Work with coordinates in all four quadrants. Recognise, sketch and produce graphs of

Linear functions of one variable

Quadratic functions of one variable Understand and use standard mathematical formulae; rearrange formulae to change the subject, including where the subject appears more than once. Interpret mathematical relationships both algebraically and graphically e.g. direct and inverse proportion and real life graphs. Reduce a given linear equation in two variables to the standard form y = mx + c Calculate and interpret gradients and intercepts of graphs of such linear equations numerically, graphically and algebraically. Use linear and quadratic graphs to estimate values of y for given values of x and vice versa and to find approximate solutions of simultaneous linear equations.

Draw and measure line segments and angles in geometric figures, including interpreting scale drawings and use of bearings. Use scale factors, scale diagrams and maps. Identify and construct congruent triangles, and construct similar shapes by enlargement, with and without coordinate grids. Derive and use the standard ruler and compass constructions (perpendicular bisector of a line segment, constructing a perpendicular to a given line from/at a given point, bisecting a given angle); recognise and use the perpendicular distance from a point to a line as the shortest distance to the line.

Use and interpret scatter graphs of bivariate data and recognise correlation. Draw and analyse frequency polygons. For continuous data given in the form of a table find an estimate of the mean, modal class interval and class interval that contains the median.

Record, describe and analyse the frequency of outcomes of simple probability experiments involving randomness, fairness, equally and unequally likely outcomes, using appropriate language and the 0-1 probability scale. Understand that the probabilities of all possible outcomes sum to 1. Enumerate sets and unions/intersections of sets systematically, using tables, grids and Venn diagrams. Generate theoretical sample spaces for single and combined events with equally likely, mutually exclusive outcomes and use these to calculate theoretical probabilities.

𝑎−𝑛

𝑎1/𝑛

𝑎−1/𝑛 where 𝑛 is an integer.

Apply angle facts, triangle congruence, similarity and properties of quadrilaterals to derive results about angles and sides, including Pythagoras’ Theorem, and use known results to obtain simple proofs. Use Pythagoras’ Theorem and trigonometric ratios in similar triangles to solve problems involving right-angled triangles. Know the formulae for: Pythagoras’ theorem, a2 + b2 = c2, and the trigonometric ratios: sinθ = 𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒/ℎ𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒 cosθ = 𝑎𝑑𝑗𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡/ℎ𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒 tanθ = 𝑜𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒/𝑎𝑑𝑗𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡 Apply them to find angles and lengths in right-angled triangles and, where possible, general triangles in two and three dimensional figures. Know the exact values of sinθ and cosθ for θ = 0˚, 30˚, 45˚, 60˚ and 90˚; know the exact value of tanθ for θ = 0˚, 30˚, 45˚ and 60˚
