The scale drawing shows a plot of land, PQRS. The scale is 1 cm to 20 m. [Figure of plot PQRS with North arrow] Scale: 1 cm to 20 m

  1. (a)A path crosses the land. The path is equidistant from SP and SR. Use a straight edge and compasses only to construct the path.[2]
  2. (b)(i)Priya walks from point P to the path on a bearing of 104°. Draw a line to represent Priya's walk.[1]
  3. (b)(ii)Find the actual distance from P to where Priya meets the path.[2]
  4. (c)A car park is to be built on the plot of land. On the scale drawing the area of the car park will be 2cm². Find the actual area of the car park.[2]

Mark scheme

Marking points from the official mark scheme (Oct/Nov 2022). The mark or mark type is shown in brackets.

  1. [2] Acceptable bisector of angle PSR with correct arcs meeting line PQ
  2. B1 for acceptable bisector of angle PSR with no/incorrect arcs
  3. [1] Line drawn on bearing 104° from P
  4. [2] 152 to 160 dep on correct angle bisector and correct bearing drawn
  5. B1FT for correct measurement of their line from P to their bisector
  6. or M1 for their distance in cm written and their answer is 20× this value
  7. [2] 800
  8. M1 for 1 cm² = 400 m² soi
