New Topic: The Circle

By the end of this topic you will:

• know that the equation of the circle centre (a,b) and radius r is (x – a)² + (y – b)² = r²

• know that x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 represents a circle centre (–g, –f) and
radius r = √(g² + f² – c), provided g² + f² – c > 0

• be able to determine the equation of a circle

• be able to solve problems with the intersection of a line and a circle,
and a tangent to a circle

• be able to determine whether two circles touch each other

 

Homework: Circles Set2

Due: Monday 7th December

ALL pupils should be able to complete Q1 – 4

MOST pupils should be able to complete Q7

SOME pupils should be able to complete Q6

Translating Functions

Posted on Tuesday 8 September, 2015 by Mr H

Desmos Calculator Activity

Explore the effects of changing the vales of a, b, c and d individually.

Discuss and agree the translations:

y = f(x + a)

y = f(x) + b

y = cf(x)

y = f(dx)

Compound Angle Formulae

Posted on Monday 1 December, 2014 by Mr H

trigonometry2

New Topic: Compound Angle Formulae, MiA Unit 2 Ch3

By the end of this topic you will be able to:

• know and apply the addition formulae:
sin(A+B) = sinAcosB + cosAsinB
sin(A–B)  = sinAcosB – cosAsinB
cos(A+B) = cosAcosB – sinAsinB
cos(A–B) = cosAcosB + sinAsinB

• know and apply the double angle formulae:
sin2A  = 2sinAcosA
cos2A = cos2A – sin2A = 2cos2A – 1

• apply trigonometric formulae in solution of geometric problems

• solve trigonometric equations using compound angle formulae
