In paper 2... the locus thing
I drew two angle bisectors... one horizontal and the other vertical.
The parallel lines are wrong!

okk.,
your a)i) answers are correct...By the way...r=6/8...=3/4 (lowest terms, always)
  a)ii) is correct but a)iii) ...the answer is 2/3

a)iii) A white ball can pop up from bag A OR bag b
   the probability of white ball from bag A is (2/3 * 5/8)
   the probability of white ball from Bag B is (1/3*3/4)
soo u add them up because its OR....i.e (2/3*5/8)+(1/3*3/4)...= 5/12 + 1/4 = 2/3
 :) :) hope u understood

in paper 2 locii question, the answer is two/four angle bisectors, one on top, on left, right, down... or just one vertical and one horizontal. i am 100% sure of this.... i did it wrong though, i made only one line...

the question:
draw the locii for all points equidistant from line AC and line BD (whatever the letter were) inside the quadrilateral ABCD.

the drawing was something like this: (ascii art, i suck at it...)
A\------------ B
   \             /
    \           /                 there were already lines between A and C, and between B and D, just its too hard to draw them
     \         /                                 on this diagram, because there are only a few different symbols for slants, none work... (/\)
   D \------ C
