ok ill just try remember questions. learn about sectors how to find and area sector nd perimeter of 2 sectors. 1st question is the hardest :P. 2nd 1 is explained bad. 3rd 1 use calculator, quite confusing. u need linear program for last question.then the classic speed graph, where u gota find distance travelled and acceleration.and simultaneous equations and make X the subject. thats bout it. easy paper really i reckon ill get 66/70.:D

1) They will give you a figure and ask for the order of rotational symmetry and some other order.
The first answer is 4 and the second one is 0

2)They ask you to find the order of a matrix. It is 4 x 3

3)Revise indirect variation, quadratic expressions, rounding off, linear programming.

There are no bearings or statistics

what is linear programming?!
Title: Re: IGCSE Maths Paper2 (Extended) Nov 5th
Post by: astarmathsandphysics on November 05, 2008, 07:17:29 am
It is linke simultaneous equations but with inequalities eg

2x+3y<4
4x+y<7

Solve them like simultaneous equations the for example in this case
5y<1 so y<1/5
2x+3*1/5<4 so x<17/10

Know how to do Algebraic fractions

Know how to do Simultaneous Equations

Know how to do Linear programming

Know how to do Graphs (create, get the gradient(to find acceleration, find area under the graph[to get distance in a speed-time graph])

Know how to do Functions

Indices

Standard form

Area and circumference of circle

Inverse proportionality

Inequlities(solving- including inequalities with negative numbers)

Vectors

There was a question on symmetry and order of rotational symmetry






















I am a human and humans make mistakes, so study everything for your own good. Good Luck..

I aced it (i think) By the way- cie board and paper 21

I got order of rotation 2 and lines of symmetry 0. And for question 2, I got 3x4...........Travis, are you sure about your answer?

yo xyga wat physics paper did u do?


Paper 22..
The matrix question is 4 x 3
Go over fraction/algebra
There is a construction question too
The Paper was pretty easy, though harder than the Past Papers
