CAMBRIDGE INTERNATIONAL EXAMINATIONS General Certificate of Education Advanced Subsidiary Level MATHEMATICS 8709/2 PAPER 2 Pure Mathematics 2 (P2) OCTOBER/NOVEMBER SESSION 2001 1 hour 15 minutes Additional materials: Answer paper Graph paper List of Formulae (MF9) TIME = 1: hour 15 minutes INSTRUCTIONS TO CANDIDATES Write your name, Centre number and candidate number in the spaces provided on the answer paper/answer booklet. Answer all the questions. Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place in the case of angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question. INFORMATION FOR CANDIDATES The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question. The total number of marks for this paper is 50. Questions carrying smaller numbers of marks are printed earlier in the paper, and questions carrying larger numbers of marks later in the paper. The use of an electronic calculator is expected, where appropriate. You are reminded of the need for clear presentation in your answers.
