Q

the two triangles needed to find exact ratios of 30, 60 and 45.

A

draw an equilateral triangle with all sides 2. split down the middle. the triangle now has sides 1, 2 and (root)3 and angles 90, 60 and 30.

draw an isosceles, right angle triangle with two sides 1 and hypotenuse (root)2.

Q

what is a sample space and how do you write one?

A

all possible outcomes: {1,2,3,4,5,6}

17
Q

what is an event?

A

a possible outcome.

p(event)=number of outcome matching event / total number of outcomes.

18
Q

complimentary event?

A

the complimentary of an event is the rest of the outcomes in the sample space. the compliment of E is written as
_
E

19
Q

what is a mutually exclusive event:

A

when if one event occurs the other cannot eg odd and even numbers

20
Q

non mutually exclusive events?

A

e.g prime and odd numbers, in a venn diagram there would be an overlap

21
Q

relative frequency is?

A

the number of times an event occurred compared to the total frequency of outcomes.

22
Q

independent and dependent events?

A

when the outcome of one event depends on the other it is dependent

eg without replacement

23
Q

what are the 3 ways to work out 2 stage events?

A

list, table and tree diagram

24
Q

when do you change the direction of the sign in linear inequations?

A

when multiplying or dividing by a negative or reversing the sides.

25
what are the three ways of solving quadratics?
factorizing, completing the square and the quadratic formula.
26
what are the steps to completing the square?
1. move the constant to the RHS 2. divide by the coefficient of x^2 3. half the coefficient of x, square it and add it to both sides 4. write LHS as a perfect square 5 square root all tha shit
27
what is the quadratic formula?
x=(-b+-|b^2-4ac|)/2a |= square root
28
what are the 3 ways of solving simultaneous equations with a brief description
graphically: draw it on a graph and write the coordinates where the two lines meet. substitution: sub in the value of one pro-numeral into the equation elimination: add or subtract the two equations.
