beneath that cap
Hello everyone.
This is Mr Loi and I’m a full-time tutor with more than 13 years of experience, specializing in A-Level H1 & H2 Mathematics.
I’ve been roped in recently to help out at Miss Loi’s Temple, and given that my sister is currently busy with calling up everyone on her long waiting list, I’ve been given extra work asked to write something on this blog in her absence.
Having just gone through some of the lamest most bizarre articles I’ve ever seen on this blog, ermm … I really don’t know where to start.
But since the H2 Maths Paper 2 is going to be held tomorrow, I thought I might just leave you with a list of pure maths topics that didn’t appear in Paper 1 (and what I think might come out in Paper 2):
- Inequalities (Modulus Function)
- Parametric Equations (Tangent/Normal, Volume of Revolution & possibly together with Integration by substitution/part)
- Complex Numbers (Argand Diagrams, Loci)
- Recurrence Relationships (Limit/Convergence) – 见机行事吧!
- Matrices/System of Equations (Application-based)
- Partial Fractions (Binomial Expansion)
- Σ Notation (Method of Difference)
- Differential Equations (Application-based)
- Functions/Graph Transformation
At the same time, I’ve also worked out the solutions for Tuesday’s H2 Maths Paper 1. Do check if they tally with your answers and inform me if you have discover any mistake. Also, like what my sister have said, feel free to discuss in the comments below should you disagree with any of the answers/methods described within.

Ok that’s all from me for now. Happy revising your tutorials and all the best for your Paper 2 tomorrow!
P.S. I find that baseball cap pretty lame and silly. I will try to get the designer to remove it from my head soon.

hey answer for question 10b ii) and iii) is wrong. apparently the first term is 1.02 not 1.
曜

Alright guys, I've modified the workings for questions 10(ii)(b) and 10(ii)(c) to include the first term of 1.02 (as brought up by Kenny and highlighted by kid & marc) and changed the answers accordingly.
Thanks for your feedback and do highlight if you find any further part(s) that needs to be amended.
P.S. Someone: It wasn't stated explicitly in Qn 1 to find the exact value of a, so it should be ok to leave the answer in 3sf.
All the best for tomorrow!

Hi
Do you have 2008 o 'level mcq answer for biology?

For qn 10 (i), if you read carefully, the question is not asking for the sum of terms even though they asked what is the total amount.
Look. at jan: $ 10
Feb: $ 13
so when will his account have $ 2000? the method of doing should be looking for the term that is $2000 and not the sum of terms. i clarified this with a teacher.

Thought i’d leave a familiar number behind. ….7276.

Hmmm ... is there a split personality roaming around this blog??? *jots down number to buy for 4D tomorrow*
h1 student: Please hold while Miss Loi goes give Mr Loi a kick!
Ann: In case you're not yet aware, they're already out!

Mr maths: I fully understand where you and your 'cher are coming from. First let me reproduce question 10(i) in its entirety:
The way I read it is:
She saves $10 on 1 Jan i.e. she puts in $10
She saves $13 on 1 Feb i.e. she puts in $13
She saves $16 on 1 Mar i.e. she puts in $16
...
∴ based on what the question says, saving over $2000 in total ⇒ she has put in over $2000 in total ⇒ $10 + $13 + $16 ... > $2000 i.e.
But if you are to look for the term that is $2000 i.e.
you're in fact looking at the month whereby she PUTS in $2000 for that month, which is different from saving over $2000 in total.

Mr Loi how to contact you? I have a friend who's going to JC next year and wants to do maths tuition with you, but is scared your slots fill up too quickly.
曜
日
To reach Miss Loi's (much doted on) brother, most have to 过大姐这关 i.e. contact Miss Loi first.
Anyway just emailed you
