For question 4, was the argand diagram given in cartesian co-ordinates or polar co-ordinates and how did it look? (trying to recreate it for the solutions)

right so they wanted points labelled, methinks not polar vectors :P

do you remember at all what the unit divisions were between the circles? e.g. intersecting axis at 1, 2, 3, so on
