Study Notes [Practice 15] p6 - Class Discussion

In class, we discussed the working presented by various groups. 

I've included below the explanation for questions; and the solution for (d) and (e) - which require more attention (a little more 'complex' than the rest). There are several ways to approach these 2 parts.

Question (a)

• LINK to clip to explain

Question (b)

• LINK to clip to explain

Question (c)

• LINK to clip to explain

Question (d) There are 2 ways to factorise the expression

• LINK - to factorise without removing the common factor first
• LINK - to remove the common factor first

Question (e) There are several ways to approach this question.

Primarily... to extract the common factor across all terms first OR doing that as the last step (which is an often forgotten step). 

Included here are clips that demonstrates 2 ways to factorise by extracting the common factor first.

• LINK - involving reorganising the terms
• LINK - recognising "1" as a common factor for one of the pairs of the terms. [New!]

🎉 It's PI π day!

Someone claims that by performing the operation (shown on the right) will result values that converge to π . Click HERE to watch the clip.

With our limited knowledge (as we have not learnt theorems, complex concepts, etc. yet), one way to check this out is using spreadsheet.

So far, we have learnt how to copy cells and insert formula into cells. 

Let's try to check the claim with the skills and knowledge we already know.

Make a copy of the GSheet and start trying to use the formula.
