Technical Mathematics/P2 2 Hlayiso/Mock 2026 NSC – Marking Guidelines MARKING CODES A Accuracy CA Consistent accuracy M Method R Rounding NPR No penalty for rounding NPU No penalty for units omitted S Simplification SF Substitution in correct formula S/R Statement/Reason AO Answer only NOTE: • If a candidate answers a question TWICE, only mark the FIRST attempt. • Consistent accuracy (CA) applies in ALL aspects of the marking guidelines where indicated. • No penalty for rounding (NPR) for ALL questions, unless stated otherwise. • In QUESTIONS 6, 7 and 8 (Euclidean geometry) a statement without the correct reason earns no mark for the reason. Accept any valid alternative method.
