Standard A level Maths Questions Thread

Hi Mr Wee,
A print version of the website would be feasible. It will be better if you enhance its usefulness with the inclusion of essential notes for each topic.
To take the topic of function, inverse function and composite function as an example. Besides the formula, it will be more useful if essential notes are provided as a recap for each topic ie
1. to state the use of the vertical line rule for any function and the use of horizontal line rule for one-to-one function (ie the existence of an inverse function) and the use of dy/dx to prove an increasing or decreasing function and hence the existence of a one-to-one function.
2. to state the steps to find an inverse function (including the use of completing the squares method) and composite function and to state the relationship among the domain and range of these functions.
3. to state the conditions for the existence of inverse functions and composite functions.
4. to state the domain restriction to obtain an inverse function and composite function.
5. to state the use of the line y = x to find the relationship between a function and an inverse function.
I believe Mr Chui will be glad to help you to publish the formula booklet and he can also help you to sell it to the JC and MI students and in Popular Bookshop, Big Bookshop and other bookshops.
May I wish you every success in this project.
Thank you for your kind attention.

If Mr Wee does that, that will be on my list of books to teach students with...

Hi Eagle,
My students have already been using Mr Wee's solution books for the year by year and topic by topic TYS since these books are being published. My students were using Redspot TYS before the publication of Mr Wee's books.
My students will also be using once Mr Wee's formula booklet is published.
Dear Eagle, let us persuade Mr Wee to write the formula booklet for the benefits of the students, tutors and teachers.
Thank you for your kind attention.

Hi Ed11790,
Can remember something only means that you are firm in your foundation leh :)

Hi ahm97sic & Eagle,
For a start, I have written for topic 1 of the syllabus:
http://www.freewebs.com/weews/keyskillsseries.htm
More content will come in gradually :)

Maybe I should learn from you and write a similar one for physics... Just that I dun hv NIE degree and no experience in writing...
Anyway this was something I wrote

Wen ShihHi Mr Wee,
Great, you have started the writing. It will be nice if you can complete the writing in Feb/Mar so that it can be launched together with the publication of your 2009 solution books.

Hi Eagle,
Great, the students will have a fomula and essential notes booklet on physics to help their studies for quick reference and recap/revision.
Dear Eagle, you should ask Mr Wee to introduce you to Mr Chui (MOE authorised publisher - Dyna Publisher) to publish the physics fomula and essential notes booklet.
Mr Chui can help you to sell it to the secondary students and JC and MI students and in Popular Bookshop, Big Bookshop and other bookshops.
Cheers,

Hi Eagle,
You could go to bookshops to browse at good books and see how others write. I had no experience in writing when I began in 2006. I just had an idea of what I wanted to have in my book. Have faith in your ability and experience :)

Hi,
Topic 2 (Sequences and series) is up at the same web location :)
Thanks!

Hi wen shih,
Which is the better choice for graphing calculator? Casio or Texas Instrument?
Will it affect students adversely if they use Casio when the JC prefer TI?
-
is this abt formal letter writting or a-maths?
-
So far, the only JC I know using Casio is AJC (where Wen Shih comes from :D)
I heard TI can upload new applications, which might be useful to the students...

neither

Hi Mikethm,
Both brands are just as good, I feel. Thanks!

Hello there! I really need your help in this question involving inequalities.
Find the set of values of x for which (e^x^2)/(x-1) - 8x>0.
Hence, solve (e^x^2)/(IxI-1) - I8xI>0.
-
i use TI and i like it.
i think it is better if you were to buy the GC that your sch is using so that during lect or tutorials you will not be left behind trying to find the applications from you different GC.

hi,i need some advice....
been taking h3 maths this yr, am a j2 now.
as some of you might know..topics covered include graph theory, DE, combinatorics and plane geometry.
but the plane geometry...it seems imba hard-.- as in...even during the tutorial...im already having a lot of problems trying to even use ceva's theorem when it was taught lately. should i just give up on plane geometry and focus on the other 3 topics? even though im not exactly good with them yet but i think if i work harder on them....there might be hope:) i sort of came up with this idea because...i heard next year plane geometry is going to removed. hahaha is it because its too hard.
else if i shouldnt give up on plane geom..any err...tips to solving plane geom qns for h3 in general? i take a damn long time to solve 1 plane geom qns....
thanks...
