EUCLIDEAN GEOMETRY INTRODUCTION In Grades 10 to 11 Geometry ceases to deal mainly with finding the size of angles and line segments but focuses more on proofs. A Geometry proof is different in that you start from scratch unlike proofs in Trigonometry, Analytical Geometry and Algebra where you start, either on the left hand side (LHS) or right hand side (RHS). It is therefore important for all the learners to understand a basic deductive proof in Euclidean geometry and be able to write/construct a simple deductive proof before proceeding to complex proofs found in Grade 10 and 11. ANNUAL TEACHING PLAN: DATES CURRICULUM STATEMENT 1. Revision of grade 10 geometry and accept results established in earlier grades as axioms ( 1 day). 14/2 – 21/2 2. Then investigate and prove the theorems of the geometry of circles: (6 days)  The line drawn from the centre of a circle perpendicular to a chord bisects the chord;  The perpendicular bisector of a chord passes through the centre of the circle;  The angle subtended by an arc at the centre of a circle is double the size of the angle subtended by the same arc at the circle (on the same side of the chord as the centre)  Angles subtended by a chord of the circle, on the same side of the chord are equal; 3. Solve circle geometry problems, providing reasons for statements. 24/2– 25/2 (2 days) 26/2-28/2 Accept results established in earlier grades as axioms and also that 3days) a tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius, drawn to the point of contact.  The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary  Two tangents drawn to a circle from the same point outside the circle are equal in length;  The angle between the tangent to a circle and the chord drawn from the point of contact is equal to the angle in the alternate segment. 3. Use the above theorems and their converses, where they exist, to 02/3 – 16/5 solve riders. (2 days) (Proofs of theorems printed in bold can be asked in examinations, but not the proofs of their converses: CAPS p.34) 2
WEIGHTING IN NOVEMBER EXAMINATION: Topic Weighting Euclidean Geometry 50±3 out of 150 ( 33.3%) BASELINE ASSESSMENT: ACTIVITY 1 Refer to the diagram below: it is a parallelogram with one angle equal to x (marked below). Eight more angles are unmarked. Determine the value of each angle in terms of x, and mark each one clearly on the diagram. NO STATEMENTS, WORKING OR REASONS ARE REQUIRED TO BE SHOWN FOR THIS QUESTION. ACTIVITY 2 Refer to the diagram below and determine x. Reasons must be given for any geometric statements made.

P L M O N Statement Reason …………………………………………………………… …….…………………………. …………………………………………………………… …….…………………………. …………………………………………………………… …….…………………………. …………………………………………………………… …….…………………………. STRATEGIES 1. Read the problem carefully for understanding. You may need to underline important points and make sure you understand each term in the given and conclusion. 2. Draw the sketch if it is not already drawn. The sketch need not be accurately drawn but must as close as possible to what is given i.e. lines and angles which are equal must look equal or must appear parallel etc. Also indicate further observations based on previous theorems. 3. Indicate on the figure drawn or given all the equal lines and angles, lines which are parallel, drawing in circles, and measures of angles given if not already indicated in the question. It might be more helpful to have a variety of colour pens or highlighters for this purpose. 4. Usually you can see the conclusion before you actually start your formal proof of a rider. Always to write the reason for each important statement you make, quoting in brief the theorem or another result as you proceed. 5. Sometimes you may need to work backwards, asking yourself what I need to show to prove this conclusion (required to be proved) and then see if you can prove that as you reverse. 5
6. WRITE GEOMETRY REASONS CORRECTLY. Refer to acceptable reasons as reflected in the Examination Guidelines. 7. When you see the Diagram and see the information provided use what I call the “Doctor Cape Town” Method. That is look for Diameter/ Radius/ Cyclic Quadrilaterals/ Parallel Lines/ Tangents in other words DRCPT (Doctor Cape Town) this will help you identify all the key aspects in the diagram and make problem solving easier! 8. How to Prove.......... 8.1 That lines are parallel: Prove: Alternate angles equal or Corresponding angles equal or Co-interior angles supplementary. 8.2 That a quadrilateral is Cyclic: Prove: That a pair of opposite angles is supplementary or The exterior angle is equal to the interior opposite angle or The angles in the same segment are equal. 8.3 That a line is a diameter: Prove: That the angle subtended by the line on the circumference is a right angle. 8.4 That a line is a tangent: Prove: That the angle between the line and a chord is equal to the angle subtended by the chord in the alternate segment. or That the line is perpendicular to the radius at point of contact on circle. 8.5 That two triangles are congruent: Prove: A case of... (Side/Side/Side) or (Side/Angle/Side) or (Angle/Side/Angle) or (90°/Hypotenuse/Side) 6
PRACTICAL INVESTIGATIONS (Proposed)  It has been observed that learners learn and understand theorems better when they have investigated them practically.  An educator has to develop worksheets with instructions that needs learners to draw, measure, observe and then make conclusions bases on their findings.  By so doing, learners will not memorize the theorem statements without understanding them.  This method or strategy is found to be effective on avoiding copying amongst learners and motivate participation of all learners.  Each learner will have his or her own measurements but the findings and conclusions will be the same in the whole class.  It is therefore recommended that after each worksheet a number of exercises for application of the findings must be given to learners.

The learner must be able to able to define and use trigonometry ratios (sinβ, cosβ, and tanβ) in the right-angled triangles to:  solve problems in two dimensions by constructing and interpreting geometric and trigonometric models (examples to include scale drawings, maps and building plans)  derive and use the values of the trigonometric ratios (in surd form where applicable) of special angles 30˚,45˚ and 60˚. 64
 derive and use the following identities: sinβ tanβ = cosβ and sin2 β + cos2 β = 1 .  derive and use the reduction formulae for: sin(90° ± β) , cos(90° ± β) , sin(180° ± β) , cos(180° ± β), tan(180° ± β) , sin(360° ± β) , cos(360° ± β), tan(360° ± β) , sin(−β) , cos(−β) , tan(−β)  Determine the general solution of trigonometric equations (NB: Finding the solution both algebraically and graphically) 2. The learner must be able to establish and apply the sine, cosine, and area rules in both right angled triangles and non-right-angled triangle. 3. Grade 11 trigonometric functions will be examined:  Relationship between the graphs  Points of intersection graphically/ algebraically. GENERAL HINTS FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING Learners usually have trouble with the following: 1. ∠′ s > 360° eg. tan480° = −tan60°. 2. Negative angles e.g. sin (-135˚) = -sin45˚. 3. Co-functions e.g. sin76˚ = cos14˚ and cos(90-2x) = sin 2x 4. Show all intermediate steps when using reduction formulae in simplifications, 1  e.g. sin210˚ = sin(180° + 30°) = −sin 30° = − 2 etc. 5. Educators should point out the difference between proving trig. expressions equal and solving trig. equations. 6. Careful use of () and LCD in simplification of trig. expressions. 7. Teach learners to read carefully and to correctly interpret questions, e.g. restrict the domain: 𝑥 ∈ [180°; 360°] 8. Careless use of the theorem of Pythagoras in values involving square roots. Teach correct application of the sign of x and per quadrant. 9. Learners need practice finding general solutions to trig. equations and must be exposed to different types and levels of this type of questions. 10. Learners need to be taught how to use the diagram sheet and calculator. 11. In 2D problems, the attitude and perception of this type of problem-solving needs to be changed by getting learners to understand and apply their knowledge and to see examples in real life, e.g. 2D models like of a flagpole, wire/string, a ladder leaning against a wall outside your class to get students to calculate the lengths of sides and angles. 65
 Educators needs to emphasize that it is vital that learners should find the length of a common side of 2D problems to help with the solution.  Use different letters to name triangles instead of traditional ABC. 12. “Hence” or “otherwise” terminology must be explained to learners. 13. Learners should memorize the different conditions for the use of each rule:  Sine Rule is used when you have a known “couple” , e.g. side a and angle A  Cosine Rule is used when you have SAS, a side, an included angle and another side.  The variation of the Cos Rule is utilized when you are given 3 known sides.  Area Rule also operates on the known SAS principle. 14. Teachers need to show the purpose of and using the general solution. Solutions can be shown by means of a diagram. Educators need to extend the use of complementary ratios in problem solving. 15. All candidates should be shown how to use calculators to sketch graphs, once they understand the influence of each parameter. 16. Candidates must be taught to estimate answers from graphs. 17. Learners should be able to sketch and interpret two graphs together and respond to questions which have to do with ≤ and ≥ (usage of interval notation, set builder notation) and other function questions. 18. Practice drawing graphs involving all kinds of transformations, [vertical and horizontal: shifts, shrinks, stretches and reflections – meaning the effects of a, k, p and q, in a question involving, for example, y = asink(𝑥 + p) + q. 19. Learners must get use a diagram sheet if provided. 20. Learners should be able to link reduction formulae to equations and quadrants.
