  1. Calculate the total selling price of the cars.

    Sam sold 6 cars, and each car was sold for sh 890 000.

    Total selling price=6×890000 sh\text{Total selling price} = 6 \times 890000 \text{ sh} Total selling price=5340000 sh\text{Total selling price} = 5340000 \text{ sh}
  2. Calculate the commission earned.

    The commission rate is 2% of the total selling price.

    Commission=2%×5340000 sh\text{Commission} = 2\% \times 5340000 \text{ sh} Commission=2100×5340000 sh\text{Commission} = \frac{2}{100} \times 5340000 \text{ sh} Commission=2×53400 sh\text{Commission} = 2 \times 53400 \text{ sh} Commission=106800 sh\text{Commission} = 106800 \text{ sh}

    The commission Sam earned that month was sh 106 800\boxed{\text{sh 106 800}}.

    A parallelogram has opposite angles equal and consecutive angles supplementary (add up to 180∘180^\circ).

  3. Determine the size of angle aa.

    Angle aa and the angle 110∘110^\circ are consecutive interior angles along the bottom side, or aa is opposite the 110∘110^\circ angle if we consider the top-left angle as 110∘110^\circ and bottom-right as aa.
    Looking at the diagram, the angle 110∘110^\circ is at the top-left vertex, and angle aa is at the bottom-right vertex. In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal.
    Therefore, a=110∘a = 110^\circ.
    Reason: Opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal.

  4. Determine the size of angle bb.

    Angle bb is at the top-right vertex. The angle 70∘70^\circ is at the bottom-left vertex. In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal.
    Therefore, b=70∘b = 70^\circ.
    Reason: Opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal.

    Alternatively, using consecutive angles:
    Angle aa and the 70∘70^\circ angle are consecutive angles.

    a+70∘=180∘a + 70^\circ = 180^\circ a=180∘−70∘=110∘a = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ

    Angle bb and the 110∘110^\circ angle are consecutive angles.

    b+110∘=180∘b + 110^\circ = 180^\circ b=180∘−110∘=70∘b = 180^\circ - 110^\circ = 70^\circ

    The sizes of the angles are:
    a=110∘a = \boxed{110^\circ} because opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal.
    b=70∘b = \boxed{70^\circ} because opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal.

    To construct triangle NPQ with PQ = 7 cm, NQ = 9 cm, and angle NPQ = 60∘60^\circ:

  5. Draw a line segment PQ.

    Using a ruler, draw a straight line segment PQ of length 7 cm.

  6. Construct angle NPQ = 60∘60^\circ at point P.

    • Place the compass needle at point P and draw an arc that intersects PQ. Let this intersection point be X.
    • Without changing the compass width, place the needle at X and draw another arc that intersects the first arc. Let this intersection point be Y.
    • Draw a ray from P through Y. This ray forms an angle of 60∘60^\circ with PQ.
  7. Locate point N.

    • Place the compass needle at point Q.
    • Open the compass to a radius of 9 cm (the length of NQ).
    • Draw an arc that intersects the ray drawn in Step 2. The intersection point is N.
  8. Complete the triangle.

    • Draw a straight line segment from N to Q.

    Triangle NPQ is now constructed.
