SUBJECT:            MATHEMATICS P2 GR11 EXAMINATIONS ERRATUM

DATE:               24 NOVEMBER 2023

The Mathematics P2 Grade 11 for the November Examinations 2023 was written on Monday, the
13 November 2023. We were made aware of errors and omissions that was discovered during the marking
process.

The amendment with regards to the marking was prepared in conjunction with the examiner and the
moderator of the paper. This amendment addresses the errors and omissions and also ensures that learners
are not disadvantaged. The following standardised approach to marking must be adopted across the
Province.

QUESTION 5 – 3D DIAGRAM

•     The 3D diagram is indeed a Grade 12 question and the whole question should be taken out of the
      question paper, resulting in the paper being marked out of 140. Although the question tests grade
      11 knowledge the diagram should only be for grade 12. Teachers to use their discretion as it was not
      a difficult question.

QUESTION 6

6.2.2      Alternative - −45° ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 0° or 45° ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 180° but 𝑥 ≠ 90°

QUESTION 7

7.1.1     Alternative

          𝑂𝑅 2 = (2𝑥)2 + 202
          𝑂𝑅 2 = 4𝑥 2 + 400

          𝑂𝑅 = √4𝑥 2 + 400

QUESTION 8

(We apologise for the one line for the answers. However, learners could also use the additional space
for additional answers.)

8.2.3     Since the question is only 2 marks, we must accept the memorandum reason as well (angles
          of a triangle) as a reason.

QUESTION 10

Statement correction: Question says tangent AC instead of AT. It then messes up the question.

Recommendation: Mark according to what learners wrote, if they worked on AC being a tangent.
                QUESTION 10 has been regarded as a very difficult question by the learners and
                this incorrect tangent information could have given learners anxiety and stress.
                Happy to award an additional / free 2 (“anxiety”) marks for the overall question.
                We do regret the typing error.

REMEDIAL ACTION

Question paper to be marked out of 140 (leaving question 5 out) and converted to 150 marks.

We request that this must be brought to the attention of all educators marking these papers and sincerely
apologise for the inconvenience.

Yours in education.
