Why geometric progressions are better than arithmetic progressions: []



Remember: Math is Fun!

Let a=4i+8j; b=2i-5j; and c=5j: 1) a+b= 2) b+c= 3) c+a= 4) a-b= 5) b-a= 6) c-a= 7) 3a= 8) -2b= 9) 5c= 10) 5c-3a=

Homework - Tuesdays & Thursdays: November 7 - [|Venn Diagrams] November 3 - Roll 2 Dice 1,000,000 times (electronically) and tally the 2's on the 1st die, the 2's on the 2nd die, and the number of times two 2's happened. November 1, 2011: 6A10abc; 6B1,7; 6C1 in the book October 13, 2011: Homework is on Mathletics We finished the transformations packet. If you didn't finish it in class, please use it for study material. Exam on Thursday. Homework is due then (no class on Tuesday). I would do more than the required amount. There is a lot to review before the exam. Please do revision in Mathletics and in your book if you have additional time.

Unit 1 - Learning Objectives Factorise quadratic expressions Solve quadratic equations of the form* ax2 + bx + c = 0 by: - Factorisation - Graphical Methods - Completing the square - The Formula (*Note – it may be necessary to manipulate a given equation to fit this form) Solve “real-life” problems described by quadratic equations Appreciate the effect of the discriminant in determining if a quadratic has real roots Understand that parabolas have a line of symmetry x = -b/2a Use the completing the square method to locate vertices of parabolas Understand that some of the methods above can also be used to solve higher order polynomials Factorise the sum and difference of two cubes Understand the general features of a cubic graph, and link this to information about the roots of a cubic Solve factorisable cubics using algebraic long division Reflect a shape in a (horizontal or vertical) line Reflect a shape in any line Reflect a shape in multiple lines Appreciate the concept of line symmetry Rotate a shape about any point using angle and centre of rotation (and find centres of rotation) Appreciate the concept of rotational symmetry Translate a shape with the vector Be able to tessellate a shape Stretch a shape horizontally or vertically Enlarge a shape by a given scale factor about a given centre of enlargement (and find centres of enlargement) Shear a shape, with a given shear factor Understand that the following represent transformations of the graph of y = f(x) Be able to reflect a graph of a function in the line x=a
 * y = f(x-h) * y = f(x)+k
 * y = af(x) * y = f(x/b)
 * y = f(-x) * y = -f(x)
