Instructions Test period Tools The test

115 minutes. We recommend that you reserve about 30 minutes to work with item 8. Calculator, formula sheet and ruler. The test includes 10 items. For most items a single answer is not enough. It is also expected that you write down what you do that you explain/motivate your reasoning that you draw any necessary illustrations. For some items only an answer is required. They are marked with, Only answer is required. After every item is given the maximum mark your solution can receive. (2/3) means that the item can give 2 g-points (Pass level) and 3 vg-points (Pass with distinction level). Items marked with give you a possibility to show MVG-quality (Pass with special distinction quality). This means e g that you use generalised methods, models and reasoning, that you analyse your results and account for a clear line of thought in a correct mathematical language. Item number 8 is a larger item that demands a longer time to solve than other items. It is important that you make a try to solve this item. Above the item is written what the teacher has to consider at the assessment.

Mark limits

The test gives totally at the most 59 points, out of which 26 vg-points. To get the test character Pass you must have at least 18 points and to get the test character Pass with distinction you must have at least 33 points out of which at least 12 points on Pass with distinction level. Write your name on all sheets of paper you hand in.

Suggested solution: Answer: y =

Lets name the intersection of AE and BD point O . Due to the fact that ABCD is a rectangle, AD is parallel to BC . Therefore the angles DBC and ADB are alternative angels and therefore are equal. Similarly angles AEB and EAD are equal. On the other hand the angles AOD and BOE are vertical opposite angles and therefore are equal. Therefore, the triangles AOD and BOE are similar triangles and therefore the fractional relationship between the similar sides are equal: [0/1]
