Explanation:

Analyze questions 2 through 4

  • Question 2: Find the rule relating \(\Delta\) and \(\blacklozenge\).

Given pairs \((\Delta, \blacklozenge)\): \((2, 7)\), \((3, 16)\), \((5, 34)\), \((8, 61)\).
Test option D: \(\blacklozenge = 2 \times \Delta \times \Delta - 1\).
For \(\Delta = 2\): \(2(2)^2 - 1 = 7\).
For \(\Delta = 3\): \(2(3)^2 - 1 = 17
eq 16\).
Test option C: \(\blacklozenge = \Delta \times \Delta + 3\).
For \(\Delta = 3\): \(3^2 + 3 = 12
eq 16\).
Test option B: \(\blacklozenge = 9 \times \Delta - 11\).
For \(\Delta = 2\): \(9(2) - 11 = 7\).
For \(\Delta = 3\): \(9(3) - 11 = 16\).
For \(\Delta = 5\): \(9(5) - 11 = 34\).
For \(\Delta = 8\): \(9(8) - 11 = 61\).
Thus, B is correct.

  • Question 3: Right-angled triangle.

Two points are plotted at \((1, 2)\) and \((4, 4)\).
To form a right-angled triangle, the third point must form a right angle with the segment connecting \((1, 2)\) and \((4, 4)\).
If the right angle is at the third point \(P(x, y)\) with horizontal and vertical sides:
Option A: \((4, 2)\) forms a right triangle with vertices \((1, 2)\), \((4, 4)\), and \((4, 2)\) (right angle at \((4, 2)\)).
Option D: \((1, 4)\) forms a right triangle with vertices \((1, 2)\), \((4, 4)\), and \((1, 4)\) (right angle at \((1, 4)\)).
Thus, A and D are correct.

  • Question 4: Rule: Multiply by 8, then add 3.

\(a_1 = 11\)
\(a_2 = 11 \times 8 + 3 = 91\)
\(a_3 = 91 \times 8 + 3 = 731\)
\(a_4 = 731 \times 8 + 3 = 5851\)
\(a_5 = 5851 \times 8 + 3 = 46811\)

Analyze questions 5 through 8

  • Question 5: Pattern of pentagons: \(5, 8, 11, \dots\)

Rule: \(P(n) = 3n + 2\).
For \(n = 7\): \(3(7) + 2 = 23\).

  • Question 6: Find \(n\) when \(P(n) = 60\).

\(3n + 2 = 60 \implies 3n = 58 \implies n = 19.33\).
Since \(n\) must be an integer, the maximum number of complete pentagons is 19.

  • Question 7: Pattern: \(1, 2, 5, 26, 677, \dots\)

Rule: \(a_{n} = a_{n-1}^2 + 1\).
Next term: \(677^2 + 1 = 458329 + 1 = 458330\).

  • Question 8: Pattern of matches for squares.

For \(n = 3\), matches = 8.
Test option B: Multiply by itself and subtract 1: \(3^2 - 1 = 8\).
Test option C: Add 5: \(3 + 5 = 8\).
Test option D: Multiply by 4 and subtract 5: \(3 \times 4 - 5 = 7
eq 8\).
Thus, B and C are correct.

Analyze questions 9 through 12

  • Question 9: Fibonacci sequence: \(1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, \dots\)

First number greater than 100 is 144.

  • Question 10: Formula: \(C = (F - 32) / 1.8\).

For \(F = 410\): \(C = (410 - 32) / 1.8 = 378 / 1.8 = 210\).

  • Question 11: Triangular numbers: \(1, 3, 6, 10, 15, \dots\)

Formula: \(S_n = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}\).
We want \(S_n = 66\):
\(\frac{n(n+1)}{2} = 66 \implies n(n+1) = 132 \implies n^2 + n - 132 = 0 \implies (n-11)(n+12) = 0 \implies n = 11\).

  • Question 12: First two numbers: 8 and 55.

Rule: \(a_n = a_{n-1}^2 \pm C\).
Let's find \(C\): \(55 = 8^2 - C \implies 55 = 64 - C \implies C = 9\).
So the rule is \(a_n = a_{n-1}^2 - 9\).
Third number: \(55^2 - 9 = 3025 - 9 = 3016\).…
