Introduction to Mathematics There once was a magnificent mathematical horse. You could teach it arithmetic, which it learned with no difficulty, and algebra was a breeze. It could even prove theorems in Euclidean geometry. But when it tried to learn analytic geometry, it would rear back on its hind legs, and make violent head motions in resistance. The moral of this story is that you can’t put Descartes before the horse. If you have a study routine that you are happy with and you are getting the grade you want from your mathematics class you might benefit from comparing your study habits to the tips presented here. Mathematics is Not a Spectator Sport In order to learn mathematics you must be actively involved in the doing and feeling of mathematics. Work to Understand the Principles ●● LISTEN During Class. No the study guide is not enough. In order to get something out of the class you need to listen while in class. Sometimes important ideas will not be written down, but instead be spoken by the teacher. ●● Learn the (proper) Notation. Bad notation can jeopardise your results. Pay attention to them in the worked examples in this study guide, ●● Practise, Practise, Practise. Practise as much as possible. The only way to really learn how to do problems is work through lots of them. The more you work, the better prepared you will be come exam time. There are extra practise opportunities in this study guide. ●● Persevere. You might not instantly understand every topic covered in a mathematics class. There might be some topics that you will have to work at before you completely understand them. Think about these topics and work through problems from this study guide. You will often find that, after a little work, a topic that initially baffled you will suddenly make sense. ●● Have the Proper Attitude. Always do the best that you can. The AMA of Mathematics ●● ABILITY is what you’re capable of doing. ●● MOTIVATION determines what you do. ●● ATTITUDE determines how well you do it. It is not pure intellectual power that counts, it’s commitment. – Dana Scott © Via Afrika – Mathematics 5 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 5 16/01/2012 12:43
Chapter 1 Algebraic expressions Overview In this unit, we discuss real numbers, which are divided into rational and irrational numbers. Here, you will also learn about surds, and how to round off real numbers. You will also learn how to multiply integers, monomials and binomials by a polynomial. Finally, we discuss factorisation and how to work with algebraic fractions.

Unit 1 The number system 1.1 Real numbers ●● Real numbers are divided into rational and irrational numbers. Natural Whole Rational Integers (Z) numbers (N) numbers (N0) numbers (Q) Real numbers (R) Negative Fractions of the form Irrational Zero ​  ba__​, a, b ∊ Z, b ≠ 0 numbers numbers (Qʹ) ●● We can write a rational number as a fraction, ​ ba__​, where a and b ∈ Z, and b ≠ 0. ●● We cannot express an irrational number as a fraction. 1.2 Surds ●● A surd is a root of an integer that we cannot express as a fraction. ●● Surds are irrational numbers. __ __ ●● Examples of surds are ​√3 ​and ​√2 ​. 1.3 Rounding off ●● If the number after the cut-off point is 4 or less, then we leave the number before it as it is. ●● If the number is equal to 5 or more, then increase the value of the number before it by 1. © Via Afrika – Mathematics 7 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 7 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 2 Multiplying algebraic expressions 2.1 Multiply integers and monomials by polynomials ●● Each term inside the bracket is multiplied by the term in front of the bracket. –​  1__6 ​a2b(6abc – 12ac + 18b) = (–​ 1__6 ​a2b ¿ 6abc) – (–​ 1__6 ​a2b ¿ 12ac) + (– ​ 61__​a2b ¿ 18b) = –a3b2c + 2a3bc – 3a2b2 2.2 The product of two binomials ●● Each term inside the first set of brackets is multiplied by each term inside the second set of brackets. (a – 3b)(a + 7b) = (a × a) + (a × 7b) – (3b × a) – (3b × 7b) = a2 + 7ab – 3ab – 21b2 = a2 + 4ab – 21b2 ●● When squaring a binomial: (m + n)2 = (m + n)(m + n) A common error is to think that = (m × m) + (m × n) + (n × m) + (n × n) (m + n)2 = m2 + n2 = m2 + mn + nm + n2 = m2 + 2mn + n2 The square of any binomial produces the following three terms: 1 The square of the first term of the binomial: m2 2 Twice the product of the two terms: 2mn 3 The square of the second term: n2 2.3 Multiplying a binomial by a trinomial Multiply each term in the first set of brackets by each term in the second set of brackets. Then we simplify by collecting the like terms. (8 – 3y)(12 – 2y + 8y2 – 4y3) = (8 × 12) + (8 × –2y) + (8 × 8y2) + (8 × –4y3) + (–3y × 12) + (–3y × –2y) + (–3y × 8y2) + (–3y × –4y3) = 96 – 16y + 64y2 – 32y3 – 36y + 6y2 – 24y3 + 12y4 = 96 – 52y + 70y2 – 24y3 + 12y4 8 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 8 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 2 2.4 The sum and difference of two cubes ●● The expression in the following form gives the difference of two cubes: (a – b)(a2 + ab + b2) = a3 + a2b + × ab × 2 – a2b – × ab × 2 – b3 = a3 – b3 ●● The expression in this form gives the sum of two cubes: (a + b)(a2 – ab + b2) = a3 – a2b + ab2 + a2b –ab2 + b3 = a3 + b3 © Via Afrika – Mathematics 9 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 9 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 3 Factorisation Factorisation is the opposite process to the one you learnt in the previous unit when multiplying out algebraic expressions. expand y(x + 5) xy + 5y factorise 3.1 Common factors When finding a common factor, we find and take out a factor that can divide into each term in the expression. For example, in the expression 6h3 +18h2, 6h2 can divide into each term, so it becomes the common factor: 6h3 ÷ 6h2 = h 18h2 ÷ 6h2 = +3 Therefore: 6h3 +18h2 = 6h2(h + 3) 3.2 Difference between two squares A difference of two squares occurs when we have two perfect squares separated by a minus sign. An expression in the form a2 – b2 has two factors, (a – b)(a + b). For example: ____ 2 4 2 4a – 81b = (2a + 9b )(2a – 9b ) 2 ​√_____ 4a2 ​= 2a ​√81b4 ​= 9b2 3.3 Perfect squares In Unit 2 you learnt that (x + y)2 = x2 + 2xy + y2. Therefore, a trinomial will factorise into a perfect square if: ●● the first and last terms are perfect squares (e.g. x × x = x2) ●● the middle term is equal to 2 × first term × last term. For example: x2 + 10x + 25 = (x + 5)(x + 5) = (x + 5)2 10 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 10 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 3 3.4 Trinomials of the form x2 + bx + c When factorising a trinomial: ●● If the third term of the trinomial is positive, we use the sum of the factors of the third term to give us the middle term. ●● If the third term of the trinomial is negative, we use the difference between the factors of the third term to give us the middle term. Use the following rules to decide on the signs in the binomials: ●● If the third term of the trinomial is positive, then the signs between the terms in the binomials are the same (both positive or negative). ●● If the third term of the trinomial is negative, then the signs between the terms of the binomials are different. For example: x2 + 3x + 2 = (x + 2)(x + 1) 3.5 Trinomials of the form ax2 + bx + c In this case, the rules are the same as in the previous section, except that now we need to consider the factors of the coefficient of x2 and the last term. For example: 6x2 + x – 15 ●● Multiply the coefficient of the squared term (6) by the last term (–15) = –90. ●● Look for the factors of –90 that will give +1 (the coefficient of the middle term) when added: –9 × 10 = –90 and –9 + 10 = 1 Remember to change ●● Rewrite 6x2 + x – 15 as 6x2 +10x – 9x – 15. the sign inside the 2 brackets when you ●● Group the terms: (6x +10x) – (9x + 15) divide by –1. ●● Take out common factors from each set of brackets: 2x(3x + 5) – 3(3x + 5) = (3x + 5)(2x – 3) Therefore: 6x2 + x – 15 = 6x2 +10x – 9x – 15 = 2x(3x + 5) – 3(3x + 5) = (3x + 5)(2x – 3) 3.6 Factorising by grouping If an expression has four or more terms, but has no factor common to all of them, we can often group the terms, factorise each group, and then remove a common factor. © Via Afrika – Mathematics 11 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 11 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 3 x3 – 3x2 + 2x – 6 = (x3 – 3x2) + (2x – 6) (Group terms together using brackets) = x2(x – 3) + 2(x – 3) (Factor out the common factors from each group) = (x – 3)(x2 + 2) 3.7 Factorising the sum and difference of cubes ●● The difference between_________ two cubes factorises as: a3 – b3 = (a – b)(a2 + ab + b2) ___________ 3 3 ●● The first factor is: (​√ first term ​) – (​√ second    term ​) ●● The second factor is: (Square of the first term) (Opposite sign) (Product of the two terms) + (Square of the last term) For example: y3 – 64 = (y – 4)(y2 + 4y + 16) ●● The sum of two cubes factorises as: a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 – ab + b2) For example: y3 + 64 = (y + 4)(y2 – 4y + 16) 12 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 12 16/01/2012 12:43

Chapter 2 Exponents Overview As you know, we can describe numbers in terms of their factors. For example, 125 = 5 × 5 × 5. We can also write this another way, in exponential form: 125 = 53. Here, 5 is the base, and 3 is the exponent. An exponent is also sometimes called an index or a power. In this chapter, you learn about the laws of exponents, how to simplify exponents and how to solve equations that contain exponents. UNIT 1 Page 17 • What is an exponent?

Unit 1 Laws of exponents 1.1 What is an exponent? In general, we define exponents as follows: xn = x × x × x × x × … × x, n ∈ N This definition states that x is multiplied by itself n times. Here, x is the base, and n is the exponent. 1.2 The laws of exponents ●● bm × bn = b(m + n) (The product rule) m n (m – n) Note that, for these ●● b ÷b =b where m ≥ n and b ≠ 0 (The quotient rule) rules, the base stays 0 ●● a = 1, when a ≠ 0 the same. ●● (bm)n = bmn (The power rule) n n n ●● (ab) = a b ●● a–1 = __ ​ 1a ​, when a ≠ 0 © Via Afrika – Mathematics 17 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 17 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 2 Simplifying exponents In this unit, we revise how to use the laws of exponents to simplify expressions. 2.1 The product rule: bm × bn = b(m + n) The product rule tells you that, when multiplying powers that have the same base, you can add the exponents. Example 1 x5 × x3 = x5 + 3 = x8 2 23 × 2–2 = 23 + (–2) = 21 = 2 3 2 × 23x × 22 = 21 + 3x + 2 = 23x + 3 2.2 The quotient rule: bm ÷ bn = b(m – n) The quotient rule tells you that you can divide powers with the same base by subtracting the exponents. Example 5 1 ​  x__ x ​= x 5–1 = x4 3 An exponent 2 ​  2__ 25 ​= 23 – 5 = 2–2 is also called a 12a _______b 6 6 power. 3 ​  –4a ×–2b3 ​= –3a6 – (–2)b6 – 3 = –3a8b3 2.3 Rules for 0 and 1 Rules Anything to the power zero x1 = x 1n = 1 10 = 1 is equal to 1, 121 = 12 14 = 1 × 1 × 1 × 1 = 1 x0 = 1, x ≠ 0 except 00, which is undefined. Example 1 16a0, a ≠ 0 Everything 2 16 × 1 = 16 inside a bracket to the power of 3 (2 + x)0 = 1 zero is always 4 (–3)0 – 30 = 1 – 1 = 0 [(–3)0 = 1 and 30 = 1] one.

Unit 3 Solving equations that contain exponents The key to solving equations that contain exponents is to ensure that the bases on both sides of the equation are the same. This enables us to compare the exponents, and so solve for the variable. The rule is: If ax = an, then x = n Example 1 3x = 81= 34 [Rewrite 81 in exponential form: 81 = 34] Therefore, x = 4 2 7x – 3 = 49 [Rewrite 49 in exponential form: 49 = 72] 7x – 3 = 72 x – 3 = 2 [Exponents are equal if bases are equal] x = 5 3 3.9x – 1 = 27–x [Make the bases the same by applying the laws of exponents] 3.32(x – 1) = 33(–x) 31 + 2x – 2 = 3–3x 32x – 1 = 3–3x 2x – 1 = –3x 2x + 3x = 1 5x = 1 x = ​ 1__5 ​ 4 2x + 1 = 9 [Move terms without x to the right side of the equation] x 2 = 9 – 1 =8 2 = 23 x [8 = 23] Therefore, x = 3 according to the principle of same bases. 3.1 Solving exponential equations using factorisation Before we remove a common factor from an expression, we sometimes need to apply the laws of exponents in reverse. Example 1 2x + 1 = 2x = 24 [Use the reverse of the product rule: 2x + 1 = 2x × 21] 2x.2 + 2x = 24 [Take out a common factor of 2x] 2x(2 + 1) = 24 3.2x = 24 2x = ​ 24 __​ 3 20 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 20 16/01/2012 12:43

However, if the numbers are inside brackets, and the exponent lies outside the brackets, then the exponent applies to everything inside the brackets.

Chapter 3 Number patterns Overview A number pattern is a list of numbers. The numbers are in a definite order, and follow a fixed rule, or pattern. Examples of number patterns are: ●● Even numbers 2; 4; 6; 8; 10; 12; … ●● Odd numbers 1; 3; 5; 7; 9; 11; … ●● Square numbers 1; 4; 9; 16; 25; 36; 49; … ●● Cube numbers 1; 8; 27; 64; 125; 216; … ●● Fibonacci numbers 1; 1; 2; 3; 5; 8; 13; 21; 34; … In a number pattern: ●● the numbers in the sequence are called terms ●● each term has a position in the sequence. A linear number pattern is a special kind of number pattern, in which the difference between the terms is always a fixed value.

Unit 1 Linear number patterns 1.1 The general term of linear number patterns A linear number pattern has a constant difference between consecutive terms. For example, consider the pattern: 2; 5; 8; 11; … We obtain each term of the pattern by adding 3 to the previous term. Therefore, the difference between the second and first term is 3. The difference between the third and the second term is also 3, and so on. We represent the first term in the pattern by the letter a. We represent the constant difference between terms as d. Therefore, in our previous example: a=2 (first term) d=3 (constant difference) We define the first term (a) as T1, the second term as T2, the third term as T3, and so on. In our example, It is relatively easy to find the sixth term in the pattern (17), but it is not as easy to find, for example the 1 000th term. To do so, we need to develop a rule, or formula. The general formula to calculate the value of a term in a linear number pattern is: Tn = a + (n – 1) × d Therefore, the 1 000th term is: T1 000 = 2 + (999) × 3 = 2 999 Example The general term (Tn) of a sequence is T1 = 6(1) + 2 = 8 Replace n with “1” for Term 1 given by Tn = 6n + 2. Find the first four T2 = 6(2) + 2 = 14 Replace n with “2” for Term 2 terms. T3 = 6(3) + 2 = 20 T4 = 6(4) + 2 = 26 ∴ sequence is 8; 14; 20; 26; … Given the sequence 3; 7; 11; 15 … 3 ; 7 ; 11 ; 15 … Determine the formula for Tn. +4 +4 +4 Constant difference Tn = an + d a = constant difference Therefore: Tn = 4n + d Substitute n = 1: T1 = 4(1) + d = 3 ∴ b = –1 Therefore, Tn = 4n – 1 © Via Afrika – Mathematics 25 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 25 16/01/2012 12:43

There is a constant difference of 12 between matches used. Therefore: 24 = 12(1) + d d =12 Tn = 12n + 12 = 12(n + 1) Term 7 = 12(7) + 12 = 96 matches (if the square is 27 matches wide) Term 156 = 12 (157) = 1 884 matches (if the square is 156 matches wide) Rapunzel created a chain by forming hexagons with matches. She predicts that the number of matchsticks needed to form a chain of 20 hexagons will be 121. To test this prediction, we need a rule: H1 = 6 matches H2 = 6 + 5 = 11 matches H3 = 6 + 5 + 5 = 16 matches © Via Afrika – Mathematics 27 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 27 16/01/2012 12:43

Therefore: Hn = 6 + (n – 1) × 5 = 5n + 1 Apply the rule for 20 hexagons: 5(20) + 1 = 101 Therefore, the prediction is false. 28 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 28 16/01/2012 12:43

Chapter 4 Equations and inequalities Overview In this chapter, we investigate equations and inequalities. We begin with linear equations before moving on to more compicated equations. An inequality is similar to an equation, except that it contains an inequality sign rather than an equals sign. The rules are very similar, but there are also a few important differences. So here you will learn: ●● how to solve linear equations ●● how to solve quadratic equations ●● how to solve simultaneous equations ●● how to work with linear inequalities, including how to represent them on a number line.

Unit 1 Linear equations 1.1 Simplifying linear equations Use the following steps to solve a linear equation: Steps to follow Example Simplify by removing brackets and gathering 3(5x – 2) = 2(4x + 11) like terms. 15x – 6 = 8x + 22 Add and subtract terms on both sides until 15x – 8x = 22 + 6 all variables are on the left of the equals sign 7x = 28 and the constant terms are on the right. 7x Divide both sides by the coefficient of the __ ​  28 ​ ​  ​ = __ 7 7 variable (x). ∴x=4 Check the solution by substituting the value LHS: 3( 5 ¿ 4 – 2) = 3(20 – 2) = 3(18) = 54 back into the original equation. RHS: 2(4 ¿ 4 + 11) = 2(16 + 11) = 2(27) = 54 Since LHS = RHS, the solution is correct. Special cases: Identities and false statements The following statement is true for all values of x, and so we call it an identity. 2(3x + 4) = 6x + 8 ∴ 6x + 8 = 6x + 8 ∴ 6x – 6x = 8 – 8 ∴0=0 ∴x∈R The following statement can never be true, so we call it a false statement. 2(3x + 4) = 6x – 8 ∴ 6x + 8 = 6x – 8 ∴ 6x – 6x = –8 – 8 ∴ 0 = –16 ∴x∉R 1.2 Linear equations with fractions When working with fractions, always remember that you cannot divide by 0.

Unit 2 Quadratic equations A quadratic equation has square term in it, for example, x2 + x – 12 = 0. We say that the equation is of degree 2, or is a second-degree polynomial. When you solve a quadratic equation, you may have 0, 1 or 2 solutions. Steps to follow Example Remove any brackets and take all terms to the left of 2(2a2 – 1) = 7a the equals sign so that there is only a 0 on the right. 4a2 – 2 = 7a The equation will now be in the form: 4a2 – 7a – 2 = 0 ax2 + bx + c = 0 Factorise the equation. (4a + 1)(a – 2) = 0 We find the solution to the equation by letting each (4a + 1) = 0 or (a – 2) = 0 factor equal 0. Why? ∴ a = –​ 1__4 ​ or a=2 If ab = 0, then this statement will be true if a = 0 or if b = 0. Note: Do not fall in the trap of trying to solve an equation without first removing the brackets and making the right-hand side of the equation equal to 0. Example Solve for x: x(x + 3) = 10 Here, the solution is not x = 10 and x + 3 = 10. The correct solution is: x2 + 3x – 10 = 0 (x – 2)(x + 5) = 0 x = 2 or x = –5 34 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 34 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 3 Literal equations A literal equation is usually a formula, such as E = mc2. Since there is more than one variable, we cannot solve a literal equation in the same way as an equation containing only one variable and numbers. What you are expected to be able to do is to change the subject of the formula. All this means is that you need to change the formula so that one variable appears on the left-hand side of the equation, and all the other variables and numbers are on the right-hand side of the equation.

Unit 5 Linear inequalities 5.1 Illustrating inequalities Linear inequalities have a range of solutions. As we will see later, we can represent the solution to an inequality graphically on a number line. Example Solve for x: x + 3 < 2 Even though we have an inequality rather than an equals sign, we use the same principles to solve the equation. x+3–3<2–3 x < –1 5.2 Solving inequalities Note: When multiplying or dividing an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the direction of the inequality sign.

Chapter 5 Trigonometry Overview Here, we will introduce you to trigonometry. Trigonometry is the field of mathematics in which we study the relationship between the sides and angles of triangles. The word trigonometry is derived from the Greek words trigonon, which means triangle, and metron, which means measurement. In ancient times, mathematicians, astronomers and surveyors in Egypt, Babylon, India and China used trigonometry for navigation, surveying and astronomy. For example, they were able to calculate: ●● the height of mountains ●● the distance and direction across the sea (navigation) ●● the dimensions of large areas of land for construction ●● astronomical distances, for example, between the Earth, the moon and the sun. You will also learn how to sketch the graphs of each of the trigonometric ratios.

Unit 1 Right-angled triangles 1.1 Trigonometric ratios in right-angled triangles Trigonometry is the measurement of triangles, specifically right-angled triangles. When we use the Cartesian plane in trigonometry, we call the positive x-axis the 0° line. If we move anti-clockwise by 360°, we have completed a full circle. The line that forms any angle (θ) in this way is known as the terminal side and the angle (θ) is known as the inclination angle. y(90°) Terminal side III Inclination angle θ 180° x (0° or 360°) 0 IIIIV 270° y In a right-angled triangle, each side has a P specific name: β ●● The hypotenuse (OP) is always opposite the 90° angle. ●● The opposite side is opposite the angle. In this example, PR is opposite θ and OR is θ opposite β. 0 R x ●● The adjacent side forms the angle together with the hypotenuse. Therefore OR is adjacent to θ, and PR is adjacent to β. Adjacent is always  hypotenuse θ next to the angle. se θ nu adjacent te po op hy po jac Opposite is opposite sit en e t the angle. ad opposite 42 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 42 16/01/2012 12:43

Unit 3 Special triangles The ratios of certain angles are well known, and we can use them to solve problems. These angles are 0°, 30°, 45°, 60° and 90°.

Unit 4 Using your calculator When all you know is the size of an angle, you can use a calculator to work out the value of a ratio. Your scientific calculator has keys for the trigonometric ratios. Make sure your calculator is in DEG mode when working with degrees. Note: sin–1 on your calculator is not the same as ___ 1 sin . In trigonometry, ___ 1 sin refers to the –1 reciprocal ratio for sin, namely cosec. The sin key on the calculator is the reciprocal function of sin, which is what you use to calculate the value of an angle when you know the value of the ratio. The following example shows how to use your calculator to work out the value of a ratio for a particular angle.

You can calculate an unknown side or angle when you know the sizes of: ●● an angle and a side ●● two sides and we need the angle. Example 1 Using the diagram alongside, calculate the length of A BC if AB is adjacent to ∠A and BC is the opposite side. 50° BC tan 50° = ​ ___ AB ​ 4 cm BC = AB.tan 50° BC = 4.tan 50° B C BC = 4,77 cm (to 2 decimal numbers) 2 Calculate the length of AC, given that AB is adjacent to ∠A and AC is the hypotenuse. cos 50° = ___ ​ AB AC ​ AC.cos 50° = AB AC = cos 50° = A cos 50° AC = 6,22 cm (to 2 decimal numbers) We can also use calculate an angle if we know the value of a ratio. 46 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 46 16/01/2012 12:43

Unit 6 Extending the ratios to 0° ≤ θ ≤ 360° 6.1 Trigonometry ratios in four quadrants By convention we label the four quadrants of a Cartesian plane as follows: y 5 4 Quadrant 2 3 Quadrant 1 2 1 x –5 –4 –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 4 5 –1 –2 Quadrant 3 –3 Quadrant 4 –4 –5 In trigonometry, we tend to think of an angle as created by a rotating radius (arm). The beginning position of the “arm” is called the initial side (usually, the initial side coincides with the positive x-axis; angles with such an initial side are said to be in standard position). When the “arm” rotates and ends up in one of the quadrants, the side (“arm”) is now called the terminal side. The measure of the angle is a number which describes the amount of rotation. If the rotation of the “arm” was clockwise, the angle measure is a negative number; if the rotation was anti-clockwise, the angle measure is positive. Angles greater than 90° We define the trigonometric functions for angles greater than 90° in the following way: y-axis (x; y) Terminal side y r θ x-axis x Initial side 48 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 48 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 6 The trigonometric definitions do not rely on the lengths of the sides of the triangle, but only on the angle. When negative or obtuse angles are used in trigonometric functions, they will sometimes produce negative values. The CAST diagram will help you to remember the signs of trigonometric functions for different angles. The functions will be negative in all quadrants except those that indicate that the function is positive. For example, when the angle is between 0° and 90°, the side r is in the first quadrant. All functions will be positive in this quadrant. When the angle is between 90° and 180°, the terminal side is in the second quadrant. This means that only the sine function is positive. All other functions will be negative. When the angle is between 180° and 270°, the terminal side is in the third quadrant. This means that only the tan function is positive. All other functions will be negative. When the angle is between 270° and 360°, the terminal side is in the fourth quadrant. This means that only the cosine function is positive. All other functions will be negative. y Quadrant 1 4 y Quadrant 2 Quadrant 1 sine of an angle = ​ _r ​ 3 cosine of an angle = ​ _xr ​ y 2 tan of an angle = ​ _x ​ –y r y All positive, because x, y and r > 0 1 x –4 –2 –x 0 x 2 4 –1 –2 –3 Quadrant 3 Quadrant 4 –4 y Quadrant 2 4 y Quadrant 2 Quadrant 1 sine of an angle = _​ r ​ 3 cosine of an angle = ​  –x __​ r y 2 tan of an angle = __ ​  –x ​ –y r y Because x is negative in the second quadrant, all the 1 functions containing x will be negative, i.e. cos and x tan. –4 –2 –x 0 x 2 4 –1 Only the sine function is positive, because y and r > 0. –2 –3 Quadrant 3 Quadrant 4 –4 © Via Afrika – Mathematics 49 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 49 16/01/2012 12:43

Unit 1 What is a function? 1.1 Dependent and independent variables A function is like a machine: ●● it has an input and an output ●● there is a relationship between input and output values ●● the output depends on the input, so we say that the output is a dependent variable and the input is the independent variable. ●● “f (x) = …” is the classic way of writing a function. Rule or function • Input • Output • Independent variable • Dependent variable 1.2 Relationship between variables ●● A function relates inputs to outputs ●● A function is a special type of relation in which: ●● the output value is dependent on the input value ●● any input produces only one output (not this or that) ●● an input and its matching output are together called an ordered pair ●● a function can also be seen as a set of ordered pairs For example: y = 2x + 3 is a function. Input Relationship Output 0 ×2 + 3 3 First, it is useful to give a function a name. 1 ×2 + 3 5 The most common name is “f ”, but you can 2 ×2 + 3 7 have other names, such as “g”. But f is used 3 ×2 + 3 9 most often in mathematics. … … … f (x) = 2x + 3 function name input what to output We read the function statement as: “f of x equals two x plus three”. 58 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 58 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 1 What goes into the function is put inside brackets (  ) after the name of the function. So, f (x) shows you the function is called “f ”, and “2x + 3” tells you that function “f ” takes “x”, multiplies it by two and adds three. The answer is the output. The output value uniquely depends on the input value. An input of 3 gives an output of 9: f (3) = 9. The input and output values can be plotted as coordinates on a graph, in the form (input; output) or (x; f (x)): (0; 3), (1; 5), (2; 7), (3; 9), etc. y 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 x –2 –1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 –1 –2 So, when plotted in the Cartesian plane, the function y = 2x + 3 forms a straight line of the kind y = ax + q, also written as f (x) = ax + q.

Chapter 7 Polygons Overview In this chapter, we will first revise what you have learnt previously about polygons and the concepts of similarity and congruence in triangles. Then, we extend this knowledge to quadrilaterals, including the kite, parallelogram, rectangle, rhombus, square and trapezium. Here, you will investigate and learn about some of the important geometric properties of each of these shapes. Here, you will learn: ●● how two triangles are similar if they are the same shape, but different sizes ●● about corresponding angles and sides ●● how two triangles are congruent if their corresponding sides and angles are the same size ●● about different types of quadrilaterals (trapezium, parallelogram, rhombus, rectangle, square, kite) UNIT 1 Page 76 • Parallelogram Similar triangles • Rectangle • Rhombus • Square • Kite • Trapezium CHAPTER 7 Page 75 Polygons UNIT 2 Page 78 Congruent triangles UNIT 3 Page 80 Quadrilaterals © Via Afrika – Mathematics 75 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 75 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 1 Similar triangles Similar figures have the same shape, but are different sizes. In the case of triangles: ●● Corresponding angles are equal. ●● Corresponding lengths are in the same ratio. B 70° 5 8 60° 50° A 10 C E 10 16 70° D 60° 50° 20 F There are three ways to determine if two triangles are similar. 1. AAA similarity: If in two triangles, the corresponding angles are equal, the triangles are similar. (The 3rd set of angles will be equal, because of the sum of the interior angles of a triangle being 180°.) 2. SSS similarity: If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional the triangles are similar. 3. SAS similarity: If one angle of a triangle is equal to one angle of the other triangle and the sides containing these angles are proportional, the triangles are similar. Finding the scale factor We use the scale factor to find missing lengths of similar figures. Here, we can: ●● Find a corresponding side in each shape when we know the length of 15 cm both. 10 cm 12 cm 8 cm ●● Divide the length in the shape we are going to by the length in the shape we are coming from. 6 cm 9 cm ¿ 1,5 ¿ ​ __23 ​ 76 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 76 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 1 Example To find the scale factor from A to B, divide the length in B by the length in A: 9 ÷ 6 = 1,5 The scale factor from A to B is 1,5. Similarly, to find the scale factor from B to A, divide the length in A by the length in B: 6 ÷ 9 = ​ 2__3 ​ The scale factor from B to A is ​ 2__3 ​. To prove that two triangles are similar, we have to show that one (not all) of the following statements is true: ●● The three sides are in the same proportion. ●● Two sides are in the same proportion, and their included angle is equal. ●● The three angles of the first triangle are equal to the three angles of the second triangle. Notes: ●● The symbol for similarity is ||| ●● The order of the points in the names of the triangles is important. Equal angles of the two triangles must coincide. © Via Afrika – Mathematics 77 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 77 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 2 Congruent triangles Congruent triangles have the same size and the same shape. The corresponding sides and the corresponding angles of congruent triangles are equal. There are four methods to prove if two triangles are congruent. 1. The Side-Side-Side principle (SSS): A D The three corresponding sides of two triangles must be the same. B C E F 2. The Side-Angle-Side principle (SAS): A D The two corresponding sides and the included angle of two triangles must be equal. B C E F 3. The Angle-Side-Angle principle (ASA): A D The two corresponding angles and the included side of two triangles must be equal. B C E F 4. The Right-Angle-Hypotenuse-Side principle A D (RHS): The hypotenuse and one corresponding side of the two right-angled triangles must be equal.

Chapter 9 Finance, growth and decay Overview Interest is a fee paid to borrow money. It is usually charged or paid as a percentage of the total amount borrowed or invested. An interest rate is the cost stated as a percentage of the amount borrowed/invested per period of time, usually one year. Simple interest and compound interest are examples of how interest can be calculated. The compound interest formula can also be used in other areas in which compound growth occurs, such as inflation, exchange rates and population growth.

Unit 1 Simple interest Simple interest is calculated as a constant percentage based only on the amount of money invested/borrowed. Here, we do not receive or pay interest on any interest accrued during the period of the loan or investment. 1.1 Calculating simple interest ●● Simple interest is calculated on the original principal amount only. ●● The formula is: simple interest = P × i × n, where ●● P = principal (original amount borrowed or loaned) ●● i = interest rate for one period ●● n = number of periods Example 1 You borrow R10 000 for 3 years at 5% simple interest, paid annually. 5 ___​= 0,05) P = R10 000; n = 3; i = 0,05 (5% = ​  100 interest = P × i × n = 10 000 × 0,05 × 3 = R1 500 2 a You borrow R10 000 for 60 days at 5% simple interest per year (assume a 365 day year). P = R10 000; n = (60 ÷ 365); i = 0,05 interest = P × i × n = 10 000 × 0,05 × (60 ÷ 365) = R1 500  Note: interest is calculated per year, but the loan is only for 60 days. This is a fraction part of the year. Therefore, n = (60 ÷ 365). b After the 60 days, you have to pay the money back, with interest. A = P + simple interest = R 10 000 + R82,19 = R10 082,19 A = P + P × i × n (take out a common factor) A = P(1 + in) Example An amount, b, is invested at 7,5% p.a. for 3 years to yield simple interest amounting to R500. Find the value of b. 92 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 92 16/01/2012 12:43

During the repayment period, the buyer does not own whatever was bought. The buyer only takes ownership once the loan has been paid in full. Example Jean wants to buy a motorbike for R10 500. He pays a deposit of R2 000. He wishes to pay the balance using a hire purchase agreement over 3 years. The interest charged on the loan is 18% per annum. Included in the agreement, is an insurance cost of 2% per annum on the purchase price of the motor bike. Calculate his monthly instalment. Balance owing after deposit = R8 500 Insurance = (2% of R10 500) × 3 years = R630 Interest on R8 500 = P ¿ i ¿ n = R8 500 × 18 × 3 = R4 590 8 500 + 630 + 4 590 Monthly Payment = ______________ ​    36 ​ = R381,11 © Via Afrika – Mathematics 93 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 93 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 2 Compound growth 2.1 Compound interest ●● Compound interest is calculated each period on the original principal and all interest accumulated during past periods. ●● Although the interest may be stated as a yearly rate, the compounding periods can be yearly, semi-annually, quarterly, or even continuously. ●● You can think of compound interest as a series of back-to-back simple interest contracts. The interest earned in each period is added to the principal of the previous period to become the principal for the next period. For example, you borrow R10 000 for three years at 5% annual interest compounded annually: ●● interest year 1 = P × i × n = 10 000 × 0,05 × 1 = 500 ●● interest year 2 = (P2 = P1 + i1) × i × n = (10 000 + 500) × 0,05 × 1 = 525 ●● interest year 3 = (P3 = P2 + i2) × i × n = (10 500 + 525) × 0,05 × 1 = 551,25 ●● Total interest earned over the 3 years = 500 + 525 + 551,25 = 1 576,25 Compare this to 1 500 paid over the same period using simple interest. The formula for compound interest is A = P(1 + i)n, where ●● A = the amount at the end of a loan/investment period ●● P = the principle (initial amount borrowed/invested) ●● i = the interest rate (expressed as a decimal number) ●● n = the period of the loan/investment Example An amount of R1 500,00 is deposited in a bank paying an annual interest rate of 4,3%, compounded quarterly. What is the balance after 6 years? Using the compound interest formula, we have: P = 1 500, i = 0,043, n = 6 However, because the interest is calculated quarterly, we divide i by 4 and multiply n by 4. Therefore: ( A = 1 500​​ 1 + _____ ) 0,043 4(6) ​  4 ​  ​​ ​≈ R1 938,84 So the balance after 6 years is approximately R1 938,84 94 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 94 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 12 2.2 Applications of compound growth 2.2.1 Inflation Inflation refers to an ongoing general increase in prices. Use the compound growth formula if you need to work out how much something will cost in future: A = P(1 + i)n Inflation means that we can buy less in future, so if you need to work out what is something worth in future, just an adjusted formula: A = P(1 – i)n Example If the average rate of inflation for the past few years was 7,3%, and your family’s water and electricity bill is on average R1 425, what can you expect to pay in 6 years’ time? A = P(1 + i)n 2.2.2 Exchange rates ●● An exchange rate gives the relationship between two countries’ currencies. Example 1 Ruff wants to import a TV from England at a price of £507, plus a delivery cost of 15% and import duty of 20%. The equivalent TV locally costs R13 000. The exchange rate is R14,08 to the pound. Show, with necessary calculations, whether Ruff should import or buy locally. £507 × 14,08 = R7 138,56 Delivery cost = R7 138,56 × 15% = R1 070,78 Import duty = R7 138,56 × 20% = R1 427,71 Total cost = R 9 637,05 Conclusion: It costs less to import the TV 2 If the exchange rate is 1 euro = R8,1671 and 1 pound sterling = R12,1668, determine the exchange rate between the euro and the pound. 1 euro = R8,1671 1 rand = 1 ÷ 8,1671 = 0,1224 euro 1 pound sterling = R12,1668 1 rand = £(1 ÷ 12,1668) = £0,0822 0,1224 euro = £0,0822 1 euro = £0,6713 © Via Afrika – Mathematics 95 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 95 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 12 2.2.3 Population growth ●● Since we are referring to growth, we use the formula A = P(1 + i)n. ●● Here, i = rate of population growth and P = initial size of the population. Example There are 12 500 people in a small town. The population of the town increases every year by 5,5%. What will the population of the town be after 5 years? A = 12 500(1 + 0,055)5 A ≈ 16 337 96 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 96 16/01/2012 12:43

Unit 1 Measures of central tendency: ungrouped data There are mainly two different types of numerical which could be collected, namely discrete and continuous data. ●● Discrete data is data with specific values normally gathered by means of counting, e.g. we are three children in our family. ●● Continuous data is data that can occupy any value between two points and is usually obtained through measurement, e.g. I am 1,76 m tall. 1.1 The mean, median and mode Mean The arithmetic mean is commonly known as the average. It is calculated by the sum of the values in the sample group (∑x), divided by the number of values in the sample group (n). ∑x Mean = __ ​  n ​ Median The median is the middle value in the sample group, after they have been arranged in ascending order. In other words, it is the value in the middle of the ordered data. If there is an even number of values, the median is the average of the two middle values. Mode The mode is the value that appears most often. In other words, it is the value with the highest frequency. How do we decide which measure to use? It is important to use the most appropriate measure of central tendency in order to make a sound conclusion. (You sometimes have to answer such a question in a test or exam.) Measure Advantages Disadvantages Average/Mean • Most common measure • If an extreme (very large or very • Used widely in media small) value is added, the average • Easy to calculate changes drastically • All values in the sample group are • Cannot be used when the data value used is simply a category Median • Easy to identify if the sample group • Time consuming if the sample if very is small big and not in ascending order Mode • No calculation needed • A small sample usually does not • Easy to deduce in grouped data have a mode • Is used to describe any kind of data • More than one mode is possible © Via Afrika – Mathematics 99 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 99 16/01/2012 12:43

Unit 2 Measures of dispersion 2.1 The range The range = largest value – smallest value. It gives us an indication of how big the span of the data is. For example, does the data lie between 1 and 10 or 1 and 100? 2.2 Quartiles The quartiles divide the data (in ascending order) into four quarters. Every quarter has the same number of items. There are three quartiles: ●● The lower quartile (Q1) ●● The middle quartile or median (Q2) ●● The upper quartile (Q3) 2.3 Interquartile range The interquartile range is the difference between the third quartile and the first quartile. It measures the range of the middle 50% of the data (in ascending order). A large interquartile range indicates the data values are widely dispersed. ●● Interquartile range = Third quartile – First quartile ●● IQR = Q3 – Q1 2.4 Semi-interquartile range The semi-interquartile range is half of the range of the middle half of the data. It is seldom influenced by extreme values in a set of data, and so is a good measure of dispersion. Third quartile – First quartile Semi-interquartile range = ____________________ ​    2 ​ 2.5 Percentiles ●● The percentiles divide the data into 100 equal parts. ●● Every part has the same number of items. ●● Percentiles give an indication of how many values in the data set are smaller than a certain value. ●● For example, the 56th percentile of 70 means that 56% of the other values are less than 70. © Via Afrika – Mathematics 101 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 101 16/01/2012 12:43

Unit 1 Probability ●● Probability is the study of chance. number of favourable outcomes ________________________ ●● Probability is calculated as follows: P(A) = ​       ​ total number of outcomes 1.1 The language of probability To illustrate each of the following terms, consider rolling a normal six-sided die. Suppose we want to know the probability of rolling an odd number: ●● Outcome: the result of an experiment (roll an odd number) ●● Sample space: the set of all possible outcomes (set {1; 2; 3; 4; 5; 6}) ●● Event: a subset of the sample space (set {1; 3; 5}) ●● An event that will definitely take place has a probability of 1. ●● An event that can never take place has a probability of 0. ●● All other events fall somewhere between these two extremes. ●● Probability can be expressed as a fraction, decimal fraction or percentage. 1.2 Theoretical probability The outcome of rolling a die will be a number from 1 to 6. We want to know the probability of a successful outcome, which is one that matches an event. If we let n(S) be the number of items in the sample space, n(A) be the number of items in event A, and P(A) be the probability that A will occur: number of successful outcomes n(A) P(A) = ____________________________   ​ = ____ ​     total number of all possible outcomes ​  ​ n(S) In our example, A is the possibility of rolling an odd number. Since there are three odd numbers between 1 and 6, we have: n(A) P(rolling an odd number) = ____ ​  36 ​ = __ ​  ​ = __ ​  12 ​ n(S) 1.3 Relative frequency The relative frequency is the actual frequency of an event during an experiment. In practice, many instances occur where the probability of an event is not easy to calculate. The only way to determine the probability of such an event is to determine its relative frequency through many experiments. ●● Relative frequency =​ __​(where: x = total favourable outcomes and N = total possible x N outcome in the sample space.) 118 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 118 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 1 Example Cat and his friend Ratatouille learnt in their Maths class that the probability of a coin falling on heads is 50%, but struggle to believe it. Cat is the captain of the U16 soccer team and has lost many a coin toss on a Saturday morning. The two friends decide to test the theory experimentally. Cat flipped the coin and Ratatouille recorded the results. The results after 80 flips were as follows: H H T H T T H H H T H T T T H T H T H T T H T T H H T T T H H T T T H H H H T T T T H H T H T H T H T T T H T H T T T H T H T H T H H T H T H H T T H H H H H H According to the data, what is the relative frequency of heads (H) after: 1 10 throws? 2 20 throws? 3 30 throws? 4 80 throws? 6 __​= 0,6 1 After 10 throws: RF = ​ 10 2 After 20 throws: RF = ​ 10 __​= 0,5 20 3 After 30 throws: RF = ​ 14 __​= 0,47 30 4 After 80 throws: RF = ​ 40 __​= 0,5 80 The relative frequency of an event is predicted with the aid of an experiment or an investigation. © Via Afrika – Mathematics 119 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 119 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 2 Combination of events 2.1 Venn diagrams Venn diagrams are used to visually represent the sample space of an experiment and the relationship between the events in the sample space. Remember: The sample space contains all the possible outcomes of an event. For example, suppose a container contains 7 red marbles and 6 blue marbles. The collection of red marbles is a subset of all the marbles. The same is true for the collection of blue marbles. ● Number of marbles in the sample space S Blue marbles = n(S) = 13 ● Number of marbles in the red 7 subset= n(R) = 7 6 ● Number of marbles in the blue subset = n(B) = 6 Red marbles ● thus: n(S) = n(R) + n(B) 2.2 Using Venn diagrams to solve probability problems ● The union of two collections, A and B, contains all elements that occur in A or B: Union of A or B = A ∪ B ● The intersection of two collections, A and B, S A B contains all elements that occurs in both A and B: Intersection of A and B = A ∩ B ● Two collections are disjoint if there are no elements belonging to both collections. In other words: n(A ∩ B) = 0. Mutually exclusive events In this case, if A happens, B cannot happen, and S A B vice versa. ● P(A OR B) = P(A) + P(B) ● The events cannot both happen at the same time. ● The sets of outcomes for the events are disjoint (have no elements in common). Therefore P(A B) = 0 n(A) + n(B) ● P(A ∪ B) = ________ n(S) = P(A) + P(B) ● n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) 120 © Via Afrika – Mathematics • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 120 16/01/2012 12:43
Unit 2 Complementary events Events A and B are complementary if, together, A and B form the S A complete sample space. ●● n(A) + n(B) = n(S) ●● P(A) + P(B) = 1 P(A) = 1 – P(B) ●● A = B′ = complement of A ●● If the events A and B are not mutually exclusive, then: P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A and B) Independent events The outcomes of independent events do not influence each other. When A and B are independent events: P(A AND B) = P(A) × P(B). © Via Afrika – Mathematics 121 • Via Afrika Maths Study Guide Gr10 121 16/01/2012 12:43

Answers iii From the two graphs we notice the following: The female histogram tells us that learners’ abilities are similar. The histogram is fairly compact. The male histogram tells us that learners’ achievements are of a very mixed ability. The histogram is very spread out. iv It looks as though the female learners performed better because the results are grouped together higher up the scale. However, even though the male learners have the highest mark, there is a spread towards the lower end of the scale, which would lower their average. 4 a Learner A: 266 ÷ 6 = 44,33% Learner B: 214 ÷ 6 = 35,67% Learner C: 329 ÷ 6 = 54,83% b Learner A: 69 – 22 = 47% Learner B: 55 – 11 = 44% Learner C: 64 – 45 = 19% c Learner C is the only one of the three with a mean over 50% and is also the most consistent (range = 11%).
