Given price, marginal cost and fixed cost, find the quantity that maximises profits.

This question plots a general amplitude modulated carrier signal defined by $v_s(t) = (V_{DC} + V_m \cos(2\pi f_m t))\cos(2\pi f_c t)$, where $V_{DC}$ is a DC offset, $V_m$ is the message amplitude, $f_m$ is the message frequency and $f_c$ is the carrier frequency ($f_c = 20f_m$ in this question). The student must identify the values of $V_{DC}$ and $V_m$ and enter these values into the appropriate gaps in the equation of the AM signal.

Given a graph of the form either a.cos(bx) or a.sin(bx), identify the amplitude and period.

Question about use of trig identities, student has to use identities to find exact value of \(\cos \frac{7\pi}{12}\). Question is used in exam where student has to write out the solution and upload it for grading.

Question requires students to determine if the smallest angle of a triangle is smaller than a given value. Answer is Yes/No but students need to use cosine rule to find the smallest angle and to know that smallest angle is oppositeshortest side (otherwise they will need to find all angles of the triangle). Designed for a test where students upload handwritten working for each question as a check against guessing. Also designed to make it difficult for students to google or use AI to find the answer.

Question requires students to determine if the largest angle of a triangle is smaller than a given value. Answer is Yes/No but students need to use cosine rule to find the largest angle and to know that largest angle is opposite longest side (otherwise they will need to find all angles of the triangle). Designed for a test where students upload handwritten working for each question as a check against guessing. Also designed to make it difficult for students to google or use AI to find the answer.

Students are given lengths of 3 sides of a triangle (all randomised) and asked to find one of the angles in degrees. Requires use of the cosine rule.

Using given information to complete the equation $c= A \cos{ \left( \frac{2 \pi}{P} \left( t-H \right) \right) }+V $ that describes the concentration, $c$, of perscribed drug in a patient's drug over time, $t$. Calculating the maximum concentration and the concentration at a specific time.
