Grade 12 Mathematics Paper 2 Final Exam Prep 2026 (LVL7) Exam-style practice for the NSC Mathematics Paper 2 exam on Monday 26 October 2026, with a full memo for every question. What's inside: • 40 original exam-style questions • 247 marks of practice, over one and a half full Paper 2s' worth • Full step-by-step memos for every question • Mark-by-mark breakdowns, plus a reason for every Euclidean geometry statement • Diagrams for every geometry and graph question • Every answer worked in full • A topic toolkit of must-know facts at the start of each topic • A Mark Tracker that converts your score into an NSC level (1 to 7) • NSC conventions throughout: decimal comma, (x; y) coordinates, angles in degrees • 32 pages Topics covered (all four Paper 2 topics): • Statistics and regression • Analytical geometry • Trigonometry • Euclidean geometry How to use it: time yourself using the marks on each question, write full working with reasons, mark yourself against the memo tick by tick, then redo the questions you dropped marks on. For learners: target the Paper 2 sections that cost you marks, especially geometry reasons and trig identities. For parents: a complete, worked practice pack your child can use on their own, on a phone or printed. For tutors: original questions with diagrams and mark allocations per sub-question, ready for timed sessions. Format: PDF, works on phone, tablet or laptop, and prints cleanly. Also available: LVL7 Paper 1 Exam Prep (R89) and the Paper 1 + Paper 2 bundle (R149). All questions are original and written in the style of NSC Paper 2; no past-paper questions are reproduced.

INSIDE THE PACK

How the worked memos work
Every question in this pack has a worked memo laid out like the one below: the working an examiner
expects, a tick 3 beside each line that earns a mark, and the mark allocation underneath. This is
question T11, exactly as it appears in Topic 3.

THE QUESTION
T11 Trig graphs from Topic 3, page 11

The graphs of 𝑓 (𝑥) = cos 2𝑥 and 𝑔(𝑥) = sin(𝑥 + 30∘ ) are drawn below for 𝑥 ∈ [−180∘ ; 180∘ ].
(a) Write down the period of 𝑓 and the range of 𝑔. (2)
(b) Calculate the 𝑥-coordinates of the points where 𝑓 and 𝑔 intersect in the given interval. (5)
(c) For which values of 𝑥, 𝑥 ∈ [0∘ ; 180∘ ], is 𝑓 (𝑥) ⋅ 𝑔(𝑥) < 0? (2)

THE WORKED MEMO
T11 Trig graphs memo page 26

(a) Period of 𝑓 = 180∘ 3 Range of 𝑔: [−1; 1] 3
(b) cos 2𝑥 = sin(𝑥 + 30∘ ) = cos(60∘ − 𝑥) 3
2𝑥 = 60∘ − 𝑥 + 𝑘 ⋅ 360∘ ⇒ 𝑥 = 20∘ + 𝑘 ⋅ 120∘ 3
2𝑥 = 𝑥 − 60∘ + 𝑘 ⋅ 360∘ ⇒ 𝑥 = −60∘ + 𝑘 ⋅ 360∘ 3
In [−180∘ ; 180∘ ]: 𝑥 ∈ {−100∘ ; −60∘ ; 20∘ ; 140∘ } 33
(c) 𝑓 < 0 and 𝑔 > 0 for 45∘ < 𝑥 < 135∘ ; 𝑓 > 0 and 𝑔 < 0 for 150∘ < 𝑥 ≤ 180∘ .
𝑥 ∈ (45∘ ; 135∘ ) ∪ (150∘ ; 180∘ ] 33
Mark allocation (a) 1 each; (b) 1 co-function, 1 each general case, 2 values in interval; (c) 1 each interval Total 9

• Standard deviation (NSC uses the population formula): 𝜎 = . Use the STAT mode of

• Adding 𝑘 to every value adds 𝑘 to the mean and leaves 𝜎 unchanged. Multiplying every value by
𝑘 multiplies both by 𝑘.
