y2 x 1 M1 Uses y y1 m x x1 or equivalent
14
x 14 y 29 A1 k = 29
2 2sin x sin x
3sin x M1 Uses tan x
cos x cos x
sin x 3cos x 2 0 M1 Deduces sin x 0 and solves
2
Either sin x 0 x 0 , 180 , 360 M1 Deduces cos x and solves
3

C is the point 4 1, 1 2 5, 3 M1 A1 Finds the point C
BC 5 4 3 1 5 units
2 2
M1 Finds length in either coordinate units or
metres
OR OR
AB 4 2 1 3 2 5 units

units
Each unit represents 2 m, and the cost is
£52 per metre, so A1 Accept £233 (nearest pound)
Total cost 5 2 52 £232.55
