  4. An explicit formula for this arithmetic sequence is given by an = a + (n −1)b, n ∈ N, a recursive formula is given by a1 = a and an = an−1 + b for n > 1. Here are some examples of arithmetic sequences, see if you can determine a and b in each case: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, ... 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, ...

    Mrs Jones bought 12 Kilos of potatoes today. Centre Another word for 'middle'. The centre of a circle is the point which is the same distance from all points on the circumference. Centre of Rotation A point about which a shape is rotated. The centre of rotation may be on the shape being rotated (perhaps even the centre of the shape) or it may be of...

    Diagonal A straight line going across a polygon from one vertex to another.

    h Graph A way of showing a relationship on a diagram. The most common types of graph are block graphs, line graphs and pie charts. www.mathsphere.co.uk Grid A sequence of (normally) horizontal and vertical intersecting lines used to draw patterns or graphs. Heptagon A polygon with seven sides. Hexagon A polygon with six sides.

    www.mathsphere.co.uk Inscribed circle A circle drawn inside a polygon (normally a triangle) so that it just touches each of the sides of the polygon. In a triangle the centre of this circle is obtained by bisecting each angle and putting the compass point at the place where the three bisectors meet.

    only. e.g. Cube, cuboid, tetrahedron, dodecahedron etc are all polyhedra. A sphere is not a polyhedron because its surface is curved.

  5. The original document is scanned at the sending station, converted into an analog or digital representation, and sent over a communication channel to the receiving station, which constructs a duplicate image on paper; this image is referred to as a facsimile.

  6. A function is a rule which maps a number to another unique number. In other words, if we start off with an input, and we apply the function, we get an output. For example, we might have a function that added 3 to any number. So if we apply this function to the number 2, we get the number 5.

  7. A function is typically represented in a table, by points on a coordinate graph, or by a rule such as an equation. For example, for a function with the rule “Double,” 1 is paired with 2, 2 is paired with 4, 3 is paired with 6, and so on. In symbols, y = 2 ∗ x or y = 2 x.
