Q24 Explain the reasoningbull The Archbishop of Canterbury in the late 15th
century came up with a reasoning that enabled him to tax everyone rich and poor
bull Following the same reasoning in Agatha Christiersquos Death in the Clouds Poirot sets a trap for the murderer by asking him to dress in disguise as a blackmailer

A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)
Q30 What term bull This is a plot device in the form of some goal desired
object or other motivator that the protagonist pursues often with little or no narrative explanation
bull The specific nature of this is typically unimportant to the overall plot
bull The most common type is an object place or person other more abstract types include money victory glory survival power love or some unexplained driving force
bull The term was popularized by Hitchcock who defined it as the object around which the plot revolves but as to what the object itself is the audience doesnrsquot care
bull George Lucas on the other hand believed the audience should care and this should be powerful and suggested R2D2 as an example
Waiting for Answer Theme2 Image2
A30 MacGuffinHitchcock explained the term MacGuffin in a 1939 lecture at Columbia University
It might be a Scottish name taken from a story about two men on a train One man says Whats that package up there in the baggage rack And the other answers Oh thats a MacGuffin The first one asks Whats a MacGuffin Well the other man says its an apparatus for trapping lions in the Scottish Highlands The first man says But there are no lions in the Scottish Highlands and the other one answers Well then thats no MacGuffin So you see that a MacGuffin is actually nothing at all

A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)
Q30 What term bull This is a plot device in the form of some goal desired
object or other motivator that the protagonist pursues often with little or no narrative explanation

bull The most common type is an object place or person other more abstract types include money victory glory survival power love or some unexplained driving force
bull The term was popularized by Hitchcock who defined it as the object around which the plot revolves but as to what the object itself is the audience doesnrsquot care
bull George Lucas on the other hand believed the audience should care and this should be powerful and suggested R2D2 as an example

A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)

A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)
Q30 What term bull This is a plot device in the form of some goal desired
object or other motivator that the protagonist pursues often with little or no narrative explanation
bull The specific nature of this is typically unimportant to the overall plot
bull The most common type is an object place or person other more abstract types include money victory glory survival power love or some unexplained driving force
bull The term was popularized by Hitchcock who defined it as the object around which the plot revolves but as to what the object itself is the audience doesnrsquot care
bull George Lucas on the other hand believed the audience should care and this should be powerful and suggested R2D2 as an example
Waiting for Answer Theme2 Image2

A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)
Q30 What term bull This is a plot device in the form of some goal desired
object or other motivator that the protagonist pursues often with little or no narrative explanation
bull The specific nature of this is typically unimportant to the overall plot
bull The most common type is an object place or person other more abstract types include money victory glory survival power love or some unexplained driving force
bull The term was popularized by Hitchcock who defined it as the object around which the plot revolves but as to what the object itself is the audience doesnrsquot care
bull George Lucas on the other hand believed the audience should care and this should be powerful and suggested R2D2 as an example

A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)
Q30 What term bull This is a plot device in the form of some goal desired
object or other motivator that the protagonist pursues often with little or no narrative explanation
bull The specific nature of this is typically unimportant to the overall plot
bull The most common type is an object place or person other more abstract types include money victory glory survival power love or some unexplained driving force
bull The term was popularized by Hitchcock who defined it as the object around which the plot revolves but as to what the object itself is the audience doesnrsquot care
bull George Lucas on the other hand believed the audience should care and this should be powerful and suggested R2D2 as an example

A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)
Q30 What term bull This is a plot device in the form of some goal desired
object or other motivator that the protagonist pursues often with little or no narrative explanation
bull The specific nature of this is typically unimportant to the overall plot
bull The most common type is an object place or person other more abstract types include money victory glory survival power love or some unexplained driving force
bull The term was popularized by Hitchcock who defined it as the object around which the plot revolves but as to what the object itself is the audience doesnrsquot care
bull George Lucas on the other hand believed the audience should care and this should be powerful and suggested R2D2 as an example
Waiting for Answer Theme2 Image2
A30 MacGuffinHitchcock explained the term MacGuffin in a 1939 lecture at Columbia University
It might be a Scottish name taken from a story about two men on a train One man says Whats that package up there in the baggage rack And the other answers Oh thats a MacGuffin The first one asks Whats a MacGuffin Well the other man says its an apparatus for trapping lions in the Scottish Highlands The first man says But there are no lions in the Scottish Highlands and the other one answers Well then thats no MacGuffin So you see that a MacGuffin is actually nothing at all

The eponymous philosopherrsquos solution involved contradicting the principle of bivalence and implying a system of three-valued logic in which there are three truth values ndash true false and some indeterminate third value
Socrates wants to cross a river and comes to a bridge guarded by PlatoPlato Socrates if in the first proposition which you utter you speak the truth I will permit you to cross But surely if you speak falsely I shall throw you into the waterSocrates You will throw me into the water

A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)
Q30 What term bull This is a plot device in the form of some goal desired
object or other motivator that the protagonist pursues often with little or no narrative explanation
bull The specific nature of this is typically unimportant to the overall plot
bull The most common type is an object place or person other more abstract types include money victory glory survival power love or some unexplained driving force
bull The term was popularized by Hitchcock who defined it as the object around which the plot revolves but as to what the object itself is the audience doesnrsquot care
bull George Lucas on the other hand believed the audience should care and this should be powerful and suggested R2D2 as an example
Waiting for Answer Theme2 Image2
A30 MacGuffinHitchcock explained the term MacGuffin in a 1939 lecture at Columbia University
It might be a Scottish name taken from a story about two men on a train One man says Whats that package up there in the baggage rack And the other answers Oh thats a MacGuffin The first one asks Whats a MacGuffin Well the other man says its an apparatus for trapping lions in the Scottish Highlands The first man says But there are no lions in the Scottish Highlands and the other one answers Well then thats no MacGuffin So you see that a MacGuffin is actually nothing at all

Q32 Name the paradoxThis is a self-referenced paradox that involves a proposition about an event that may or may not happen in the future
The eponymous philosopherrsquos solution involved contradicting the principle of bivalence and implying a system of three-valued logic in which there are three truth values ndash true false and some indeterminate third value
Socrates wants to cross a river and comes to a bridge guarded by PlatoPlato Socrates if in the first proposition which you utter you speak the truth I will permit you to cross But surely if you speak falsely I shall throw you into the waterSocrates You will throw me into the water

Waiting for Answer Theme2 Image1
A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)
Q30 What term bull This is a plot device in the form of some goal desired
object or other motivator that the protagonist pursues often with little or no narrative explanation
bull The specific nature of this is typically unimportant to the overall plot
bull The most common type is an object place or person other more abstract types include money victory glory survival power love or some unexplained driving force
bull The term was popularized by Hitchcock who defined it as the object around which the plot revolves but as to what the object itself is the audience doesnrsquot care
bull George Lucas on the other hand believed the audience should care and this should be powerful and suggested R2D2 as an example
Waiting for Answer Theme2 Image2
A30 MacGuffinHitchcock explained the term MacGuffin in a 1939 lecture at Columbia University
It might be a Scottish name taken from a story about two men on a train One man says Whats that package up there in the baggage rack And the other answers Oh thats a MacGuffin The first one asks Whats a MacGuffin Well the other man says its an apparatus for trapping lions in the Scottish Highlands The first man says But there are no lions in the Scottish Highlands and the other one answers Well then thats no MacGuffin So you see that a MacGuffin is actually nothing at all
Q31 What did Apley Hall inspire
Waiting for Answer Theme2 Image3
A31 Blandings Castle Shropshire
Q32 Name the paradoxThis is a self-referenced paradox that involves a proposition about an event that may or may not happen in the future
The eponymous philosopherrsquos solution involved contradicting the principle of bivalence and implying a system of three-valued logic in which there are three truth values ndash true false and some indeterminate third value
Socrates wants to cross a river and comes to a bridge guarded by PlatoPlato Socrates if in the first proposition which you utter you speak the truth I will permit you to cross But surely if you speak falsely I shall throw you into the waterSocrates You will throw me into the water

Waiting for Answer Theme2 Image1
A29 Gauss Regular PolygonA breakthrough occurred in 1796 when 19 year old Gauss showed that a regular polygon can be constructed by compass and straightedge if and only if the number of sides is the product of distinct Fermat primes and a power of 2
The regular heptadecagon is a constructible polygon (that is one that can be constructed using a compass and unmarked straightedge)
Q30 What term bull This is a plot device in the form of some goal desired
object or other motivator that the protagonist pursues often with little or no narrative explanation
bull The specific nature of this is typically unimportant to the overall plot
bull The most common type is an object place or person other more abstract types include money victory glory survival power love or some unexplained driving force
bull The term was popularized by Hitchcock who defined it as the object around which the plot revolves but as to what the object itself is the audience doesnrsquot care
bull George Lucas on the other hand believed the audience should care and this should be powerful and suggested R2D2 as an example
Waiting for Answer Theme2 Image2
A30 MacGuffinHitchcock explained the term MacGuffin in a 1939 lecture at Columbia University
It might be a Scottish name taken from a story about two men on a train One man says Whats that package up there in the baggage rack And the other answers Oh thats a MacGuffin The first one asks Whats a MacGuffin Well the other man says its an apparatus for trapping lions in the Scottish Highlands The first man says But there are no lions in the Scottish Highlands and the other one answers Well then thats no MacGuffin So you see that a MacGuffin is actually nothing at all

Q32 Name the paradoxThis is a self-referenced paradox that involves a proposition about an event that may or may not happen in the future
The eponymous philosopherrsquos solution involved contradicting the principle of bivalence and implying a system of three-valued logic in which there are three truth values ndash true false and some indeterminate third value
Socrates wants to cross a river and comes to a bridge guarded by PlatoPlato Socrates if in the first proposition which you utter you speak the truth I will permit you to cross But surely if you speak falsely I shall throw you into the waterSocrates You will throw me into the water
