Trigonometry (1)

This booklet contains a selection of questions covering a range of topics for the reformed GCSE Mathematics (9-1) syllabus. For the majority of these questions, students are required to interpret the context and use their reasoning and problem solving skills. The 54 questions in this booklet can be used by both teachers, to show examples of examination style questions in class, and students, for independent revision at home. The answers are particularly useful if students are not secure in certain topics as they show full step-by-step workings. The worked answers also show students how to communicate their reasoning and calculations. Calculators are allowed for the questions in this booklet.
Topics covered in this booklet are: Pythagoras’ Theorem, finding the distance between two points, trigonometry in right-angled triangles, angles of elevation, bearings and identifying and applying trigonometry and Pythagoras’ Theorem in 2D and 3D.
