GCE-N Level 2011 Mathematics Paper 2

My dearest 4C and 4D pupils,

Please focus your attention to the following topics:

(Note: this is just a guide to help you to be more focussed in your revision. It is in no way a guarantee match of Thursday's paper)


To help you further, I will be using the following colour codes: blue - very likely topic, red - no need to study already

VERY LIKELY TOPICS


1. Prime factorisation, H.C.F. and L.C.M.

2. Very large and very small numbers such as mega/million, giga/billion, tera/trillion, micro, nano, pico.

3. Map scales.

4. Functions and Graphs – graphs of quadratic functions and their properties, sketching quadratic graphs including maximum/minimum point, line of symmetry, where the graphs cut the x an y axes, AND for sure one big question on drawing graph on graph paper and finding information from the graph for example estimation of gradient of the curve by drawing a tangent, etc.


5. Simultaneous equations.


6. Properties of a circle – angle and symmetry properties of circles


7. Pythagoras’ Theorem and Trigonometry – use of Pythagoras’ Theorem, sine and cosine rules, bearings, angle of elevation/depression, area of triangle = half a b sin C


8. Mensuration – area and volume, most likely the object is circular such as cylinder, cone, sphere, etc., use of radian measure of angle
9. Statistics – cumulative frequency, range, lower quartile, upper quartile, interquartile range, box-and-whisker plots, mean and standard deviation, histogram



NO NEED TO STUDY LE
Below are the topics that you do not have to study anymore:
1. indices

2. direct and indirect proportion: y = kx where k is a constant type of question

3. speed, distance, time.


4. Algebraic fractions i.e. fractions involving algebra.

5. Number patterns.

6. Change subject of a formula.

7. Coordinate Geometry : y = mx + c

8. simple interest and compound interest.

9. Angle Properties of Polygons: sum of interior angles = (n-2)180 degrees, sum of exterior angles = 360 degrees.

10. Constructions.


11. arc length and sector area.

12. stem & leaf diagram, median and mode.




Hope that this analysis will help you to be more focussed in your revision.


Do your best, let GOD do the rest.






Yours sincerely,


Mr Ng Song Seng
