Royal Navy Search and Rescue helicopters provide cover to large sections of the UK coastline, offering support to coastguard services 365 days a year.

These materials from Defence Dynamics encourage the use of problem solving skills and knowledge of trigonometry to directly assist the Royal Navy in a series...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of trigonometry, often used in the field of engineering. They include the trigonometric ratios, using Pythagoras’ theorem and working with the sine and cosine rules.

Comprehensive notes, with clear descriptions, for each resource are provided, together...

This resource is designed as a resource bank of questions to supplement the teaching element of the lesson. The questions require students to use Pythagoras' theorem in order to find whether a triangle is right angled and find the lengths of missing sides, and problems on 2D and 3D shapes.

The next section...

This resource consists of 15 instant maths ideas, ideal for use as starter questions, extension question or probing questions to assess understanding, requiring students to plot graphs of the trigonometric functions and explain their properties, explore Snell’s Law, convert gradients into angles, calculate the...

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 9B which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the second half of year 9.

Trigonometry covers: Pythagoras' theorem, trigonometric functions; an introduction to sine, cosine and tangent; calculating the length of sides of triangles and calculating the...

This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of trigonometry, from an investigation leading to Pythagoras’ theorem to using the sine and cosine rules.

Trigonometry pack one contains nine work cards...

From triple science support, this case study illustrates how a school has challenged students who reported finding science uninspiring, irrelevant and “easy but boring”. They used personal learning and thinking skills and a different approach to homework.

The case study includes some background information...

From triple science support, this case study illustrates how adapting the curriculum to suit the needs of particular groups of students, recognising the importance of motivation and study skills when selecting students and planning well for future changes can lead to success in delivering triple science.

The...

From triple science support, this case study illustrates a three school partnership with higher education, involving a wide variety of activities including CPD, lesson-planning, enrichment activities and mutual observations.

The case study includes some background information about the involvement of three...

From triple science support, this case study describes a network of three high schools which worked to develop the use of virtual learning environments (VLEs) to support delivery of the triple science GCSEs.

The case study includes some background information about the schools in Ilkeston (Derbyshire), and...

From triple science support, this case study describes a network of schools and a sixth form college which focused on increasing interest in triple sciences by student peer-teaching.

The case study includes some background information about Challney High School for Boys (Luton), and its partners, who focused...

From triple science support, this case study illustrates how a collaboration of schools worked alongside the local authority, higher education and industry to try to raise awareness of science careers among students at Key Stage Three and so encourage more of them to opt for triple science GCSEs.

Based in...

The case study includes some background information about the schools involved in Stockport, supported by the local authority, how they produced a guide for addressing both basic knowledge and misconceptions in electricity, and downloadable resources to help teachers to understand all aspects of forces.

From triple science support, this case study illustrates how a school's science and mathematics departments collaborated to increase the time available for students taking triple science and so increased the level of attainment for students.

The case study includes some background information about...

From triple science support, this case study illustrates how a school used a combination of identifying potential triple science students as early as Year Eight with student perspectives on the triple science courses and their reasons for choosing it.

The case study includes some background information about...
