This resource is designed to introduce the method for finding the volume of a shape created when an area is rotated around an axis. The first side explains the derivation of the formulae - I would recommend you also try to show your students an animation that helps them visualise a 3D shape being created by a region rotating about an axis (lots are freely available online). There are then 5 pages of questions for your students to complete. Most of the questions are in two parts - the first part involves finding an area, the second part involves finding a volume (a very common style of question in examination papers). Note that students are expected to be able to integrate using ln, e and reverse chain rule. Answers to all questions are provided.

The first resource guides your students through the whole process of using the Simplex algorithm to solve a linear programming problem. The first page explains how the initial tableau is formed, how the objective function must be written and how the inequalities that represent constraints must be written as equations with the introduction of slack variables. The first exercise (11 questions) gives them the opportunity to practise writing the initial tableau correctly for different problems. Grids are provided so students focus their time and energy on only the values in the tableau. The next section describes how an iteration of the algorithm is performed and links the iterations to the graphical solution, showing how each iteration moves to a different vertex of the feasible region. There is then another exercise with 10 questions for students to practise performing iterations and finding the optimal solution. Again, grids are provided so students focus their time and energy on only the steps of the algorithm and the values in the tableau. Fully worked solutions are provided to all the questions in the exercises. The second resource is a spreadsheet that automatically solves any simplex tableau in 2/3 variables with 2/3 constraints - a useful resource for doing/checking solutions to other questions from a textbook or examination paper.

This resource is designed to introduce the method of finding dx/dy and using this to work out the gradient of a curve. There are 3 examples to work through as a class - these will show that to differentiate a curve in some cases it is necessary to have the equation of the curve in the form x=f(y). There is then a short note to summarise the method and then 3 pages of examination-style questions for students to practise. Answers are included.

This worksheet can be used to teach/practise the required knowledge and skills expected at A level for the intersections of graphs.

The final section shows how the discriminant can be used to determine/show the number of points of intersection, with examples to illustrate the method. Fully worked solutions to all examples are provided.

This worksheet can be used to teach/practise the required knowledge and skills expected at A level for the topic of proportion.

Fully worked solutions to all questions are provided.

The worksheet is a 20-page resource that covers everything your students need to know about straight lines and circles for the new A level. Each section has an introduction with the required knowledge or formulae, then there is an exercise full of questions for you to work through with your class or for them to do on their own (answers are provided). The questions in the exercises start with the basics and progress up to more demanding examination-style questions. In total there are over 100 questions for your students to work through and there is enough material here to fill several lessons. The different sections cover: distance between 2 points, midpoints, gradient of a line, equation of a line, parallel and perpendicular lines, equation of a circle, tangents/normals to a circle, intersections of lines and circles, and determining whether 2 circles intersect, are disjoint or tangent to each other. The assessment contains 12 questions covering all aspects of straight lines and circles, which could be used as either a homework or a test. Fully worked solutions are provided.

The first resource guides your class through the process of using the real and complex roots of z^n+k=0 to write down its real factors. The introduction includes the important result about the sum of conjugates and then uses equations of the form z^n=1 or z^n=-1 to establish that there is always an even number of complex roots, which can be put into conjugate pairs. It is then shown how each conjugate pair of roots produces a real quadratic factor, while each real root produces a real linear factor. To practise all this there is an exercise with 7 questions for students to complete. Solutions to all the examples and the exercise are included. The second resource contains an exercise with further examination-style questions on this topic. This could be used as additional practice in class or as a homework/test. Answers are provided.
