STATEMENT OF INQUIRY Modelling using generalised relationships helps us to represent our world.

Semester 2 Examination (Criteria A, C)

Solve worded linear equations using algebraic techniques.

Relationships:

Formulae and Problem Solving



Equivalence

(Chapter 9)



Generalisation



Model



Representation

Identify corresponding, alternate and co- interior angles when two straight lines are crossed by a transversal.

Orientation in space and time

Logic is a powerful tool for justifying what we discover through measurement and observation.

Logic:

Geometry: 

Parallel line angles Angle sum, triangles, quadrilaterals



Measurement



Justification



Investigate conditions for two lines to be parallel and solve simple numerical problems using reasoning.

FOUR

(Chapter 10)

Demonstrate that the angle sum of a triangle is o 180 and use this to find the angle sum of a quadrilateral.

Identify complementary events and use the sum of probabilities to solve problems.

Identities and relationships

Establishing patterns in the natural world can help in

Relationships:

Probability: 

Probability, Venn diagrams



Change

understanding relationships.

Describe events using language of “at least”, exclusive “or” (A or B but not both), inclusive “or” (A or B or both) and “and”.



Equivalence

(Chapter 14)



Model



Justification

Represent events in two-way tables and Venn diagrams and solve related problems.



Patterns
