This is a set of practice questions for the non-right-angle trig component of the Australian year 12 Mathematics Standard 2 course.

It asks questions about

• finding sides and angles of right angle triangles,
• finding areas of triangles,
• using the sine rule,
• using the cos rule,
• bearings, and
• radial surveys.

Solve unknown on one side

Divide $ f(x)=x ^ 4 + ax ^ 3 + bx^2 + cx+d$ by $g(x)=x^2+p $ so that:
$\displaystyle \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=q(x)+\frac{r(x)}{g(x)}$

A question testing the application of the Area of a Triangle formula when given two sides and an angle. In these questions, the triangle is always acute and both of the given side lengths are adjacent to the given angle.

Two questions testing the application of the Sine Rule when given two angles and a side. In this question, the triangle is always acute.

Two questions testing the application of the Sine Rule when given two sides and an angle. In this question, the triangle is always acute and one of the given side lengths is opposite the given angle.

Finding the lengths and angles within a right-angled triangle using: pythagoras theorem, SOHCAHTOA and principle of angles adding up to 180 degrees.

Two questions testing the application of the Cosine Rule when given two sides and an angle. In these questions, the triangle is always acute and both of the given side lengths are adjacent to the given angle.

A question testing the application of the Cosine Rule when given three side lengths. In this question, the triangle is always acute. A secondary application is finding the area of a triangle.

Provided with information on a sample with sample mean and known population variance, use the z test to either or reject a given null hypothesis. One sided.

Some clever variable-substitution trickery to randomly pick two sides of a right-angled triangle to give to a student, and ask for the other.

The sides are set up so they're always Pythagorean triples, and the opposite side is always odd.

As ever, most of the tricky stuff is in the advice. 

Because this was created quickly to show how to set up the randomisation, there's no diagram. It would benefit greatly from a diagram.

Find the Cartesian form $ax+by+cz=d$ of the equation of the plane $\boldsymbol{r=r_0+\lambda a+\mu b}$.

The solution is not unique. The constant on right hand side could be given to ensure that the left hand side is unique.

Question on $\displaystyle{\lim_{n\to \infty} a^{1/n}=1}$. Find least integer $N$ s.t.  $\ \left |1-\left(\frac{1}{c}\right)^{b/n}\right| \le10^{-r},\;n \geq N$

A question testing the application of the Cosine Rule when given three side lengths. In this question, the triangle is always acute. A secondary application is finding the area of a triangle.

A question testing the application of the Cosine Rule when given three side lengths. In this question, the triangle is always obtuse. A secondary application is finding the area of a triangle.

Two questions testing the application of the Sine Rule when given two angles and a side. In this question the triangle is obtuse. In one question, the two given angles are both acute. In the second, one of the angles is obtuse.

Two questions testing the application of the Sine Rule when given two sides and an angle. In this question, the triangle is always acute and one of the given side lengths is opposite the given angle.

A question testing the application of the Sine Rule when given two sides and an angle.  In this question the triangle is obtuse and the first angle to be found is obtuse.

Contour integral of a complex-valued function $f(z)$ with the poles of $f(z)$ either inside or outside the path $C$.

Solve a simple linear equation algebraically. The unknown appears on both sides of the equation.

Finding unknown sides/angles in right-angled triangles.  6 different combinations of unknowns are included in this single question. Makes my previous questions redundant

A quadratic function $ax^2+bs+c$ is given. Six parabolas are sketched. Question is to select the correct parabola.  Need to consider the y-intercept, the coefficient of x^2, and the x-coordinate of the minimum/maximum point.
