Students are shown 4 network diagrams (randomly selected from a pool of 20) and asked to identify which of them are trees.

Students are awarded 1 mark for each correct identification, and lose 1 mark for each non-tree they select.

As the number of trees can change, the number of marks that this question is worth can also change, ranging from 1 to 4.

Students are shown a graph with 6 vertices and asked to find the length of the shortest path from A to a random vertex.

There is only one graph, but all of the weights are randomised.

They can find the length any way they wish. In the advice, the steps of Dijkstra's algorithm used in solving this problem are displayed. It is not a complete worked solution but it should be sufficient to figure out the shortest path used to reach each vertex.

Students are randomly shown one of two networks. They are shown four sub-networks, and asked to identify which one is a minimum spanning tree for the network. Thus, there are 2 versions of this question.

Students are randomly shown one of 3 networks.

They are given 4 sub-networks and asked to identify which one is a spanning tree

This question displays one of 10 graphs. It asks the student to either 

(a) count the vertices, or

(b) count the edges, or

(c) state how many vertices a spanning tree would contain, or

(d) state how many edges a spanning tree would contain, or

(e) state the degree of a selected (randomly chosen) vertex.

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.

Students are given 2 right-angle triangles - two ramps of differing steepness up a step, and are asked to find one of a selection of randomly chosen lengths. The height of the step is given - it is randomised. Students are also given either the angle of incline of the steeper ramp or its length, both of which are randomised. They are also given the angle of incline of the shallower ramp, which is also randomised.

Students are shown a graph of the value of a machine over time. The line equation is randomised.

They are asked to evaluate value at a given time, and the time at which a given value is reached. They are asked when the machine has no value, and the range of times over which the model is valid. They are also asked to explain the physical meaning of the gradient.

Used for LANTITE preparation (Australia). NC = Non Calculator strand. NA = Number & Algebra strand. Given a description in words of the costs of some items in terms of an unknown cost, write down an expression for the total cost of a selection of items. Then simplify the expression. The word problem is about the costs of sweets in a sweet shop. The quantity of each type of sweet is randomised.

This question was modified from a Newcastle University question.

Used for LANTITE preparation (Australia). NA = Number & Algebra strand. Students must do a simple interest calculation (geven principal, rate and months, all of which are randomly generated) then subtract their answer from the supplied compound interest amount to find the difference.

Used for LANTITE preparation (Australia). NA = Number & Algebra strand. Students are given the number of years worked, and the price paid. They use the table to look up the percentage discount, then calculate the full price. The number of years and price paid are randomised.
