Question in Standard Maths
Students are given a diagram with 2 triangles. They are given 2 randomised lengths, and a randomised angle of depression.
They need to compute an angle by subtracting the angle of depression from 90°. Then they need to use the sine rule to calculate a second angle. Then they need to use the alternate angles on parallel lines theorem to work out a third angle. They use these to calculate a third angle, which they use in the right-angle triangle with the sine ratio to compute the third side. They then use the cos ratio to compute the length of the third side.

Question in Standard Maths
The student is given a triangle with one side running N-S. They are given bearings for the other two sides. They are given the length of the N-S side.
The bearings and the length are randomised.
They are then asked to find the area and the perimeter of the triangle.

Question in Standard Maths
Students are shown one of 5 different radial surveys and asked to answer one of 8 questions about it.
2 questions ask for the length of a side.
2 questions ask for the value of an angle.
2 questions ask for the area of a triangle.
1 question asks for the land area, and 1 question asks for the land perimeter.
The values are hard coded. In cases where your choice of precision affects your answer, a range of answers is accepted, and a comment is made in the advice to that effect.

Question in Glasgow Numbas Question Pool
Calculate the distance between two points along the surface of a sphere using the cosine rule of spherical trigonometry. Context is two places on the surface of the Earth, using latitude and longitude.
The question is randomised so that the numerical values for Latitude for A and B will be positive and different (10-25 and 40-70 degrees). As will the values for Longitude (5-25 and 50-75). The question statement specifies both points are North in latitude, but one East and one West longitude, This means that students need to deal with angles across the prime meridian, but not the equator.
Students first calculate the side of the spherical triangle in degrees, then in part b they convert the degrees to kilometers. Part a will be marked as correct if in the range true answer +-1degree, as long as the answer is given to 4 decimal places. This allows for students to make the mistake of rounding too much during the calculation steps.

Question in NCL MAS2707
Consider a binary tree with $2^n$ nodes.
We give generators for the isomorphisms of the tree: at each non-leaf vertex, swap the branches descending from that node.
- What is the action of a given word?
- Write a word which produces the required isomorphism
- Which generators commute?
- What is the order of each generator?
- Write one of the (non-root) generators in terms of the others.
- Which permutations of the leaves are possible?
- What is the order of the group of isomorphisms?
- What is the order of the quotient group obtained by identifying all the leaves of one branch?
