Important Information to Remember
This section is always question 1 in the final paper and is weighting 25 marks. This section
includes factorisation and using quadratic formula to solve for x, inequalities and simultaneous
equations.
Solving quadratic equations by completing the square will not be examined.
Solving quadratic equations using the substitution method (k-method) is examinable.
Equations involving surds that lead to a quadratic equation are examinable.
Solution of non-quadratic inequalities should be seen in the context of functions.
Nature of the roots will be tested intuitively with the solution of quadratic equations and in all the prescribed
functions.
Examples:
Solve for x in each of the following:
1. 2x2 + 10x = 12 2. (x 5)(x + 2) = 0
3. x(2x + 3) = 7 4. (3x 2)2 3x

The reciprocal ratios cosec θ, sec θ and cot θ can be used by candidates in the answering of problems but will
not be explicitly tested.
The focus of trigonometric graphs is on the relationships, simplification and determining points of intersection
by solving equations, although characteristics of the graphs should not be excluded.

10. STATISTICS
Important Information to Remember
Candidates should be encouraged to use the calculator to calculate standard deviation, variance and the
equation of the least squares regression line.
The interpretation of standard deviation in terms of normal distribution is not examinable.
Candidates are expected to identify outliers intuitively in both the scatter plot as well as the box and whisker
diagram.
In the case of the box and whisker diagram, observations that lie outside the interval (lower quartile – 1,5 IQR
; upper quartile + 1,5 IQR) are considered to be outliers. However, candidates will not be penalised if they did
not make use of this formula in identifying outliers.

11. EUCLIDEAN GEOMETRY
Important Information to Remember
Measurement can be tested in the context of optimisation in calculus.
Composite shapes could be formed by combining a maximum of TWO of the stated shapes.
The following proofs of theorems are examinable:
• The line drawn from the centre of a circle perpendicular to a chord bisects the chord;
• 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);
• The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary;
• 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;
• that a line drawn parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally;
• equiangular triangles are similar.
Corollaries derived from the theorems and axioms are necessary in solving riders:
• Angles in a semi-circle
• Equal chords subtend equal angles at the circumference
https://tvetpapers.co.za
https://ultradeep.co.za
17
• Equal chords subtend equal angles at the centre
• In equal circles, equal chords subtend equal angles at the circumference
• In equal circles, equal chords subtend equal angles at the centre.
• The exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is equal to the interior opposite angle of the quadrilateral.
• If the exterior angle of a quadrilateral is equal to the interior opposite angle of the quadrilateral, then the
quadrilateral is cyclic.
• Tangents drawn from a common point outside the circle are equal in length.
