Discover circles and discs, learn how to calculate their perimeters and areas, then explore central angles and inscribed angles and their properties.
Trigonometry of a right-angled triangle
Find out how the sides of a right-angled triangle and the sine, cosine and tangent ratios can be used to calculate unknown lengths and angles.
Thales’ theorem
Learn how to identify a Thales’ theorem scenario, calculate a missing length and prove that two lines are parallel using the converse.
Pythagoras’s theorem
Discover the relationship between the sides of a right-angled triangle and learn how to work out a missing length or check whether a triangle is right-angled.

The second degree: canonical form
Learn how to convert a quadratic trinomial into standard form to instantly identify the vertex of the parabola, solve equations and analyse signs with ease.
Systems of two equations
Learn how to solve systems of two equations with two unknowns using substitution and elimination, and discover how these methods can be used to model real-life situations.
First-degree inequalities
Learn how to solve linear inequalities with one unknown and plot their solutions on a graduated line, whilst avoiding the pitfall of changing the direction of the inequality.
Formulating problems as equations
Learn how to turn a word problem into an equation, then solve it to find the answer hidden within the text.
First-degree equations
Learn how to recognise, write and solve linear equations step by step, whilst avoiding the sign-related pitfalls that cost pupils the most marks at secondary school.
