Description

In addition to consolidating subject content from key stage 3, pupils should be taught to:

  • interpret and use fractional {and negative} scale factors for enlargements
  • {describe the changes and invariance achieved by combinations of rotations, reflections and translations}
  • identify and apply circle definitions and properties, including: centre, radius, chord, diameter, circumference, tangent, arc, sector and segment
  • {apply and prove the standard circle theorems concerning angles, radii, tangents and chords, and use them to prove related results}
  • construct and interpret plans and elevations of 3D shapes
  • interpret and use bearings
  • calculate arc lengths, angles and areas of sectors of circles
  • calculate surface areas and volumes of spheres, pyramids, cones and composite solids
  • apply the concepts of congruence and similarity, including the relationships between lengths, {areas and volumes} in similar figures
  • apply Pythagoras’ Theorem and trigonometric ratios to find angles and lengths in right-angled triangles {and, where possible, general triangles} in 2 {and 3} dimensional figures
  • know the exact values of sin θ and cos θ for θ = 0°, 30°, 45°, 60° and 90°; know the exact value of tan θ for θ = 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°
  • {know and apply the sine rule, a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC , and cosine rule, a2 = b2 + c2 - 2bc cos A, to find unknown lengths and angles}
  • {know and apply Area = 1/2 ab sin C to calculate the area, sides or angles of any triangle}
  • describe translations as 2D vectors
  • apply addition and subtraction of vectors, multiplication of vectors by a scalar, and diagrammatic and column representations of vectors; {use vectors to construct geometric arguments and proofs}

Thank you for visiting Commtap.

Commtap needs £5,000 per year to cover its basic running costs, we only have £1,000 left. Please make a donation now.

Please read this message as it is extremely important.

  1. Visitor donations mean we can continue to host over 1,000 free activities to support speech, language, and communication development.
  2. Visitor donations mean we can continue to provide free resources to address a wide range of communication needs, including limited speech or language, interaction challenges, and needs associated with conditions such as developmental language disorder, autism, and cerebral palsy.
  3. Visitor donations mean we can continue to provide resources to support the work of speech and language therapists, teachers, teaching assistants, parents, and carers.

It costs £5,000 a year to cover Commtap's basic day-to-day running costs. We have £1,000 left.

Right now, less than 1% of Commtap's visitors pay anything towards the running of the site.

We know that not everyone is able to afford to pay to access these resources, however, if you can, please make a minimum donation of £10 to keep the site going.
