 1. A town B is 55 km on a bearing of 0500. A third town C lies 75km due south of B. Given that
D lies on a bearing of 2550 from C and 1700 from A, make an accurate scale drawing to show the positions of the four towns. (3mks)

(scale 1cm rep 10 km)
From this find,


(a) The distance of AD and DC in km (2mks)
(b) The distance and bearing of B from D (2mks)
(c) The bearing of C from A (1mk



2. A metal rod, cylindrical in shape has a radius of 4 cm and length of 14 cm. It is melted down
