This document provides a revision list for a calculator paper, organized into four categories from D to A in order of importance. It includes mathematical topics such as angle properties, trigonometry, the Pythagorean theorem, sine and cosine rules, percentages, ratios, fractions, algebra, geometry, statistics, and probability. The list suggests focusing revision efforts on topics ranked A and B such as the sine and cosine rules, trigonometry, Pythagorean theorem, and percentages as they are likely to be most important for the exam.

1. Revision suggestions for calculator paper 2009
D C B A
Angle properties – Z and X Pythagoras Trigonometry Sine rule and cosine rule
angles SOH CAH TOA
Internal and external angles of Volume of prisms Reverse percentages Area of triangle using
polygons ½ ab Sin C
(a and b must ‘trap’ angle C)
Area and circumference of a Similar shapes – angles the % increase/ decrease Vectors
circle same, sides in the same ratio = (difference / original) ×
A = πr² C = πD or C = 2π r 100%
These must be memorised!
Area of compound shapes – Mean from grouped data – Compound interest Rationalising the denominator
rectangles and circles or find the midpoint × frequency
triangles put together etc
Fractions Changing the subject of a Quadratics Quadratic formula
formula
Ratio Speed-distance graphs Recognise shapes of graphs Stratified sampling
Which is the better buy… Compound measures Moving average Recurring decimals
Density, speed etc.
Stem and leaf Bearings Similar shapes Fractional and negative indices
Enlargement Trial and improvement Regions – using inequalities Cones and spheres
Pie charts Expressions – identify length,
area and volume
Scatter graphs Trial and improvement
