Pirate Trigonometry (NOW WITH SOLUTIONS)

(52)
An end-of-unit quiz on trigonometry (with some pythagoras and other geometry thrown in) for GCSE classes. I originally made this as a presentation on Google Docs. A link to the original and the .pdf version are both shared below. EDIT --------- Now added are worked solutions to all problems. Hope this is helpful. EDIT --------- Now *corrected* solutions - Thank you @lewisbennet101

Can issue sheets one-by-one to students to first categorise and then solve. Each triangle has one correct and one incorrect 'working&' card and one correct answer to the missing side.

Best Buys - Double Conversions

(2)
<p>I wrote these for my year 11 class after coming across a particularly horrible question in an EdExcel GCSE Practice Paper.</p> <p>The problems require students to do (at least) two conversions.</p> <p>Some correct numbers for predicted strategies are given, but there are lots of possible approaches.</p> <p>Beware - these questions are <strong>hard</strong>!</p>

<p>Three images to pop into a IWB presentation.<br /> I suggest using like this:<br /> Use large IWB version to demonstrate examples, eg. add numbers to the scales and ask students to help find missing value, perhaps on mini-whiteboards. (See questions for examples of how to vary the questions). Then get students to practice using the six similar questions; answers provided.<br /> Could require students to set up equations using notation before solving, or just to find the missing value using affine reasoning.</p>
