Notes:
(a)
B1: Either of awrt 1.075 or awrt.1.041 correct
B1: Both of awrt 1.075 and awrt.1.041 correct
Remember to check the body of the script for the values if the table has not been completed.
Note that the incorrect values of 2.758 and 2.457 come from the use of degrees.
(Which gives 4.51 in (b))
(b)
B1: Correct interval width seen or implied by working.
M1: Correct application of the trapezium rule. Must all be y values, and should be first + last +
2(sum of middle values), but if one middle value is omitted allow as a slip. A repeated value is
M0. Follow through their values from (a). Allow obvious copying slips.

Allow this mark if they add the areas of individual trapezia e.g.

A1: For awrt 2.96. Allow to come from answers in (a) incorrectly rounded or wrong accuracy.
FYI: Use of rounded figure gives 2.96225, use of calculated figures gives 2.9625726… Actual value is 2.89
to 2 decimal places.
