Question
The diagram shows a rectangular based right pyramid VABCD in which \({\text{AD}} = 20{\text{ cm}}\), \({\text{DC}} = 15{\text{ cm}}\) and the height of the pyramid, \({\text{VN}} = 30{\text{ cm}}\).
Calculate
(i) the length of AC;
(ii) the length of VC.[4]
Calculate the angle between VC and the base ABCD.[2]

Note: Follow through from their AC found in part (a).
\(\sin {\text{VCN}} = \frac{{30}}{{32.5}}\) OR \(\tan {\text{VCN}} = \frac{{30}}{{12.5}}\) OR \(\cos {\text{VCN}} = \frac{{12.5}}{{32.5}}\) (M1)

Question
A child’s toy consists of a hemisphere with a right circular cone on top. The height of the cone is \(12{\text{ cm}}\) and the radius of its base is \(5{\text{ cm}}\) . The toy is painted red.
Calculate the length, \(l\), of the slant height of the cone.[2]
Calculate the area that is painted red.[4]
Answer/Explanation
Markscheme
\(\sqrt {{5^2} + {{12}^2}} \) (M1)
Note: Award (M1) for correct substitution in Pythagoras Formula.
=\(13{\text{ (cm)}}\) (A1) (C2)
\({\text{Area}} = 2\pi {(5)^2} + \pi (5)(13)\) (M1)(M1)(M1)
Notes: Award (M1) for surface area of hemisphere, (M1) for surface of cone, (M1) for addition of two surface areas. Follow through from their answer to part (a).
\( = 361{\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^2}\) (\(361.283 \ldots \)) (A1)(ft) (C4)
Note: The answer is \( 361{\text{ c}}{{\text{m}}^2}\) , the units are required.
