These PowerPoints form full lessons of work that together cover the new A level Maths course for all exam boards. Together all the PowerPoints include; • A complete set of notes for students • Model examples • Probing questions to test understanding • Class questions including answers • Individual whiteboard work • Links to exercises in ‘The Textbook by CGP’ these can easily be edited for your textbook The PowerPoints can be used in the lesson and also given to students that have missed a lesson I have added ‘AS level maths 13 – Circles’ for free download Vectors covers; Use vectors in two dimensions Calculate the magnitude and direction of a vector and convert between component form and magnitude/direction form Add vectors diagrammatically and perform the algebraic operations of vector addition and multiplication by scalars, and understand their geometrical interpretations Understand and use position vectors Calculate the distance between two points represented by position vectors Use vectors to solve problems in pure mathematics and in context, including forces

A matching activity for practice converting between the different forms of a vector in 2 dimensions (column vector, i,j components, magnitude and direction)

Examples of vectors in Mechanics

This is a Power Point on the Addition of Vectors which explains the process of Vector addition in a step by step way. We start with a very short video link as a plane lands in strong cross winds. The process of adding vectors is then explored using calculations and then scale diagrams for right angle triangles. Acute and obtuse angle triangles are then finally investigated. Lesson objectives are included.

Exercises on vectors with answers. Basic exercises in both 2D and 3D. Further exercises on Scalar Product and some exam level questions. Original Promethean flipchart exercises included.

This assignment developed from my intention to write some original questions for my Geometry and Trigonometry students, I found that the decisions process was much more instructive than the resulting questions. Hence I chose to set this task requiring the students to create a storyline themselves using Position and Velocity vectors. It also addresses literacy across the curriculum requirements.

In this PowerPoint, we explore the topic of “Vectors”. It consists of an initial section where we go over what was learned previously, during Pure Mathematics (A2 level). Afterwards, we explore additional features of the “Further Pure Mathematics course, such as the vector product between 2 vectors as well as the vector equation and the Cartesian equations of a plane. We also introduce extra formulas for the distance between a point and a line or a point and a plane or even between 2 skew lines, amongst other. As in previous similar resources, we include, not one but 2 sections of examples of solved exam style questions. The intention is emphasizing the relation between the algebraic and geometric techniques used for A2 – Pure Mathematics and the new set of formulae available in the course of Further Pure Mathematics. As before, these examples will explore: • Possible intersections between lines and planes • Angles between lines and planes • Distances between points, lines and planes In each example, we can find detailed explanations complemented with key diagrams and tips for similar cases. Hopefully, this resource can help students when revising for their examinations as well as teachers, who can use it a complement to their explanations in lessons.

This short lesson with examples is intended for the ‘AS,’ and the ‘A,’ level students. The lesson will assist the students to understand the concept of the perpendicular vectors and how to solve the relevant problems with ease and with confidence.

This idea was taken from the old Advancing Physics A-Level syllabus but works on a number of courses. Great demonstration when paired with an etch-a-sketch to get across vectors concept
