STATEMENT OF INQUIRY Relationships between the various representations of numbers help us to quantify the world around us. The development of patterns and relationships allows use to generalise our number system. Architects and Engineers must use finite resources responsibly when designing new structures. The development of patterns and relationships allows use to generalise our number system.

ASSESSMENT

Relationships: • Quantity • Representation

Basic Number Skills: • Rational Numbers • Significant Figures • Ratio and Proportion (Chapters 1, 3)

Mathematical take home Assignment and in class Investigation component (Criterion C, D and B)

Carry out the four operations with rational numbers and integers, using efficient mental and written strategies and appropriate digital technologies. Solve a range of problems involving rates and ratios, with and without digital technologies. Extend and apply the distributive law to the expansion of algebraic expressions. Factorise algebraic expressions by identifying numerical factors. Simplify algebraic expressions involving the four operations. Investigate Pythagoras’ Theorem and its application to solving simple problems involving right angled triangles.
