Any real-world measurement problems
involve a level of approximation, as do
problems where you have to work out if
you have enough money, or have catered
enough food, estimated times of arrivals,
estimates for building materials and costs
of doing different jobs.
Encourage students to share ideas and
discuss their own methods of deciding.
Answers will vary, but could include that
estimating allows you find errors and
judge the size an answer should be, avoid
mistakes due to button push or place
value errors.

There are many possible answers for each
value. For example, (a) could be 92 or
9(2 + 7) or 8 × 10 + 1. Let students use
calculators to check that each other’s clues
work.

Student answers will vary based on what
they already know and feel confident
doing.
Some students will select the things they
are less confident in, but other may select
things they enjoy doing or are good at.
Encourage them to say why they have
made each selection.

A perfect number is one where the sum of
its factors, including 1, but excluding the
number itself, is that number. 6 is perfect
number because 1 + 2 + 3 = 6.
A palindromic number is a ‘symmetrical’
number like 16461 that remains the same
when its digits are reversed.
A narcissistic number is one that is the
sum of its own digits each raised to the
power of the number of digits,
e.g. 371 = 33 + 73 + 13.

If you write prime backwards you get emirp.
An emirp is a prime number that when you
write it backwards gives you a different prime.
For example, 17 and 71. The first few emirps
are: 13, 17, 31, 37, 71, 73, 79, 97, 107, 113,
149, 157.

Why do mathematicians find prime numbers
exciting?
1 a Every even integer greater than 2 can be
written as the sum of two prime numbers.
b The weak conjecture is that every odd
integer greater than 5 can be written as
the sum of three odd prime numbers.
Harald Helfgott’s proof uses complicated
mathematics to prove that this is correct.
His proof is largely accepted by the
mathematics community but they also
acknowledge (as does he) that the strong
3
The prime number theorem shows that
prime numbers become less common as
they get bigger using the rate at which
prime numbers occur.
Yes. Euclid (325–265BCE) proved there
are infinitely many prime numbers. This
proof is known as Euclid’s theorem.

Zaf changed decimals to fractions to
easily divide by 2. Marwan cancelled
before rounding to have fewer numbers to
deal with.
Once you have rounded, you are
calculating exact values, so even if 2 and 3
are rounded values, 2 + 3 is equal to 5, not
approximately equal to 5.
Possible examples:
a Overestimate the cost of buying several
items to make sure you definitely have
enough money
b Underestimate the size of a doorway to
make sure you have enough room to move
furniture though it.

There are different options, But in
general, if you let one number be x, the
consecutive number is x + 1. The sum of
the numbers is x + x + 1 = 2x + 1. Any
multiple of 2 is even, so if you add 1, it
will be odd.
Using the same argument
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 3x + 3.
3x can be odd or even (depending on the
value of x) so the answer can be either
odd or even.

They’re all prime numbers.
When n = p, n2 + n + p becomes n(n + 2);
in other words, it has factors n and n + 2,
so is not prime.

What is the point of algebra?
Students’ own work. There are many accessible
examples that students could use, for example,
conversion formulae, using algebra to find break
even points (finance and economics), calculating
doses of medicine based on person’s mass or other
factors, working out trajectories in sports (such
as basketball or snooker), using BMI and other
factors to work out health and fitness and so on.

Magic squares
1 No, the sum of numbers in a 3 × 3 magic
square is always 3 times the centre number.
In this case, that would be 12a + 15y for each
row, column and diagonal and they do not all
sum to that.

so 2n + 1 must be odd.
p + 2 = 2n + 1 + 2

Diagrams provided as answers are NOT TO
SCALE and are to demonstrate construction lines
or principles only.
Exercise 3.1
1
Getting started
Each student will produce a different spider
diagram depending on their prior knowledge.
The information shown might include facts about
angles in triangles and quadrilaterals, names and
properties of special triangles and quadrilaterals,
how to measure lines and angles, and so on.
You can ask students to complete their own and
then to compare with others and add any points
they have missed out (but know). You could also
use the student contributions to develop a class
spider diagram, which will give you some idea of
what students already know so that you can focus
the work on the new concepts in this chapter.

(Hexagonal) prism
Yes, if the base is a hexagon, the prism
has six rectangular faces.
It speeds up the process and allows
different members of the team to put
pieces together on one model to check for
overlaps/errors and gives a view of the
finished process. Building information
modelling (BIM) allows them to strip the
model down to beams and walls so that
they can decide where to install or place
infrastructural elements.
Computer models can be moved, changed
and rescaled as needed digitally. It is
easy to share and collaborate ideas and
different members of the team can work
on the design at the same time.

This protractor is able to measure angles
from 0° to 360°.
Student’s own answer. Something like:
ensure that the 0°/360° marking of the
protractor is aligned with one of the arms of
the angle you are measuring, and the vertex
of the angle is aligned with the centre of the
protractor. Whether you use the inner or
outer scale will be determined by which arm
you aligned with 0. Use the scale that gives
an angle <180°.
You would use the scale that gives you an
angle >180°.

Angle UVP + angle PVQ + angle WVQ =

Therefore a + b + c = 180°, so the interior
angles of a triangle sum to 180°
Angle RQV = 180° − c
a + b = 180° − c = angle RQV
Therefore the exterior angle of a triangle
is equal to the sum of the two interior

12% × 650 or 650 × 12% (the other
methods involve converting the percentage
and don’t use the percentage function, for
example, 0.12 × 650, 12 ÷ 100 × 650,
650 ÷ 100 × 12).
You are dealing with percentages here, so
you include the sign.
Students will compare calculators and
probably discover that they don’t all work
in exactly the same way.

13 Students’ reasoning may vary.
a No, on day 8 the points will have doubled
but on day 7 they will have halved.
b Increasing by 40% and then 50% as the
increase is cumulative, so you are actually
increasing 140% by 50%.
c It is cheaper to take the 50% discount.
For example, if 400 MB of data cost $100,
then you would pay $50 for 400 MB, if
you take the extra 50% free, then you get
600 MB for $100 and this means you pay
$50 for only 300 MB.

Consider this as a red/black triangle on
top of a yellow/white triangle. The base
of each triangle is the same but the height
of the white/yellow triangle is twice the
height of the red/black triangle, so its area
will be twice as big. Therefore the area of
the red/black triangle is half of the area
of the yellow/white triangle which means
that the area of the yellow and white
region of the flag is the same as the area
of the red and black region.

1, 2 Students’ individual work.
It is sensible to choose ‘higher’ for any number
where more than half the numbers are higher
(so any decimal between 0 and 0.5). It is
sensible to choose ‘lower’ for any number
where more than half the numbers are lower
(so any decimal between 0.5 and 1).
Talking about probability
1 Probability only tells us the expected, or ‘on
average’ proportion of ‘true’ answers. It does
not tell us exact proportions.
2
The three possible outcomes are not
necessarily equally likely.
3
Statistical experiments always give a range of
outcomes. Different outcomes are possible, so
they also have a non-zero probability.
4
Any random experiment like this can produce
unexpected outcomes, because each of the
combinations of red and blue socks is possible.
We should only give probabilities for outcomes
of experiments that have not already been
completed. It makes more sense to talk about
the probability that it rains tomorrow.

Students’ own description of a number
sequence.
The term in position n, in other words, the
term in any position.
Next term is 11 because you subtract 4
each time.
Yes, once you know the rule for a
sequence, you can use it to work out
the value of the term in any position.
In this sequence: Tn = 27 − 4(n − 1),
so T20 = 27 − 4(20 − 1) = −49.

Fibonacci patterns
1 a The number of clockwise and the number
of anticlockwise spirals will often
be consecutive terms of a Fibonacci
sequence.
b Students will need to physically count
and keep track of the sections they have
counted to find the pattern.
2
There are many examples including seeds on a
sunflower, sections on the skin of a pineapple,
the arrangement of leaves on the stems of
plants. An online search will give a selection
of answers.

a
b
An investigation will show that many
artists, including Salvador Dali and
Leonardo da Vinci, often produced work
using this ratio. It can also been seen in the
relationships between height and width
in buildings, for example in the Acropolis
and the Great Pyramid at Giza. The
golden ratio is also used to space out facial
features. Advertising logos and visually
appealing layouts often reflect the golden
ratio.
In simple terms, the golden ratio can
be worked out using the dimensions
of a rectangle where the ratio a : a + b
is equivalent to b : a. There are many
examples of diagrams that show this.

The subscript n + 1 means the term after
un, so this rule means that to find the term
in a sequence, you have to add 2, to the
current term (un). So, if the term is 7, then

The set of rational numbers and the set of
irrational numbers are both infinite sets. But
the set of rational numbers is ‘countable’
whereas the set of irrational numbers is
‘uncountable’. This might suggest that there are
more irrational numbers than rational numbers.
The term ‘countable’ does not mean finite.
In this context we mean that, if you tried to
pair up every rational number with exactly
one irrational number, you would have a lot of
irrational numbers left over that you couldn’t
pair up but no rational numbers would be
upaired.
5
Students’ own answers. Example: An
‘imaginary number’ is a quantity of the
form ix, where x is a real number___
and i is__the
positive square root of −1, e.g. √ − 3 = i√ 3 .

No. Imagine a straight road with a straight
footbridge crossing above it. Both the road and
the bridge follow a straight line path, but they do
not cross because there is vertical distance between
them.

Discussion
The two numbers still multiply to give the constant
term, but no longer add to give the coefficient of x
because they will be multiplied by the coefficients
of x in the brackets.
For example, (2x + 1)(3x + 2) = 6x2 + 4x + 3x + 2
= 6x2 + 7x + 2. The 1 and 2 multiply to give the
constant term of 2, but they do not add to the give
the coefficient of x (which is 7). This is because the
1 and 2 are multiplied by 2x and 3x respectively.

All the sets of numbers are Pythagorean
triples. They all satisfy the relationship
a2 + b2 = c2.
Other odd values of a also generate
Pythagorean triples.
When a = 1 the other values are 0 and 1.
These values satisfy the relationship
a2 + b2 = c2, but they are not a
Pythagorean triple because 0 is not a
positive integer.

All the angles on any square are 90°, so all
corresponding angles are equal.
All squares have four equal sides, so the
ratio of corresponding sides will always be
equal.
The ratio of corresponding sides of
different rectangles will not always be
equal.
Circles may be different sizes, but they
are all identical in shape, so are therefore
similar to each other.
All regular shapes are similar. For
example, all regular pentagons are similar
to each other. Irregular shapes do not
behave in the same way.

Since triangle FAB and FED are congruent:
Angle FAB = angle FED and that makes
triangle CAE a right angled isosceles triangle.
It follows that AC − BC = EC − DC,
so BC = CD.
BF = DF (corr sides of congruent triangles)
Therefore BFCD is a kite (two pairs of
adjacent equal sides).
6
The two turns are the same so all the
corresponding angles in the triangles must be
the same. Since they both walk 1000 metres
before turning then all three corresponding
side lengths must be the same and so the
triangles are congruent.

He has used the ‘middle’ value of the ordered
list. This is called the median.
5
2
Most of the numbers are fairly close to the
value given by Rohan, so it is reasonable.
Mode = none; mean = 96.4; median = 103
He will choose the median because it’s the
highest.

Jess has not arranged the times in order but
has picked the middle value in the list. She has
considered the position only and not how the
value compares with the other values in the list.

For example, 3, 4, 4, 6, 8

Write the list in order and then take the

Mean = 3.22 metres
Range = 2.8 metres
6
It would not change, because the middle
number has not changed.
2
320 cm
160 cm
7
You can add the numbers up and divide by 7,
for example. This is called the mean. This can
be useful if you want the average to change
when any of the values change.
3
Mean = 322 cm
Range = 280 cm
They have been multiplied by 100.
The mean and range are both multiplied by
the same number as the original data.
4
Changing the units changes the numerical
value of both the mean and range. This means
that you can make any mean or range bigger
or smaller than any other just by changing
the units of either value. If you fix the units
for both sets of data, then you are comparing
‘like-for-like’.
5
If you add m to each value, you also add m to
the mean BUT the range remains unchanged.
Because the values are all m units larger, then
the overall mean will be the same m units
larger. But the range measures the difference
between the largest and smallest values, both
of which have increased by the same value and
so are the same distance apart.

spread out.
4.3 − 1.8 = 2.5 g
3.4 − 1.2 = 2.2 g
There are no extreme values, which means
that the range gives a sensible measure of
spread as well as the interquartile range.

Exercise 13.3
Answers will depend on students’ research.
Possible reasons are that 60 is a convenient
number because it has a lot of factors. It is
possible to count to 12 using the bones in
the fingers of one hand. So a base 60 system
might have come about by multiplying the
12 on one hand by the 5 fingers on the other.
Another possibility is that the number 60
comes from the length of a growing season
for certain crops. So, a year would be
approximately 6 × 60 days.
History appears to suggest that there
are 360 degrees in a circle because that is
approximately the number of days in a full
year. In reality, 360 is a very convenient
number because it has so many whole number
factors. This means a circle can be divided into
smaller parts without having to use fractions
in any way.

Shading the wanted region
Shading the wanted region for a single inequality
works well, but when there is more than one
inequality then it is more difficult because it
is hard to see the region that satisfies all the
inequalities since shaded regions overlap. Only the
region that is shaded for all the inequalities will
count as the wanted region.

Student C is correct.
Student A’s solution suggests that 1 cm
1 cm in the real world.
on the map is ______
50 000
This would mean the real world is smaller
than the map. Instead, student A needed
to use the fact that 1 cm on the map is
50 000 cm in the real world. Student A has
also converted cm to km incorrectly.
Student B found the distance 1 950 000 mm
correctly, but has converted to km
incorrectly. There are 1000 m in each km
and 1000 mm in each m. This means there
are 1 000 000 mm in 1 km, so the answer is
1.95 km.
It would also have 3000 seats, they would just
be smaller! It’s important to understand that
a scale model has exactly the same features in
the same numbers. They are just a different
size.

For angles of 30° and 60°, the value
opp(30°)
of _________ is 0.577 for all triangles.
adj(30°)
For right-angled triangles with angles A and B,
opp(A)
the value of _______ will be the same for any
adj(A)
angle A whatever the side lengths of the
triangle.
If you divide a different pair of sides the value
will be different, but for a given angle and a
given pair of sides the value will be the same
whatever the side lengths of the triangle.

It is likely to show positive correlation,
because temperatures are lower at higher
altitudes, so there would be greater snowfall
near the top of the mountain. There are lots
of other factors, such as the direction of the
prevailing wind, the gradient of each slope
and the overall climate of the region. The
correlation may be very weak; the points could
be scattered much more.
Students will come up with their own ideas,
but possible examples include:
The heights and masses of 100 people. This is
likely to be a positive correlation.
Temperature and sales of rain jackets. This
is likely to be a negative correlation, because
higher temperatures usually go with drier
weather.
Taking all of the schools in Japan, you could
plot the number of classrooms against the
number of miles from Mount Fuji. It is very
unlikely that these two values would show any
correlation.

Just because there is a correlation between two
variables, it does not mean that one of them
‘causes’ the other to change. In this situation
it is likely that higher temperatures will mean
that ice creams sell better, but also that more
people are on the beaches, leading to shark
attacks.

Student answers will depend on how much
they already know. They can use the key
words in this chapter, the glossary at the end
of the book, a dictionary or online sources
(such as Investopedia) to find the meanings of

Types of tax
Investigation
Answers will vary from country to country, but the
basic definitions of terms are:
a Value added tax – tax added at each stage of
a product’s lifespan as value is added, in other
words a consumption tax levied on a product
repeatedly at every point of sale.
b General sales tax – tax levied on goods when
they are sold at retail outlets, calculated as a
percentage of the value of the goods.
c Customs and excise duties – customs duties
are also called import taxes, they are levied
on good imported to a country to try and
protect local industry that makes the same
items; excise duties are indirect taxes on the
sale of locally made goods or services, such as
alcohol, tobacco and energy.
d Capital gains tax – a tax on profit from the
sale of assets.
e Estate duties – a tax on wealth or assets that
are inherited.
f Property taxes – rates and other taxes levied
on real estate.
g Air passenger tax – a charge levied on
passengers (often older than 16) who fly out
of different airports, varies from place.
h Corporate tax – direct tax on the income or
capital of some businesses.

Set A: all symmetrical about y, all pass
through origin (0, 0) and all ∪-shaped.
Set B: all symmetrical about y, all pass
through origin (0, 0) and all ∩-shaped.
Set C: all symmetrical about y and all
∪-shaped, all have a y-intercept.
Set A and B: main difference is the width
of the graph, Set C, main difference is the
y-intercept and that affects whether or not
graph has x-intercepts.
If the coefficient of x is . 0 (positive)
the graph is ∪-shaped, if the coefficient
is , 0 (negative) the graph is ∩ shaped.
The value of the coefficient also affects
the width of the graph. As the coefficient
increases, the graph becomes narrower.
i
a is the y-intercept.
ii For a . 0, the graph is shifted
vertically upwards by a units and the
turning point is above the x-axis.
If a , 0, the graph is moved a units

Suggested answer: The equation y = ax−1
can be written with positive indices
a
as y = __
x . This is the standard form of
a reciprocal graph and it will give a
hyperbola with two curves in opposite
quadrants. The equation y = ax−2 can be
a
written with positive indices as y = ___2 .
x
The range for this function is all positive
numbers, so the two curves of the graph
will be above the x-axis. If y = −ax−2,
a
the equation becomes y = − ___2 and the
x
range will be negative numbers, meaning
that the two curves will be below the
x-axis.

As a increases, the curve moves
further from the x-axis.
Negative values of a mean that the
curve is reflected in the x-axis.
Students’ sketches and notes will vary, but
the graph will be a reciprocal graph in the
first quadrant. Larger values of a move
the curve further from the origin and
negative values of a produce a reflection
in the x-axis.

Instructions will vary, but should include
determining whether the graph is
increasing or decreasing using the value of
a. If a is positive, the graph is decreasing;
if a is negative, the graph is increasing.
Use a + q to determine the y-intercept.
Work out the asymptote by finding the
line y = q.
If a , 0, the graph is below the asymptote
and if a . 0, the graph is above the
asymptote.

Draw the chords AD and BC. ADX and
BCX are angles in the same segment, so
they are equal. Similarly, angle DAX is the
same as angle CBX. AXD and BXC are
vertically opposite angles, so they are the
same, too. This means that both triangles
contain the same three angle and so they
are similar.

Any two angles drawn in the same
segment are equal, this means that you
can draw another angle in the alternate
segment, using the diameter as one of the
lines forming the angle and know that it is
still equal to y.
Triangle PAB is right angled as it is the
angle in a semicircle.
Angle APB must be 90 − y.
The angle between the diameter and a
tangent is 90, so 90 − y + x = 90, so x = y.

Angle BTC = 180° − 30° − (180° − 60°) = 30°
because angles in a triangle add up to 180°.
So angle TDC = 30° by the alternate segment
theorem.
CTD = 180° − 60° − 30° = 90° (angle sum in a
triangle)
So CD is diameter because the angle in the
segment is 90°.
3
CTD = 90°
So TDC = 180° − 90° − x = 90° − x
So by the alternate segment theorem
CTB = 90° − x
But BCT = 180° − x
So y + 180° − x + 90° − x = 180°
So 2x − y = 90°

They are vertically opposite angles.
Angles in the same segment
From parts (a) and (b), angle BXA =
angle DXC and angle XAB = angle XDC.
This means that angle ABX = angle DCX.
So all three angles are the same and the
triangles are similar.
Triangles ABX and DCX are similar so
the ratio of sides AX and BX is equal to

histogram shows non-overlapping class
intervals on the horizontal axis and the
frequency on the vertical axis. The frequency
polygon is plotted at the class midpoints and
shows the shape of the distribution.

Students’ ideas.
They both show the shape of the
distribution. In the histogram the larger
the area the greater the frequency for that
class interval, and in the stem-and-leaf
diagram the longer the leaves the greater
the frequency for that stem value.
When you have too many individual items
of data to list separately on a stem-andleaf diagram.

Body fat is too low for intense physical
activity.
No − the expectation is that soldiers are
physically active and therefore keep their
body fat at a satisfactory level.

Answers will vary depending on the data that
students collect.
Check that students measure time in seconds
and collect the raw data by experiment before
they organise it into a frequency distribution.
A suitable scale might have a wider class at the
start (0–15 seconds) and end (.50 seconds)
with varied intervals between those values.
Histograms could be drawn on graph paper to
make it easier to work with frequency density.

studies textbooks or in an atlas.

Greenland is the least densely populated
area on Earth with 0.0259 people/km2,
the Sahel area in Africa has a population
density of 2 people/km2. The most densely
populated places on Earth are usually
small islands. Macau, for example, has
19 737 people/km2 and Singapore has
8000 people/km2.
Small areas with lots of people will
automatically have a high population
density. Generally, though, high
population densities are linked to ‘pull
factors’ that attract people to live in a
particular area.
Population density is a simple relative
measure that doesn’t tell you how spread
out people are in the area mentioned,
so social scientists consider distribution
patterns as well. For example, Nepal has a
population density of 203 people per km2,
but Nepal is in the Himalaya, so people
are not evenly spread throughout the
country. In fact, the capital Kathmandu
has a population density of 19 726 people
per km2.
Examples will vary. A healthy coral reef
would be densely populated with marine
animals, but if the coral bleached and
died or there was a tsunami, the animals
that lived on the reef would move away.
Not generally in the modern world as
people tend to be limited in their choices
of moving or not. But worldwide, there
is a trend towards urbanisation as people
move to cities because they think the
conditions there will be good for them.
Similarly, there are examples where
Answers will vary.
a Ecologists study how increasing or
decreasing population density impacts
biodiversity and use of resources.
b Epidemiologists may study how quickly
infectious diseases spread in areas of high
population density.
c Planners may use population density to
make decisions about energy use and
supply, fibre and data connections needed
and transport links.

Inversely proportional; as one value
increases the other decreases.
Artery: 0.0016
Venae cavae: 0.000 316
Arteriole: 1
As the diameter decreases the resistance
increases. The power of four means that if
the diameter is halved the resistance will
becomes 16 times as great.
When the arteries become narrower the
resistance increases, which means that
blood flow is reduced and the risk of
heart-related health problems increases.

length of the shadow (L) changes.
H , where a is
The function for this is L = _____
tan a

2
Students may remember how to do this from
primary science lessons, but they can find out
how to use a shadow stick (basically a vertical
ruler) to develop a ratio that they can apply to
other objects. They may also discover online
calculators that use coordinates, time and
shadow length to determine heights.

Answers will vary depending on how
students view the shapes. There are
translations – the large coloured stars
are moved to the right (or left) along
a line. There are enlargements of both
the star shapes and the frames. There
are reflections – for example, the large
coloured stars could be reflections of each
other. The smaller shapes containing the
blue, orange, green and turquoise stars
bottom centre of the design could also be
rotations around the centre of the space in
the middle.
Answers will vary, but could include
translating the larger shapes with the
coloured stars down to fit the spaces in
the bottom row, or reflecting that entire
row so it fits into the open space.

Statement A: Not correct. You cannot assume
that both outcomes are equally likely. Think
about what factors affect the weather.
Statement B: Not correct. It is a
misconception that a probability gives the
proportion of outcomes that will actually
happen. You can experiment to check this
statement, but you can also think about a
simpler example, the probability of heads is
0.5, but this does not mean you will get 10
heads if you toss a coin 20 times.
Statement C: Not correct. The probability of
1 . It is no harder
each number on a dice is __
6
to roll a 6 than any other number. You may
never have rolled four 6s in a row personally,
but you cannot base probability on personal
experience.
Statement D: Not correct. Probability is not
based on patterns of recent events.
