Algebraic Sequences and series

(6)
Aimed at stronger pupils on GCSE/IGCSE and pupils starting year 12. Probably enough content for 2 lessons. covers arithmetic means, nth terms, recursive and explicit terms Also delves into sum of an arithmetic series (without referring to sigma, I intend to bring that in after geometric series have been done) all answers are provided hope you enjoy , please leave feedback for more of my resources check out the shop /teaching-resources/shop/commuter (have amended an error on this and added an extra discussion point)

Line Segments- The length of the line between 2 coordinates

(0)
Full powerpoints provided with discussion tasks, worked example, built in questions with answers and follow up group activities. There are 2 different powerpoints provided depending on if you want to use the treasure hunt or the matching activity as your group task. The treasure hunt and matching activity accompany the respective powerpoint. Question banks in the powerpoint have been split into coordinates in 1 quadrant and coordinates in all 4 quadrants. Answers given to all questions. Leaving answers as surds rather than decimals where appropriate. Hope you enjoy please leave feedback

Factor theorem 2 - fully factorising polynomials

(1)
Second part of Factor Theorem for my IGCSE Further pure maths, although easily adaptable for IB and A Level, this time on using the factor theorem when we have not been given any factor, before fully factorising by factorising a quadratic. Starter task reminds of using the factor theorem to show if (x-a) is a factor full examples given and follow up questions as well as evaluation tasks involving peer assessment. hope you enjoy, please leave feedback (next time I will do remainder theorem)
