UNIT OVERVIEW

This revision guide helps you prepare for your Grade 11 Mid-Year Examination. You will bring together everything from Term 1 and Term 2: exponents, surds, equations, number patterns, functions, analytical geometry, and trigonometry.

The mid-year examination has two papers:

• Paper 1: 100 marks, 2 hours — Algebra (exponents, equations, inequalities, patterns, functions)
• Paper 2: 100 marks, 2 hours — Analytical geometry and trigonometry

By working through this guide, you will:

• Apply exponent laws and simplify surds confidently
• Solve quadratic equations, inequalities, and simultaneous equations
• Work with arithmetic and quadratic number patterns
• Sketch and analyse parabolas, hyperbolas, exponentials, and trigonometric graphs
• Use analytical geometry formulas to solve coordinate problems
• Simplify expressions using trigonometric identities and reduction formulae
• Solve trigonometric equations (general and specific solutions)
• Develop time management and mark-maximisation strategies
