Mathematics Mastery

Summary

This geometry unit focuses fully on developing mastery of this important area of mathematics. At the start of the unit, students consider similar shapes and the impact of similarity on the ratio of side lengths. With carefully chosen illustrations to illuminate the learning, the unit introduces the trigonometric ratios and develops these into the more formal methods of use when finding missing sides or angles in right-angled triangles. The trigonometric ratios for special triangles are devised and applied, and the angles of elevation and depression met and used in context to solve trigonometry problems and reasoning challenges.

What people say...

The units we have ordered are proving really useful and helpful with development of materials for new specs.  The Maths for D&T have been particularly helpful.
