  2. Additional Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Additional_Mathematics

    There were two examination papers: one which tested topics in Pure Mathematics, and one which tested topics in Mechanics and Statistics. It was discontinued in 2014 and replaced with GCSE Further Mathematics—a new qualification whose level exceeds both those offered by GCSE Mathematics, and the analogous qualifications offered in England.

  3. Advanced level mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_level_mathematics

    Advanced Level (A-Level) Mathematics is a qualification of further education taken in the United Kingdom (and occasionally other countries as well). In the UK, A-Level exams are traditionally taken by 17-18 year-olds after a two-year course at a sixth form or college .

  4. Arrangement of lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrangement_of_lines

    The family of lines formed by the sides of a regular polygon together with its axes of symmetry, and; The sides and axes of symmetry of an even regular polygon, together with the line at infinity. Additionally there are many other examples of sporadic simplicial arrangements that do not fit into any known infinite family. [22]

  5. Further Mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Further_Mathematics

    In contrast with other Further Mathematics courses, Further Maths as part of the VCE is the easiest level of mathematics. Any student wishing to undertake tertiary studies in areas such as Science, Engineering, Commerce, Economics and some Information Technology courses must undertake one or both of the other two VCE maths subjects ...

  6. Advanced Extension Award - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Extension_Award

    Currently, it is only available for Mathematics and offered by the exam board Edexcel. They were introduced in 2002, in response to the UK Government's Excellence in Cities report, as a successor to the S-level examination, and aimed at the top 10% of students in A level tests. They are assessed entirely by external examinations.

  7. Locus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locus_(mathematics)

    Each curve in this example is a locus defined as the conchoid of the point P and the line l.In this example, P is 8 cm from l. In geometry, a locus (plural: loci) (Latin word for "place", "location") is a set of all points (commonly, a line, a line segment, a curve or a surface), whose location satisfies or is determined by one or more specified conditions.

  8. Geometric mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_mean

    The same principle applies with the C series, whose area is the geometric mean of the A and B series. For example, the C4 format has an area which is the geometric mean of the areas of A4 and B4. An advantage that comes from this relationship is that an A4 paper fits inside a C4 envelope, and both fit inside a B4 envelope.

  9. Mathematical beauty - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_beauty

    For example, mathematical beauty arises in a Math Circle activity on symmetry designed for 2nd and 3rd graders, where students create their own snowflakes by folding a square piece of paper and cutting out designs of their choice along the edges of the folded paper. When the paper is unfolded, a symmetrical design reveals itself.
