This worksheet focuses on the skill of being able to find the point of intersection of the perpendicular from a point to a line. It includes related questions such as the perpendicular distance from a point to a line and the coordinates of the reflection of a point in a line. Some of the lines are given in vector form and some are in cartesian form, so students need to be confident with both. There are 16 questions in total, all answers are provided.

These resources will give your class plenty of practice of using the factor theorem and the common questions that follow finding a factor of a cubic polynomial. The first resource focuses on showing that (ax+b) is a factor of f(x) and then using it to write f(x) as a product of a linear and quadratic factor. There is an example to work through as a group and then an exercise with 14 questions - answers are provided. The second resource has 2 sections. The first section focuses on factorising cubics fully, either as a product of a linear and quadratic factor, or as a product of 3 linear factors. The second section focuses on solving f(x)=0 and, in later questions, relates the solutions to the graph of f(x). In total there are 26 questions - answers are provided.

This 16-page worksheet contains 50 questions. In each question the student is given the perimeter/area/volume of the shape and must use this to work out one of the lengths of the shape. There is a mixture of calculator and non-calculator questions, which are clearly indicated. All answers are included.

These resources are on averages from a list of data. They contain some questions that involve calculating an average but focus on finding a missing value in the list (given the mean/mode/median) or on creating a list of numbers that match some given criteria. The first 2 resources go together as class activity to practise finding an unknown value in a list of data given its mean/mode/median. The first worksheet follows on from this activity and gives students the opportunity to practise this type of question. The final worksheet practises creating a list of numbers that match some given criteria. In the first section there are examples to complete as a class then there is an exercise for students to complete on their own. (note that answers are not included as there is not a unique solution to each question)

This activity uses a spreadsheet to generate random questions on averages for students to attempt to try to score points. There are 10 different levels of difficulty of the questions (level 1 questions earn 1 point, level 10 questions earn 10 points). Each student/team should open up the spreadsheet and just follow the instructions, trying to earn as many points as possible in the time you give them. This is a great activity as there is differentiation in the questions, the questions are all different for each student/group, and the spreadsheet does all the marking!

Powerpoint presentation designed to review the methods and formulae required to solve arranging and choosing problems. Useful to review the methods before setting an exercise or for revision of the topic. Suitable for the new GCSE maths syllabus.

I found it time-consuming tryingto teach my classes how to resolve forces by drawing diagrams on the board and asking them to copy them down - it seemed to take ages and they didn't get to work through that many examples themselves. So I created this worksheet with ready-made diagrams with all the forces and a blank copy of diagram for students to add on the resolved forces. I no longer dread teaching this skill and my classes get a lot more done in the lesson time. The worksheet starts with an introductory explanation and a worked example. There are then over 20 questions for students to attempt. Fully worked solutions are included.

This 11-page resource covers all the required knowledge and techniques for determining if curves are convex/concave and finding points of inflection, as required for the new A level. In each section it contains notes, explanations and examples to work through with your class followed by an exercise of questions for students to attempt themselves (answers included). The sections/topics are: 1.Convex and concave curves (a) determine from a sketch if curve is convex, concave or neither (b) find the values of x for which a graph is convex (or concave) © show algebraically that a function is convex (or concave) 2.Points of inflection (a) find the point(s) of inflection on a graph (b) determine whether a point of inflection is stationary or non-stationary © show that a curve has no points of inflection (d) use point(s) of inflection to determine the values of x for which a curve is convex (or concave) This projectable and printable resource will save you having to create or write out any notes/examples when teaching the topic, and will make things easier for your students as they can just work directly on the given spaces provided for solutions. Answers to all exercises are included. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186

This worksheet covers how to solve single and double-sided inequalities and includes representing the solution on a number line as well as considering examples where integer solutions are required. The introduction covers what the solution to a linear inequality should look like and, by means of a few examples, explores the similarities and differences between solving equations and inequalities. The first exercise (52 Qs) then gives students practice solving inequalties of the form ax+b>c, x/a+b The second section focuses on double-sided inequalities such as 3 The final section is designed to help students consider the integer solutions to an inequality. In the examples students need to find the smallest possible integer value of n if n>p, the largest possible integer value of n if n Answers to all the exercises are provided, including the solutions on number lines. Also included is a homework/test with fully worked solutions.

The powerpoint presentation can be used to introduce this topic, containing examples and explanations. The notes and examples sheet can just be handed out as a reminder during the tasks, or later as a revision resource. The first activity just requires the students to indicate on a grid whether each item is an equation, expression, identity or formula. The second activity involves cutting out each item and putting/sticking it into the correct column on the answer table. All answers are included.

This 24-page worksheet has almost 80 questions on the topic of finding the area and perimeter of circles and sectors. There is a mixture of non-calculator and calculator questions, which are clearly indicated. All answers are provided at the end of the worksheet.

This worksheet makes it easy to introduce and teach the trapezium rule to your classes. The first page has diagrams to illustrate the method and the derivation of the formula is broken down into steps for you to work through with your class. Projecting all this is so much easier than drawing it out by hand. The trapezium rule formula is then stated at the top of page 2, followed by 3 pages of examples of examination-style questions that test the use of the formula and your students’ understanding (is the answer from the trapezium rule an underestimate or overestimate, can they use their answer to deduce an estimate for a related integral, etc). Answers to all the examples are provided. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186

This resource covers all the required knowledge and skills for the A2 topic of combined graph transformations. It begins by reviewing the individual transformations and their effects on the graph or its equation. The first section focuses on finding the equation of the curve resulting from 2 transformations - there are some examples to complete with your class and then an exercise for them to do independently. The exercise does include some questions requiring a sketch of the original and the transformed curve. Within that exercise there are questions designed to help them realise when the order of the transformations is important. The second section focuses on examples where the transformations must be applied in the correct order. There are examples to complete and then an exercise for students to attempt themselves. The exercise includes questions where the resulting equation must be found, where the required transformations but be described, and some graph sketching. Answers to all the questions in the exercises are included.

Teaching a class about the shape of trigonometric graphs and using them to learn rules that can be used to solve trigonometric equations can be difficult using a textbook or drawing on a whiteboard - I find it much easier with these printable worksheets with ready-drawn grids and graphs. The first worksheet gets students to work out and plot values of the sine function between 0 and 360 degrees so see the shape of the curve. There are then a number of examples using the sine graph to find angles with equivalent values using sine (e.g. sin 30 = sin 150). The worksheet finishes with some equations to solve, of the form sinx = a, where the students should use the rule(s) they have learned to find all the solutions. The next two worksheets follow the same format as the first, but now for the cosine and tangent functions. The last document practises working with all 3 graphs/functions so it can be used as a summary activity or assessment.
