You should draw four columns as shown below. In the first column write down your guess. In the second column work out the answer using your guess. If your answer is too big write your guess in the too big column. If your answer is too small write your guess in the too small column.
Guess Answer Too big Too small

Question
Find the value of x correct to 1 decimal place using trial and improvement methods. You must not use the key on your calculator x2 = 78.

Answer
You may have used different values in your calculations.
Guess x 8 is too small. Guess higher 8 is too small. 9 is too big Guess between 8 and 9 8.5 is too small. 9 is too big Guess between 8.8 and 9 8.8 is too small. 8.9 is too big Guess between 8.8 and 8.9 8 9 8.5 8.8 8.9 8.85 Answer x2 64 81 72.25 77.44 79.21 78.3225 8.9 8.85 9 8.5 8.8 Too big Too small 8

8.8 is too small, 8.85 is too big. The answer must be between 8.8 and 8.85. Therefore the value of x correct to 1 decimal place is 88. Note: If the question was Find the square root of 78 without using the square root key () on your calculator you would use exactly the same method.

Calculating fractions and percentages


To calculate one number as a fraction of another number. Example 10 people out of 25 went to work by bus. Write this as a fraction in its lowest terms.

Without a calculator 10/25 Divide top and bottom by 5 2/5

With a calculator. The calculator should have a fraction key ab/c . Calculator keys: 1 0 ab/c 2 5 = Answer 2/5

To calculate one number as a percentage of another number. Example 284 people out of 800 wore glasses. Write this as a percentage.

Without a calculator. 284/800 x 100 = 35.5% With a calculator. Calculator keys: 2 8 4 8 0 0 % Answer 35.5%

With some calculators you may have to press = at the end.

Notes and Examples
When working with percentages the total is 100%. If we are working with price increases or decreases the cost price or original price is 100%.

Example
A man earns 350 per week. He then receives a wage increase. His new wage is 371. Calculate the percentage wage increase. His wage increase is 371 - 350 = 21 21 His original wage is 350 350 The cost price, original price or total goes on the bottom line

You must understand a problem before you can write an equation to solve it. Try putting numbers in for the letters. This will help you to understand what the question is asking.

Question
1 A man buys a apples at 8p each. The total cost is 96p. a b Form an equation to show this. Solve the equation.

2 I think of a number N, I double it and add 15. The answer is 31. a b Form an equation to show this. Solve the equation.

Answer
1 a Try putting numbers in for the letters. How would you work out the cost of: 5 apples 6 apples 7 apples a apples 8 x 5 = 40 8 x 6 = 48 8 x 7 = 56 8 x a = 96

The equation is 8a = 96 b 8a = 96 8a = 96/8 8a = 12 2 a Choose numbers. See what happens: if N = 3 3 x 2 + 15 = 21 if N = 4 4 x 2 + 15 = 23 if N = 5 5 x 2 + 15 = 25 Try N N x 2 + 15 = 31 The equation is N x 2 + 15 = 31 or 2N + 15 = 31 b N x 2 + 15 Nx2 Nx2 N N = = = = = 31 31 - 15 16 16/2 8

The Quadrilateral Game


Rules: This is a game for two players. You need two dice. Each player starts with six rhombus, five kites, four trapeziums, three parallelograms, two rectangles and one square. Cut out the shapes at the bottom of the page. Choose one different number from 2 to 12 for each shape. Suppose you choose 8 for the kite. Each time you throw an 8 you can get rid of one kite. The first player to get rid of all of their shapes wins. Use a pencil to complete the table, then you can change your numbers for the next game.

E = Exterior angles The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon is 360

I E

Interior angle + exterior angle = 180

Questions
1 Find the size of an exterior and an interior angle of a regular octagon. 2 Find the size of an exterior and an interior angle of a regular hexagon.

Answers
1
E I E I E I E I E I E I E I E I

An octagon has 8 sides, 8 exterior angles, 8 interior angles 8 exterior angles = 360 Therefore 1 exterior angle = 360 = 45 8 Interior angle + exterior angle = 180 Interior angle + 45 = 180 Interior angle = 135

This question can be solved using the above method. An alternative method is to split the shape into triangles.
4 triangles are formed Therefore the sum of the interior angles is 4 x 180 = 720 6 interior angles = 720 1 interior angle = 120 Interior + exterior = 180 120 + exterior = 180 Exterior = 60

Handling Data

Collect and record continuous data in frequency tables and frequency diagrams
Continuous data is data which can have any value eg distance between two places, height of a person. The height of a person can be measured to any degree of accuracy. A person could be 1.783642 m tall. Discrete data is data which can only have certain values eg the number of people in a room can only have whole number values. You cannot have 3.2 people in a room. If you are asked to collect data you must choose an appropriate method. Usually a survey or an experiment. You must record your data and then present it in tables, diagrams and graphs.

Classroom number This diagram shows a no correlation

A positive correlation indicates that as one quantity increases so does the other quantity. The diagram shows that in general taller people are heavier. A negative correlation indicates that as one quantity increases the other quantity decreases. The diagram shows that in general the more time a person spends at work, the less time he spends at home. No correlation indicates that there is no relationship between the two quantities. The diagram shows that a pupils house number has no connection with the pupils classroom number.

Diamonds
Rules: You will need squared paper or graph paper. Stage 1 Stage 2 Start with 1 square in the centre of your paper. Add new squares to the first square. Each new square must touch the previous square along one side only.

2 2
Correct only one side only

2 2
Wrong Two sides are touching

Make a copy of this and fill it in as far as stage 9. 2 Now you are ready to draw some diamond patterns. You will need some graph paper. Size A4 with 2 mm squares is best. Use four or eight different colours eg red, blue, yellow, green. Colour each stage eg stage 1 red, 2 blue, 3 yellow, 4 green, 5 red, 6 blue, etc.

3 You can make more interesting patterns by changing the colours after each diamond shape. It is best to use four or eight different colour. 4 Now you must investigate the patterns. Look at what happens for the first few stages. Stage 1 2 3 4 5 6 etc Squares 1 4 4 12 4 12

Can you predict the stages when diamond shapes appear? Can you find rules for each stage?
