Numeracy Intermediate November 2023 Unit 2 Q5
5. Treviso is a company that designs and builds bicycles.
Treviso has designed this new bike frame.
The missing angles need to be calculated.

Diagram not drawn to scale
Find the size of each of the angles \(a\), \(b\) and \(c\). [3]
\(a\) = …………… ° \(b\) = …………… ° \(c\) = …………… °
Each wheel on Treviso’s new bike has a diameter of 29 inches.
Remember: 1 foot = 12 inches
Ollie tests Treviso’s new bike over a distance of 1000 feet.
How many times will a wheel rotate during the test? [4]
Remember: 12 inches ≈ 30 cm
What is the diameter of each wheel in millimetres? [3]
Diameter is …………… mm
He completes the race in a time of 1 hour 30 minutes.
