METHODOLOGY ie)
e The teacher leads and facilitates discussiong@h
o What a quadratic sequence is? r@)
— Quadratic number sequen: A sequences whose second difference is constant, and the
first differences form ear sequence.
— Their general ter: T) is given in the form T;, = an? + bn +c.
o How the general term ced sequence is derived?
— In general, term of a quadratic number pattern is given by 7, = an? +bn+c.
If we usi this formula to calculate the first four terms, we get:
Ti +bh(lI)+c=at+b+e
7, 00y +b(2)+c=4a+2b+e
T; = a(3)° +b(3)+c=9a+3b+c
T, =a(4)? +b(4)+c=16a+4b+c
Let us calculate the first and second differences between the terms:
4dat+2b+e 9a+3b+ce l6a+4b+e
Note that the first term is a+b+c, the first of the first differences is 3a+, and the constant
second difference is 2a.
Downloaded from Stanmorephysics.com
In a quadratic number pattern:
First term =a+b+c
First of the first differences = 3a+b
Second difference = 2a
2
General term: 7,, = an” +bn+c
o Itis also worth noting that quadratic sequences will have a minimum or maximum value, since
they assume the shape of a parabola when sketched.
e Worked examples:
1. Given the quadratic number pattern: 4; 9; 18; 31; ...
(a) Determine the next term (7; ). (b) Determine the n-th tree term).

Ty =2n? —n+3
2. Determine the maximum value of a quadratic sequence given by T,, = —n? + 26n — 170.
Solution:
By completing a square, 7,, = —n? + 26n — 170 = —(n — 13)? — 1, which implies that the
maximum value of the sequence is —1.
Also, by differentiation, the maximum term of the sequence can be determined, i.e.
From T, = —n? + 26n — 170
> T'n = —2n+ 26
At maximum —2n + 26 = 0
Thus, n = 13, which means that 7,3 is the maximum term.
Finally, T,3 = —(13)? + 26(13) — 170 = -1

ERRORS/MISCONCEPTIONS/PROBLEM AREAS
Learners sometimes confuse the general term of an arithmetic sequence with the general term of a
geometric sequence.
METHODOLOGY
e The teacher leads and facilitates discussions on:
o What an arithmetic sequence is?
— Arithmetic number sequences are sequences in which the difference between
consecutive(successive) terms is constant.
o How the general term of an arithmetic sequence is derived?
— Algebraically, an arithmetic sequence is written as follows:
Ty =a
Tz =a+d
T3 =at+td+d=a+2d
T, =at+d+d+d=a+3d
T; =at+d+d+d+d=a+4d=a+(5—-1)d
Toe =atd+d+d+d+d=a+5d=a+(6—-1)d
T, = a + (n — 1)d, the general term, where:
Ty, is term number n (N only) in the sequence,
a is the first term,
d = Ty, — Tn_ is the constant difference between successive terms, and,
Downloaded from Stanmorephysics.com
n is the position of the term in the sequence, which can only be a natural
number.
o Since the difference between terms is constant, it can be concluded that if three consecutive
terms are given, as shown below:
T; ; T2 ; Tz;
NY
T, —Ty , T3 — Tz
Then, it follows that T, — T, = T3 — T2. This can be applied to any three successive terms of
any arithmetic sequence.
o The general term, T;,, can also be used to determine the value of n, the position of any term in
an arithmetic sequence.
Worked examples:
1. Consider the arithmetic sequence: x ; 4x+5 ; 10x-5;...
1.1 Determine the value of x.
1.2 Write the numerical values of the first three terms of the sequence.
1.3. Determine the general term of the sequence.
1.4 What is the twentieth term of the sequence?
1.5 Which term of the sequence will be equal to 1945.
Solutions:

METHODOLOGY
e The teacher leads and facilitates discussions on:
o What a geometric sequence is?
— Geometric number sequences are sequences in which the ratio between
consecutive(successive) terms is common.
o How the general term of a geometric sequence is derived?
— The general term for a geometric sequence can be derived as follows:
Ty =a

a is the first term,
Tr
r= is the common ratio between successive terms, and,
n-1

n is the position of the term in the sequence, which can only be a natural
number.
o Since the ratio between terms is common, it can be shown that if three consecutive terms are
given:
T, ; T, } Tz 5
Tp T3
Ty , Tz
Then, it implies that 7 = > This can be applied to any three successive terms of any

o The general term, 7, can also be used to determine the value of n, the position of any term in
any geometric sequence.

Discuss concepts of similarity from earlier grades
Two polygons are similar if they have the same shape but not necessarily the same size.
Two conditions must both be satisfied for two polygons to be similar:
(a) The corresponding angles must be equal.
(b) The ratio of the corresponding sides must be in the same proportion.

(Considering Similar Triangles highlight....
With similar triangles, only one of the two conditions needs to be true in order for the two triangles to be
similar. This is proved in the theorem below:
THEOREM : Equiangular Triangles are similar
Given A ABC and ADEF withA = D;B = E;C =F
AB __ AC __ BC
B c
Proof : Mark off X on AB and Y on AC such
That AX = DE and AY = DF. Construct XY
In A AXY and ADEF
1.AX=DE (construction)
2. AY = DF (construction)
3.A =D (given)
. AAXY = ADEF (SAS)
now AXY =E_ but E=B (given)
AXY=B
= XY // BC (correponding 2's =)
Ww AB _ AC (line // one side of A)

e Learners do not adopt any strategy in answering or approaching Euclidean riders.
METHODOLOGY
Discuss the approaches below with learners.
HOW TO GO ABOUT SOLVING A GEOMETRY RIDER
1. What knowledge must you have?
Know all terminology associated with Euclidean Geometry relevant to the School Curriculum.
Be able to state ALL Theorems/ Converses of Theorems/ Axioms and Corollaries AND be able to
draw a rough diagram to describe every statement. Pages 2 to 5 of this supplement indicate the
important theorems and corollaries that must be learnt and illustrations that should be remembered.
e Know how to write reasons in abbreviated form for the formal writing of proofs. Approved reasons
are found in the Examination Guideline
2. What approach to use?
e When you see the Diagram (involving a circle) and see the information provided use what we 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!

Downloaded from Stanmorephysics.com
e Use Colour Pencils (Maximum of 3 colours). This is particularly important when proving triangles
similar.
e Always remember the order of questions is critical. Invariably what is done in a preceding question
is vital to solve following questions.
e Remember correct writing of the solution is as important as solving the question itself.
3. How to Prove...
1) That lines are Parallel :
Prove: Alternate angles equal or
Corresponding angles equal or
Co-interior angles supplementary.
2) That a quadrilateral is Cyclic :
Prove: That a pair of opposite angles are supplementary or
The exterior angle is equal to the interior opposite angle or
The angles in the same segment are equal.
3) That a chord is a diameter:
Prove: That the angle subtended by the chord on the circumference is a right angle.
The line between the chord and the tangent is a right angle.
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.
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) That two triangles are similar
Prove: A case of .... The two triangles are equiangular or The sides are in proportion.

1. From the formula of cos(@ — f) derive the formula of cos(a + /)
cos(a + #) =cos(a —(—f)
.. cos[(a@ —(—)] = cosa cos(—f) + sin a sin(—f)

2. From the formula of cos(a — f) derive the formula of sin(a + £)
sin(a + 8) = cos[90° — (a + f)]
= cos[(90° — a) — 2]
=cos(90° — a) cos # + sin(90° — a)sin B
=sin acos#+cosasin B
3. From the formula of cos(a — f) derive the formula of sin(a — £)
sin(a — 8) =cos[90° — (a — £)]
= cos[(90°- a) + f]
= cos[(90° — a) — (—£)]

METHODOLOGY
The teacher will facilitate the Derivation of sin2@ and cos 2a@
Derivation of sin 2a
It was shown that sin(a +#)=sin a cos 8 —cosa sin B.lf a= B,
Then, sin2a@=sin(a + a)
= sina cosa@ +cosa@ sina
- sin2a@=2sin a cosa
Derivation of cos 2a
It was shown that cos(@ + £)=cos a cos B —sina sin B. If a= B,
Then, cos2a@=cos(a@ + a)
= cosa cosa —sina sina
COS 2a@ = cos* a — sin? a
cos 2a can also be written as: cos 2a@ = cos* a — sin? @
=(1-sin? a@)—sin? @ (Square Identity)
cos 2a@=1-2sin? a
And, cos 2a = cos? a — sin? a
= cos* a —(1-—cos? a)
cos 2a@=2cos* a —1

METHODOLOGY
SUMMARY
Solving Two-Dimensional Problems using the Sine, Cosine and Area Rules.
e The sine-rule can be used when the following in known in the triangle:
- more than 1 angle and side
- two sides and an angle(not included)
sinA_ sinB — sinC
a b Cc
e The cosine rule can be used when the following is known of the triangle
- three sides and one included angle
- a*=b? +c? —2bccosA
-__b? =a? +c? — 2ac cosB
84
Downloaded from Stanmorephysics.com
- ¢c? =a? +b? — 2ac CosC
e If the lengths of the three sides are given, the formula can be written in the following form.
To find A,B OR C respectively:
2 n2_ 92 21 2 _p2 2 2 2
Cos A= bac =a CosB= 2 4° b Cosc=3 +b =c

e The area of a triangle can be found when at least two sides an included angle known
- Areaofa triangle ABC = ; absinA
- Areaofa triangle ABC = ; bcsinB
- Areaofa triangle ABC = ; absinC
e The area rule is half the product of any two sides and an included angle
Study Tips:
Sin Rule
In a solution of triangles question, use the sin rule to find a missing side or angle only if you have
either two angles and one side, or two sides and an angle that is opposite one of the known sides.
(Note: if the side opposite the given angle is the smaller of the 2 sides, there are 2 solutions)
Area Rule
To use the area rule you need to know 3 things: 2 sides and an included angle.

Cos Rule
In a solution of triangle questions use the cos rule
- To find the side opposite a given angle when we have 2 sides and an included angle
