Key to mark types and abbreviations
M Method marks are awarded for a correct method which could lead to a correct answer.
A Accuracy marks are awarded when following on from a correct method. It is not necessary to always see the method. This can be implied.
B Marks awarded independent of method.
ft Follow through marks. Marks awarded for correct working following a mistake in an earlier step.
SC Special case. Marks awarded for a common misinterpretation which has some mathematical worth.
M dep A method mark dependent on a previous method mark being awarded.
B dep A mark that can only be awarded if a previous independent mark has been awarded.
oe Or equivalent. Accept answers that are equivalent.
eg accept 0.5 as well as 21
[a, b] Accept values between a and b inclusive.
[a, b) Accept values a ⩽ value < b
3.14 … Accept answers which begin 3.14 eg 3.14, 3.142, 3.
Use of brackets It is not necessary to see the bracketed work to award the marks.

Alternative method 1
A pair of arcs, centre Y , equal radius
or a single arc, centre Y , intersecting YX and YZ
oe eg a single arc, centre Y , radius YX intersecting YZ
Two intersecting arcs, equal radius
intersections on YX and YZ
M1dep
if a single arc, centre Y , radius YX intersecting YZ has been drawn the centres will be at X and the intersection on YZ
Fully correct method of construction of angle bisector and P marked 6 cm from Y in a position where YP bisects the angle XYZ
Alternative method 2
A pair of arcs, centre Y , equal radius
or a single arc, centre Y , intersecting YX and YZ
oe eg a single arc, centre Y , radius YX intersecting YZ
Two further arcs, centre Y , equal
YZ or a further single arc, centre Y , intersecting YX and YZ and two lines from the YX intersection of one arc to the YZ intersection of the other arc
M1dep
if a single arc, centre Y , radius YX , intersecting YZ has been drawn, one line will join X to the intersection on YZ
Fully correct method of construction of angle bisector and P marked 6 cm from Y in a position where YP bisects the angle XYZ

Additional Guidance
The angle bisector need not be drawn
Ignore incorrect arc(s)
Condone P not labelled if clearly indicated eg by a cross or dot
If P is not labelled or clearly indicated by a cross or dot, take the end of the angle bisector as the position of P
The angle bisector need not pass through the intersection of the second pair of arcs but must do so if it were extended
Accept an arc touching YX and/or YZ
No arc, centre Y , seen on YZ M
