Overview
'Discovering Advanced Mathematics' is a series of four books designed to match the new generation of A- and AS-level maths syllabuses and satisfy the requirements of the SCAA Common Core for Mathematics. The books provide unparalleled support for developing modelling and problem-solving skills._ real opportunities to study advanced mathematics through stimulating and original contexts, questions and modelling tasks_ use of new technology is encouraged throughout _ graphics calculators and spreadsheets, for example _ but tasks are accessible to students with the most basic of A-level calculators_ accessible to all of your students because of careful introduction of major concepts and language level'Pure Mathematics' _ Bob FrancisA continual emphasis on application and relevance: wage rises to yacht racing; fairground rides to mortgage repayments. pure mathematics shows the immediate application of pure mathematics that students are learning, and makes great use of modelling techniques throughout. The text is divided into 29 short chapters, allowing teachers to match the book easily to their own teaching plans."Although the title is 'Pure Mathematics', the book also covers the requirements for students to study mathematical modelling, the mathematics of uncertainty, and the appropriate use of technology_This is an interesting book, offering many imaginative ideas, providing structure and support for all students, and challenge for the most able."TIMES EDUCATIONAL SUPPLEMENT.Content Summary_ Problem-solving in mathematics_ Basic algebra_ Linear functions_ Quadratic functions_ Quadratic equations and inequalities_ Polynomial functions_ Differentiation 1 (gradients etc.)_ Trigonometry 1 (functions etc.)_ Integration 1 (areas, area functions)_ Trigonometry 2 (triangles)_ Sequences and series 1 (notation etc.)_ Indices_ Functions_ Sequences and series 2 (binomial expansions)_ Trigonometry 3 (radians etc.)_ Logarithms_ Exponentials and logarithms_ Differentiation 2 (negative exponents, tangents, etc.)_ Integration 2 (negative exponents etc.)_ Differentiation 3 (chain rule etc.)_ Numerical methods_ Rational functions_ Integration 3_ Curves 1 (parametric equations)_ Trigonometry 5 (calculus) Curves 2_ Differential equations_ Mathematics of uncertaintyA Vectors supplement is available upon request.
