1).Find the co-ordinates of the point A on the line x= -3 such that the line joining A to B(5,3) is perpendicular to the line 2x+5y =12.

2). Using the vertices A(2a,2b), B(-2c, 0), C(2c,0).
(i) prove that the medians of a triangle are concurrent. (a median is a line joining a vertex to a midpoint of the opposite sides; the lines are concurrent if they have a common point of intersection);
(ii) show that the centroid is 2a/3, 2b/3. (a centroid is the point of intersection of the medians).


Opps sorry for Edit, i entered the wrong question! its for my uni. thx

Good god, you're stupid (if you're under the age of 13, I take that back. Although, even then...).

Well, if your example is correct they are in millions not thousands.

Express each one in standard form - ie 0.040 becomes 4 x 10 to the power of -2

if 1000s 4 x (10 to the power of -2) x (10 to the power of 3) = 4 x (10 to the power of 1) or 40
If millions 4 x (10 to the power of -2) x (10 to the power of 6) = 4 x (10 to the power of 4) or 40,000

lies!
that's gcse maths, what crappy uni are you at?!
 
Its not that hard but i wasnt there for the lesson.

i goto Oxford

brookes?

somehow i highly doubt someone at oxford would post on OcUK asking for maths help.. and i also highly doubt that anyone doing a degree at oxford would be doing such a low level of mathematics at this stage in the year..

lol, you like bashing peoples uni's don't you?

i'm not serious most of the time :p
but if he was at oxford, or even any university, how would he have access to a KS1 maths question and post it by mistake without noticing?
