Question in Anna's workspace
Calculate the local extrema of a function ${f(x) = e^{x/C1}(C2sin(x)-C3cos(x))}$
The graph of f(x) has to be identified.
The first derivative of f(x) has to be calculated.
The min max points have to be identified using the graph and/or calculated using the first derivative method. Requires solving trigonometric equation

Question in Demos
Give the student three points lying on a quadratic, and ask them to find the roots.
Then ask them to find the equation of the quadratic, using their roots. Error in calculating the roots is carried forward.
Finally, ask them to find the midpoint of the roots (just for fun). Error is carried forward again.

A randomised line in a GeoGebra worksheet - construct the definition of the line manually Should not be usedQuestion in How-tos
Construct a line in a GeoGebra worksheet by writing its definition string by hand.
This isn't a very neat way of doing this. It's easier to define two points in GeoGebra, then make a line through those points. You can set the positions of the points from Numbas using vectors.

Question in Content created by Newcastle University
A plane goes through three given non-collinear points in 3-space. Find the Cartesian equation of the plane in the form $ax+by+cz=d$.
There is a problem in that this equation can be multiplied by a constant and be correct. Perhaps d can be given as this makes a,b and c unique and the method of the question will give the correct solution.

Find angle between plane $\Pi_1$, given by three points, and the plane $\Pi_2$ given in Cartesian form.
The calculation of $cos(\alpha)$ at the end of Advice has fractionNumbers switched on and so the result is presented as a fraction, which can be misleading. Best if calculation is followed through without using fractionNumbers.

Question in Content created by Newcastle University
Find minimum distance between a point and a line in 3-space. The line goes through a given point in the direction of a given vector.
The correct solution is given, however the accuracy of 0.001 is not enough as in some cases answers near to the correct solution are also marked as correct.

Question in Content created by Newcastle University
Find the stationary points of the function: $f(x,y)=a x ^ 3 + b x ^ 2 y + c y ^ 2 x + dy$ by choosing from a list of points.
Inputting the values given into the partial derivatives to see if 0 is obtained is tedious! Could ask for the factorisation of equation 1 as the solution uses this. However there is a problem in asking for the input of the stationary points - order of input and also giving that there is two stationary points.
