Trang 3This book has been written to cover the ‘ ’course over a two-year period.
The new course was developed by University of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) in consultationwith teachers in international schools around the world It has been designed for schools that want theirmathematics teaching to focus more on investigations and modelling, and to utilise the powerful technology
of graphics calculators
The course springs from the principles that students should develop a good foundation of mathematical skillsand that they should learn to develop strategies for solving open-ended problems It aims to promote apositive attitude towards Mathematics and a confidence that leads to further enquiry Some of the schoolsconsulted by CIE were IB schools and as a result, Cambridge International Mathematics integratesexceptionally well with the approach to the teaching of Mathematics in IB schools
This book is an attempt to cover, in one volume, the content outlined in the Cambridge InternationalMathematics (0607) syllabus References to the syllabus are made throughout but the book can be used as afull course in its own right, as a preparation for GCE Advanced Level Mathematics or IB DiplomaMathematics, for example The book has been endorsed by CIE but it has been developed independently ofthe Independent Baccalaureate Organization and is not connected with, or endorsed by, the IBO
To reflect the principles on which the new course is based, we have attempted to produce a book and CDpackage that embraces technology, problem solving, investigating and modelling, in order to give studentsdifferent learning experiences There are non-calculator sections as well as traditional areas of mathematics,especially algebra An introductory section ‘Graphics calculator instructions’ appears on p 11 It is intended
as a basic reference to help students who may be unfamiliar with graphics calculators Two chapters of
‘assumed knowledge’ are accessible from the CD: ‘Number’ and ‘Geometry and graphs’ (see pp 29 and 30).They can be printed for those who want to ensure that they have the prerequisite levels of understanding forthe course To reflect one of the main aims of the new course, the last two chapters in the book are devoted tomulti-topic questions, and investigations and modelling Review exercises appear at the end of each chapterwith some ‘Challenge’ questions for the more able student Answers are given at the end of the book,followed by an index
demonstrations and simulations, and the two printable chapters on assumed knowledge The CD also containsthe text of the book so that students can load it on a home computer and keep the textbook at school
The Cambridge International Mathematics examinations are in the form of three papers: one a non-calculatorpaper, another requiring the use of a graphics calculator, and a third paper containing an investigation and amodelling question All of these aspects of examining are addressed in the book
The book can be used as a scheme of work but it is expected that the teacher will choose the order of topics.There are a few occasions where a question in an exercise may require something done later in the book butthis has been kept to a minimum Exercises in the book range from routine practice and consolidation ofbasic skills, to problem solving exercises that are quite demanding
In this changing world of mathematics education, we believe that the contextual approach shown in thisbook, with the associated use of technology, will enhance the students’ understanding, knowledge andappreciation of mathematics, and its universal application

Trang 11Graphics calculator instructions
In this course it is assumed that you have a graphics calculator If you learn how to operate your calculator
successfully, you should experience little difficulty with future arithmetic calculations
There are many different brands (and types) of calculators Different calculators do not have exactly thesame keys It is therefore important that you have an instruction booklet for your calculator, and use itwhenever you need to
However, to help get you started, we have included here some basic instructions for the Texas Instruments
TI-84 Plus and the Casio fx-9860G calculators Note that instructions given may need to be modified
slightly for other models
GETTING STARTED
Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus
The screen which appears when the calculator is turned on is the home screen This is where most basic
calculations are performed

Trang 12Most modern calculators have the rules for Order of Operations built into them This order is sometimes
referred to as BEDMAS
This section explains how to enter different types of numbers such as negative numbers and fractions, and
how to perform calculations using grouping symbols (brackets), powers, and square roots It also explains
how to round off using your calculator
NEGATIVE NUMBERS
To enter negative numbers we use the sign change key On both the TI-84 Plus and Casio this looks like
FRACTIONS
On most scientific calculators and also the Casio graphics calculator there is a special key for entering
fractions No such key exists for the TI-84 Plus, so we use a different method.
Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus
To enter common fractions, we enter the fraction as a division
To enter mixed numbers, either convert the mixed number to an improper fraction and enter as a common
fraction or enter the fraction as a sum.
Casio fx-9860g
SIMPLIFYING FRACTIONS & RATIOS
Graphics calculators can sometimes be used to express fractions and ratios in simplest form.

Trang 14For example, to enter 2£ (4 + 1) we type 2 £ ( 4 + 1 )
We also use brackets to make sure the calculator understands the expression we are typing in
In general, it is a good idea to place brackets around any complicated expressions which need to be evaluated
separately
POWER KEYS

Note that there are special keys which allow us to quickly evaluate squares
ROOTS
To enter roots on either calculator we need to use a secondary function (see Secondary Function and Alpha
Keys).

The end bracket is used to tell the calculator we have finished entering terms under the square root sign

ADJUSTING THE VIEWING WINDOW
When graphing functions it is important that you are able to view all the important features of the graph
As a general rule it is best to start with a large viewing window to make sure all the features of the graphare visible You can then make the window smaller if necessary
Texas Instruments TI-84 Plus
Some useful commands for adjusting the viewing window include:

PRIMES AND COMPOSITES
The factors of a positive integer are the positive integers which divide exactly into it, leaving no remainder.
For example, the factors of 10 are: 1, 2, 5 and 10
A positive integer is a prime number if it has exactly two factors, 1 and itself.
A positive integer is a composite number if it has more than two factors.
6 is composite as it has four factors: 1, 2, 3 and 6
1 is neither prime nor composite
If we are given a positive integer, we can use the following procedure to see if it is prime:
Step 1: Find the square root of the number
Step 2: Divide the whole number in turn by all known primes less than its square root
If the division is never exact, the number is a prime
The first few prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19,
A perfect square or square number is an integer which can be written as the square of another integer.
A perfect cube is an integer which can be written as the cube of another integer.

COMMON FACTORS AND HCF
Notice that 2 is a factor of both 24 and 42 We say that 2 is a common factor of 24 and 42.
3 is also a common factor of 24 and 42, which means the product 2 £ 3 = 6 is another common factor
A common factor is a number that is a factor of two or more other numbers.
The highest common factor (HCF) is the largest factor that is common to two or more numbers.
To find the highest common factor of a group of numbers it is often best to express the numbers as products
of prime factors Then the common prime factors can be found and multiplied to give the HCF

A common fraction consists of two whole numbers, a
numerator and a denominator, separated by a bar symbol.
LOWEST COMMON DENOMINATOR
The lowest common denominator (LCD) of two or more numerical fractions is the lowest
common multiple of their denominators
ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION
To add (or subtract) two fractions we convert them to equivalent fractions with a
common denominator We then add (or subtract) the new numerators
