A collection of links, videos etc that will give you last minute revision

Bitesize has a comprehensive list
Bitesize does Simultaneous Equations
A really, really good Mind Map - I like these

A worksheet explaining quadratics such as 2x2 + 5x − 7.

Oh dear he tries to be funny - a difference of 2 Squares

Trigonometry: Graphs

Chapter 37 Graphs

I'll add things later - but do subscribe/follow it'll help - this topic will be on the second paper.

Cubic Functions

• Have a look at Bitesize Cubic Function )
• Have a look at the links - there is a good summary of the graphs you should know.

A video that is American but watch once!



Reciprocal Function look at how this is plotted









Trigonometric functions sine, cosine - be aware of what they look like







Solving Quadratic equations graphically






37.3 Transformations and Functions
A very good start is to look at Bitesize
Translations, Stretch, Reflection
There is a pdf here - 9 pages that will need printing out.
