Solution:
(i) Food

(ii)

 
 
 
Question 10 (b):
Diagram 10.2 shows a polygon HABCD and a square JKLM.
(i) Under a transformation, polygon HABCD will be transformed such that the image will be placed inside the square JKLM. The image formed based on the following conditions:

Suggest one possible complete transformation.
(ii) Using the transformation that you have suggested in (b)(i), mark the new position of point W in Diagram 10.2.

Solution:
 (i)
 

(ii)

 
 
 
Question 10 (c):
Diagram 10.3 shows a car route from P to S. The driver starts the journey from P. When he reaches R, he turns back and travels ¼ the distance of P to R and then he continues to S to finish his journey.

Table 10 shows the distance between the destinations.

Assuming that the distance travelled in the journey when the driver turns back as a wasted distance, calculate the fraction of the wasted distance to the distance of the whole journey.

Solution:
