The high-performance questions are mostly familiar types that have appeared in previous exam questions (such as composite extrema, area of ​​a plane figure,…).

In addition, the test appeared a new question form related to the tangent of the sphere (verse 49) and was highly categorical. To solve this question, students need to incorporate a lot of knowledge about Oxyz geometry such as the relative positions of points and spheres, of planes and spheres; how to calculate distance…
