This resource contains twelve problems requiring students to explore the properties of the functions of sine, cosine and tangent. Students explain which is the odd one out, state which functions can be represented by which graph, devise questions which give a certain set of solutions and state whether statements...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of trigonometry, often used in the field of engineering. They include the trigonometric ratios, using Pythagoras’ theorem and working with the sine and cosine rules.

Comprehensive notes, with clear descriptions, for each resource are provided, together...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of trigonometry and are suitable for students studying mathematics at A Level, as well as those students for whom mathematics is an integral part of their course. Some of the topics covered include the trigonometric ratios, using Pythagoras’ theorem, cosecant,...

This RISP activity gives students four properties - one side is 3cm, one angle is 90 degrees, one side is 4cm and one angle is thirty degrees. Students are required to find as many triangles as they can which contain any three of these four properties. Once the triangles have been found, students are asked to find...

The first of two RISP activities, Radians and Degrees, students are set the task of finding an angle whose sine value is the same whether measured in radians or degrees....

Tunnelworks is a series of teaching and learning resources linking mathematics and science to the Thames Tideway Tunnel project, a major new sewer that will help protect the River Thames from increasing pollution. Background to the project is given in the...

This document contains a number of activities for students to carry out. They develop an instruction set for a fictional processor which forms a thought-provoking introduction to this topic. Encourage them to think about basic mathematical operations and how data values need to be manipulated within the CPU. This...

This folder of guidance and resources was published for UNESCO by the Association for Science Education. The resources consisted of 26 modules each with Student’s Notes and Teacher’s Notes.

UNESCO Project 2000+ was a collaborative partnership between eleven major international agencies and inter-governmental...

This RISP, Almost Identical, is an activity designed to consolidate work on hyperbolics, exponentials...

This resource, from Mathematics for Engineering Exemplars, shows the application of mathematics when building an underground storage tank, with an elliptical cross section. Health and safety requirements apply and the depth to which the tank must be buried is established using the 2D geometry of an ellipse,...
