Flashcards

Expanding brackets

Using the distributive property to remove parentheses from an algebraic expression. Example: a(b+c) = ab+ac

Multiplying in algebra

When multiplying algebraic terms, multiply the coefficients and combine the pronumerals. Example: 5 * x * 2 * y = 10xy

Decimal place value

The position of a digit in a decimal number determines its value (e.g., tenths, hundredths). Example: '3.14' - 3 is ones, 1 is tenths, 4 is hundredths.

Rounding decimals

Rounding decimals to a specified place value (e.g., hundredths, tenths): 4 or below round down, 5 or above round up.

Study Notes

Algebraic Techniques

  • When multiplying algebraic terms, multiply the coefficients and combine the variables.
  • When dividing, simplify the coefficients and divide variables. Example: 12a/6b = 2a/b
  • Understand expanding brackets: a(b + c) = ab + ac
  • Define pronumerals clearly when applying algebra.
  • Identify and apply patterns (squares, cubes, etc.) in numerical sequences.

Decimals

  • Understand place value (thousands, hundreds, tens, ones, tenths, hundredths, thousandths).
  • Rounding decimals: follow rules (4 or below round down, 5 or above round up).
  • Convert between decimals and fractions, including recurring decimals.
  • Convert between decimals and percentages.
  • Perform addition and subtraction of decimals, aligning decimal points.
  • Multiply and divide decimals (consider the number of decimal places).
  • Multiply and divide by powers of 10 (move decimal place accordingly).

Angles and Geometry

  • Understand points (capital letter), lines, rays, segments, planes, collinear points, concurrent lines, and intersections.
  • Know complimentary (angles add to 90°) and supplementary (angles add to 180°).
  • Recognize types of triangles (scalene, isosceles, equilateral) and their properties.
  • Understand triangle angle sum (180°).
  • Know how to find the area of a triangle.
  • Define quadrilaterals (convex, non-convex).
  • Calculate the angle sum of a quadrilateral (360°).
  • Recognize line and rotational symmetry.

Equations

  • Differentiate between expressions (numbers, operations, pronumerals without an equals sign) and equations (a statement saying two things are equal).
  • Solve equations by inspection.
  • Understand equivalent equations (both sides of the equation are equal).
  • Solve equations systematically using a known method (BODMAS/PEMDAS in reverse).
  • Solve equations that include fractions (multiply both sides by the denominator).
  • Solve equations with brackets (collect like terms, expand brackets).
  • Define the subject and use formulas which relate to different mathematical concepts.
  • Understand how to use equations to solve real-world problems, including appropriate units.

Measurement

  • Convert between units of length using powers of 10 (multiply or divide by powers of ten)
  • Define and use terms associated with circles (diameter, radius, chord, tangent, sector, and segment).
  • Calculate circumference of a circle (C = 2Ï€r or C = Ï€d).
  • Calculate arc length of a sector.
  • Understand and calculate the perimeter of composite figures.
  • Know units of area (mm², cm², m², ha, km²).
  • Calculate the area of a rectangle (Area = length × breadth).
  • Calculate the area of a square (Area = side × side = s²).
  • Calculate the area of a triangle (Area = ½ × base × height).
  • Calculate the area of a parallelogram (Area = base × perpendicular height).
  • Calculate the area of composite shapes (add or subtract areas of component shapes).
  • Understand volume (cubic units) and calculate the volume of prisms (rectangular, cube, triangular).
  • Understand capacity (liquid measure).
  • Convert between units of volume.
  • Understand mass (grams, kilograms, tonnes).
  • Understand temperature and units of temperature.
  • Convert between units of mass.
