MCC YEAR 10 Mathematics
Subject title: YEAR 10 Mathematics
Main Dimension Measurement: The content for this topic will enable students to reach each of the following progression Points
• conversion between units and between derived units
• use of pythagoras theorem to calculate the length of a hypotenuse
• use of symmetry and scale to calculate side lengths in triangles
• calculation and application of ratio, proportion and rate of change such as concentration, density and the rate of filling a
container
• use of pythagoras theorem to calculate the length of a side other than a hypotenuse
• conversion between degrees and radians, and use of radians when calculating arc length and area of sectors
• use of pythagoras theorem in three-dimensional applications
