This week we continued with the Relationships Unit<\/i> <\/b>with work on Angles<\/i>. We did work on angles in a circle in relation to the radius and the tangent to a circle.<\/i> This is under Library \u2013 Shape \u2013 Circle Theorems \u2013 Circle Theorems \u2013 page 7.<\/p>\n
\u00a0Next we did some work recapping the topic done in S3 on Trigonometry<\/i> with calculating a missing side<\/i> or finding the angle<\/i> in a right angled triangle. The class were reminded of the nonsense mnemonic word SOHCAHTOA<\/i> to enable them to decide which is the correct trigonometric ratio to apply. This was followed by using Pythagoras & Trigonometry in circles<\/i>, thus tying a number of topics together in terms of reasoning questions.<\/p>\n
\u00a0Having tied all these together, we just had the last topic Scattergraphs<\/i> to cover which next week will tie in with the work previously covered on Straight Line<\/i> to discover the line of best fit in a scattergraph<\/i>. Again more of the reasoning style of question. This is under Library \u2013 Data \u2013 Presenting Data \u2013 Scatter Graphs.<\/p>\n
\u00a0The class were again reminded that the Unit Test on the Relationships Unit<\/i><\/b> will be the week beginning the 2nd December. The pupils should refer to the summary of the topics in each Unit of Mathematics \u2013 National 4 to ensure they are clear on what will be in the test. Next week we will do two practice assessments to prepare the pupils for what will be in the test.<\/p>\n
