Starting with two basic vector steps, which destinations can you reach on a vector walk?
Join the midpoints of a quadrilateral to get a new quadrilateral. What is special about it?
Quadratic graphs are very familiar, but what patterns can you explore with cubics?
10 graphs of experimental data are given. Can you use a spreadsheet to find algebraic graphs which match them closely, and thus discover the formulae most likely to govern the underlying processes?
Can you make sense of the three methods to work out what fraction of the total area is shaded?
This problem challenges you to find cubic equations which satisfy different conditions.
Show that if you add 1 to the product of four consecutive numbers the answer is ALWAYS a perfect square.
It is believed that weaker snooker players have a better chance of winning matches over eleven frames (i.e. first to win 6 frames) than they do over fifteen frames. Is this true?
