Two consecutive odd numbers are such that the difference between thrice the larger number and twice the smaller number is 21. Find the product of the numbers. a 2 Under a transformation whose matrix is T a 10. 2 a figure whose area is a 2.5 cm 2 is mapped onto a figure whose area is 10cm2. Find two possible values of a and hence write down two possible matrices. SECTION B (60 marks) 11. a) i) Construct a parallelogram PQRS in which PQ = 7cm, QR = 4cm and PQR = 1200. ii) Measure length PR b) Two straight roads intersect at an angle of 300. A hut is built so that it is equidistant from the two roads and 30m from the point of intersection. Using a scale of 1cm to 10m, show all possible positions of the hut. 12. A lampshade is in the form of a frustum of a cone. Its bottom and top diameters are 12cm and 8cm respectively. Its height is 6cm. 8cm 6cm 12cm a) b) Find the area of the curved surface of the lamp shade The material used for making the lampshade is sold at sh.8000 per square metre. Find the cost of ten lampshades if a lampshade is sold at twice the cost of the material. 3 13.
