8 × 0.15 = 1.2
8 + 1.2 = 9.2
• tan–1
6
8 = 53.1...
6.9 × tan 53.1… = 9.2

60 isn’t defined
Accept minimally acceptable explanation
eg
The denominator would be zero
You can’t divide by 0
There’s nothing to divide 60 by
0

60 =
Do not accept incomplete or incorrect
explanation
eg
It’s 0
60 and that’s impossible
Because 10 – 10 = 0
You cannot divide by zero and you

6. (a) Gives a correct explanation that shows the correct application 1
of Pythagoras’ theorem
eg
(52 + 5
2) = (25 + 25)
5 × 5 + 5 × 5 = 50, so y = 50
y2 = 5
2 + 5
2
y2 = 50
y = 50
50
25

y 255
so = 50and = 50
yy
2
It’s an enlargement of a 1, 1, 2 triangle, so
it’s 52 and 52 = 50
Accept minimally acceptable explanation
eg
(52 + 5
2)
52+ 5
2
(25 + 25)
(2 × 25)
2 × 25 = 50 [with no evidence of a
misconception, eg about area]
5 2 = (52 × 2)
! Throughout the question, incorrect notation
or incorrect further working alongside a
correct explanation
Condone
eg, for part (a) accept
y2 = 5
2 + 5
2
y
2 = 50
y2 (error) = 50
5 × 5 + 5 × 5 = 50,
so length is 50 = 7.5 (error)
Hertfordshire La Schools 9
Do not accept incomplete or incorrect explanation
eg
y2 = 50
Use Pythagoras
25 + 25
It’s 2 × 25
5 × 10 = 50 and y = 50
Area = 5 × 5 × 2
= 50
5 × 5 = 25 which is half the square,
so 25 × 2 = 50
(b) Indicates 200 and gives a correct explanation 1
eg
250 = 4 × 50 = 200
The sides would be 10cm
(102 + 10
2) = 200
102 = 100 × 2 = 200
100 is 10, 10 ÷ 2 = 5 but the length of the diagonal of the small
square is >5
100 = 10, but 50 ≠ 5
Accept minimally acceptable explanation
eg
2 50 = 4 × 50
(102 + 10
2)
10 2 + 10
2
10 × 10 = 100, 100 × 2
Do not accept incomplete or incorrect explanation
eg
200 = 2 50
10 2
100 = 10
50 × 2 then × 2 again
Area = 10 × 10 × 2
= 200 [2]

7. Expressions
(a) For 2m indicates a correct simplified expression, eg: 2
18x3
18 (x3)
For 2m do not accept x3 not expressed as a power eg:
‘x × x × x × 18
For only 1m shows a correct simplified expression for the cross-sectional area, eg:
6x2
For 1m, the response need not state that 6x2 relates to the area, but do not accept 6x2 derived from incorrect methods.
or Shows a correct partially simplified expression for the volume, eg:
x × x × x × 18
6x2 × 3x
(8x2 – 2x2) × 3x
3x × (4 x2 + 2 x2)
(4 x2 + 2x × x) 3x
3x (2x × 4x – 2x × x)
4x2 × 3x + 6x2 × x
8x2 × 3x – 2x × x × 3x
Do not accept omission of brackets where required eg:
‘8x2 – 2x2 × 3x’
Do not accept an expression that has no simplification eg:
‘2x × 4x × 3x – 2x × x × 3x’
or Simplifies fully but makes one computational error, eg:
(2x × 2x + 2x × x) 3x = (2x2 + 2x2) 3x = 4x2 × 3x = 12 x3
Do not accept incorrect multiplication by x2 or x as a computational error.
(b) Indicates 90 1
Accept values of 90 multiples of 360, provided 90 is also shown.
Hertfordshire La Schools 11
(c) For 2m indicates 5 2
For only 1m shows a correct value for x3, eg:
x3 = 125
For 1m, accept implied values eg:
‘500/0.5 = 1000, ‚ 8 = 125’
or Makes one computational error then correctly follows through to solve for x, eg:
8x3 × ½ = 500, 8x3 = 250, x3 = 31.25, so x = 3.15
Values of x may be rounded or truncated to 1 or more d.p.
or Uses an incorrect value for sin a then correctly follows through to solve for x, eg:
8x3 × 0.45 = 500, so 8x3 = 1111 x3 = 139 so x = 5.2
Accept an incorrect value for sin a provided 0 < sin a < 1 [5]

Horizontal lines need not be drawn across from the vertical axis at points 10 (or 10.5 or 10.25) and 30 (or 30.5 or 30.75) to meet the cumulative frequency graph.
Ignore any lines drawn to find the median, and other lines drawn, provided it is clear that they do not relate to the interquartile range.
Do not accept a range given eg:
26 to 37

For only 1m draws a graph passing through seven of the eight points, eg:
Graph passes through all eight points apart from (25,0)
Graph passes correctly through seven of the eight points but goes through (55,28) instead of (55,27)
The graph may be a curve or a series of straight lines.
Do not accept two or more graphs drawn.
For 1m accept all eight points marked correctly but not all joined.
For 1m accept graph drawn through all eight points consistently 1 square to the left of the correct positions [apart from( 25,0)] ie
Graph passes through (24,0), (29,1), (34,3), etc.

16. Angle proof
(a) Gives a correct explanation, eg 1
U1
BO and OA are radii, so triangle OBA is isosceles, so ABO = BAO. The same
is true of CO and OB, so BCO = OBC
Both triangles are isosceles because two of their sides are radii of the circle
Hertfordshire La Schools 22
Triangle AOB is isosceles because O is the centre and A and B are on the
circumference, and so is triangle BOC
Accept minimally acceptable explanation, eg
BO and OA are radii, so ABO = BAO. The same is true
of CO and OB
! Explanation correct but only refers to one of ABO or CBO
As the explanations are essentially the same for both angles, condone
Do not accept incomplete explanation that does not explain why
the triangles are isosceles, eg
OC = OB, so OCB = OBC, and the same for ABO
Both triangles are isosceles
(b) Gives a correct proof, eg 1
U1
x + x + y + y = 180
2x + 2y = 180
so x + y = 90 = CBA
Accept minimally acceptable justification, eg
x + x + y + y = 180, so x + y = 90 [4]

eg
▪ The median was about 44.5
▪ The median is at the 2500th value and when you read the graph down from that
value you can see it is greater than 40
▪ Only 1750 pupils got up to 38 marks and you need 2500 for the median
▪ About 1750 pupils scored 38 or less which is the 35th percentile
▪ Up to 38 is only 1750 pupils and that’s less than half

Do not accept: incomplete explanation
eg
• The 2500th value is not 38
• 38 is not in the middle of the cumulative
frequency
• 38 is too small to be the median
• Most pupils scored more than 38
(b) Indicates True and gives a correct explanation 1
eg
▪ The LQ is about 33.5

whether interior or exterior angles are being considered, or
to which shape the angles belong
For 3m, accept only if there is no redundant information and
the justification is unambiguous
eg, accept
