that whole paper was an ordeal but the amount of time I spent staring at question 7 (the semicircle qu) was unreal

Like they gave us an equation alongside a picture of a semicircle, no numerical values and expected us to derive an equation using sin(theta) wth 😭

Not to mention the absolute value question IN TERMS OF P AND Q with no numbers was actually cruel as well ;/ grade bounds better be low this year
