A1*: Achieves given answer, including units, showing all steps with no errors and full
accuracy kept throughout. Score A0 if rounded values were used during working.
Approaches by verification are acceptable. The first M1 will apply the same way, a clear
attempt at the sector area formula will be needed to determine the area.
The second M may then be gained for attempting
Then for the A mark the calculations need to both be correct (giving 15), and a
conclusion made: E.g. (so) Area R2 = 3.75 km2.
