Page 36 - In every triangle, the square of the side subtending either of the acute angles is less than the squares of the sides containing that angle, by twice the rectangle contained by either of these sides, and the straight line intercepted between the perpendicular let fall upon it from the opposite angle, and the acute angle.
Page 83 - GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS. If the rules are not attended to, the paper will be cancelled. You may take the Elementary or the Advanced or the Honours paper, but you must confine yourself to one of them.
Page 47 - The value attached to each question is shown in brackets after the question. But a full and correct answer to an easy question will in all caaes secure a larger number of marks than an incomplete or inexact answer to a more difficult one.
Page 30 - If a straight line be divided into any two parts, the squares on the whole line, and on one of the parts, are equal to twice the rectangle contained by the whole and that part, together with the square on the other part. Let the straight line AB be divided into any two parts in the point C. Then the squares on AB, BC shall be equal to twice the rectangle AB, BC, together with the square on A C.
Page 99 - Put the number of the question before your answer. You are to confine your answers strictly to the questions proposed. Your name is not given to the Examiner, and you are forbidden to write to him about your answers.

Page 10 - In all cases the number of the question must be placed before the answer on the worked paper.
Page 69 - A wire connecting the platinum and zinc ends of a battery is stretched vertically half way between the needles. How will the current in the wire affect the needles, and how will the result depend upon whether the platinum terminal is connected with the upper or lower end of the wire respectively ? 14.
Page 32 - IF a straight line be bisected, and produced to any point: the rectangle contained by the whole line thus produced, and the part of it produced, together with the square...
