Year 10 - Advanced Mathematics (Year 10 Core Program)

Year 10 - Advanced Mathematics (Year 10 Core Program)

Overview

Students will extend their existing knowledge of their F – 10 Mathematics Curriculum by completing an in-depth exploration of the Mathematics 2.0 Victorian Curriculum 10A content.

Students will develop a sophisticated understanding of mathematical concepts and fluency with processes and be able to reason, pose and solve problems in Number, Algebra, Measurement, Space, Statistics and Probability.

This subject will allow for consolidation and deepening of knowledge as well as provide a foundation for technology use to mathematics required for the VCE study of Mathematics via the use of a CAS calculator.

Units / Topics Types of Assessment
Number systems. Test (technology free and technology allowed components)
Indices, exponentials, and logarithms. Application and Modelling Tasks (technology allowed)
Linear and quadratic relationships Semester Examination (technology free and technology allowed components)
Polynomial relationships, including higher order polynomials.
Functions and relations, including non-linear relationships.
Trigonometry and measurement.
Probability

Future Directions
Satisfactory completion of this subject will provide a sound foundation for students to proceed to Unit 1 & 2 Mathematical Methods and Unit 1 & 2 Specialist Mathematics.
