GCSE Bearings revision- Foundation/Higher

There are three important rules to remember when faced with a bearing problem:

  1. Always start from north 
  2. Always turn clockwise 
  3. Write as 3-digits. e.g 035
Bearing problems are often worded: Find the bearing of B from A. This means you need to put your protractor on A and then measure the bearing to B, with zero facing north, going clockwise around your protractor and writing as three digits. 

Here is a video from corbett maths and some practise questions to have a go at.


Exam Questions: 



Higher GCSE: Circle Theorems

For your GCSE exam you will need to remember these circle theorems.

When answering circle theorem problems, it is extremely important to use the correct vocabulary. The examiners are looking for certain key words, for example circumference, center, cyclic quadratic etc. Using the vocabulary in the post above from Corbett maths is important. 

Here are some practice exam questions and answers to have a go at!

Year 10 homework- Knowledge Organiser Measures and Accuracy

This week the year 10 homework will be to create your own knowledge organiser on a given topic. A knowledge organiser notes the specific knowledge which is important to remember. 

An example of a knowledge organiser created by Emeny Learning can be found here



How you wish to structure this is entirely up to you, it needs to be completed onto A4 yellow paper or highlighted yellow around the edge.

If you want a template this can be found here, however feel free to be creative! This is a tool which is important for revision next year, make sure that you complete it well to help when it comes to revising this topic.
