7 Thomas read about radioactivity in a science magazine, and came across this
definition - ‘The time taken for a radioactive material to decompose to half its
original amount is called its half life.’
The number, N, of a batch of radioactive atoms, t years after they start to decompose
is given by the equation N N 0e t , where N0, the original amount of radioactive
atoms, and are constants.

A farmer fences part of his land. He puts fences around the perimeter of the trapezium
ABCD. He also puts fences from A to E and from B to F, where AE and BF are
perpendicular to DC. Angle ADE = angle BCF = x radians and the lengths of AD and BC
are 60 m. It is also given that AB = 70 m.
