Senior 3 Math Practice Set with Solutions
Senior 3 Math Practice Questions & Answers
1. Algebra
Q1: Solve: 3x - 5 = 16
Step 1: Add 5 to both sides -> 3x = 21
Step 2: Divide both sides by 3 -> x = 7
Answer: x = 7
Q2: Factor: x² - 5x + 6
Step 1: Find two numbers that multiply to 6 and add to -5 -> -2 and -3
Step 2: Factor: (x - 2)(x - 3)
Answer: (x - 2)(x - 3)
Q3: Solve the system: x + y = 7 and 2x - y = 4
Add equations: 3x = 11 -> x = 11/3
Substitute into x + y = 7 -> y = 10/3
Answer: x = 11/3, y = 10/3
2. Geometry
Q4: Triangle with angles 45°, 65°, and x
x = 180 - (45 + 65) = 70°
Answer: x = 70°

Q5: Isosceles triangle with two 70° angles
Third angle = 180 - (70 + 70) = 40°
Answer: 40°
Q6: Circle with central angle 80°
Angle at circumference = 1/2 × 80 = 40°
Answer: 40°
3. Trigonometry
Q7: Opposite = 4, Hypotenuse = 5 -> sin(theta) = 4/5 = 0.8
Answer: sin(theta) = 0.8
Q8: Adjacent = 6, Hypotenuse = 10 -> cos(theta) = 6/10 = 0.6
Answer: cos(theta) = 0.6
4. Statistics & Probability
Q9: Mean of 5, 7, 8, 10, 10 = (40 / 5) = 8
Answer: Mean = 8
Q10: Median of 3, 7, 9, 12, 13 -> Median = 9
Answer: Median = 9
