The lessons in order
| Ref | Lesson pack | Structure | Worksheet | Quiz | Lab tab |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.1 | Completing the square Rewrite any quadratic as a square plus a constant and its graph gives up its secrets: the vertex, the line of symmetry, the least or greatest value and the range, all without a single derivative. | Round Table | 6 Q, 20 marks | 8 MCQ | tab 4 |
| 1.1 | The discriminant Hidden under the square root of the quadratic formula is one number, \(b^{2} - 4ac\). | Rally Coach | 6 Q, 20 marks | 8 MCQ | none |
| 1.1 | Quadratic equations and inequalities Solve quadratic equations by factorising, completing the square or the formula, then use the roots and a quick sketch to solve quadratic inequalities, including the sets of values that discriminant questions produce. | Cooperative Concept Mapping | 6 Q, 20 marks | 8 MCQ | tab 4 |
| 1.1 | Simultaneous equations: one linear, one quadratic When one equation is linear and the other is quadratic, make one letter the subject of the linear equation and substitute. | Round Table | 6 Q, 24 marks | 8 MCQ | none |
| 1.1 | Equations quadratic in a function of x \(x^{4} - 5x^{2} + 4 = 0\) looks like a quartic, but it is really a quadratic in \(x^{2}\). | Rally Coach | 6 Q, 21 marks | 8 MCQ | none |
