Most of those were quite easy. Except remembering what is sin of 30°, the rest is simple calculation.

The only one I struggled with was the derivation one, which I half-guessed, but correctly. Calculus is the only thing in this quiz that I haven't used regularly or at least on and off over the last 40-plus years.. Oh, the common multiples and factors as well, but that's just semantics+arithmetic, the only real issue there is understanding what the question means. The one with the graph just made me laugh, as I didn't used the formula, just looked at the values and used pythagoras.
