Lesson explores definitions and representations of input-output machines. Explores why multiple inputs and outputs are needed to find the rule being used by a machine. Exploration of how to find which rule is being used by exploring the effects of multiplying or dividing consecutive inputs. Worked examples and questions. All answers included.
Lesson uses alternate angles and angles on a straight line to explain why angles in a triangle up to 180 degrees.
Worked examples and questions on finding missing angles. Extends to include isosceles triangles, then exterior angles and opposite angles. All answers included.
Lesson exploring the use of letters with function machines to describe a relationship. Reviews two-step function machines to find outputs and then introduces the ideas of using letters as the inputs. Looks at what the expression looks like if the output is a letter or if both are letters. Worked examples, questions and all answers included.
