Homework 2-1 on Polynomials was due in on Tuesday 5th November and the majority of the class had some problems with one question in particular which was covered in an earlier exercise, so I explained where the mistake was made.
We finished Chapter 7 – Polynomials. The notes on this topic were finalized, and the mixed exercise 7K was given for individuals to complete at home.
Then we started Chapter 12 – Circles and the notes and exercises need to have been completed up to Ex12J by next Tuesday 12th November. Much of this is fairly straightforward albeit mostly algebraic manipulation and being able to factorise expressions. We got onto intersection of straight lines and circles. We had a brief reminder of some of the circle facts that everyone should remember from Standard Grade and is on the MyMaths website under Library – A Level – Core 1 – Graphs – Circle Geometry & Core 2 – Equations of Circles.
The class were issued with homework 2-8 a mixed homework and this is due in on Thursday 14th November.
