281097 2004-10-15 08:09:00 im year 11 , i have been looking over some practice papers and the cosine and sine rules are there yet they change the content of the exams each year ApeNz (4220)
281098 2004-10-15 08:10:00 hey george - isnt trig a external you might have a practice - the cosine and sine rules are normal execellence questions ApeNz (4220)
281099 2004-10-15 08:30:00 NO WAY that those things will come up in Level One... small chances in level two. ... small.... ~~~~~ s y ~~~~~ (2054)
281100 2004-10-15 08:48:00 My teacher says they might and thats enough for me to study for it - and we are learning about it so why won't it ? ApeNz (4220)
281101 2004-10-15 08:52:00 Yeah, it was a 'mock' exam at the end of Term 3, to prepare us for the end of year externals. It didn't include the Sine or Cosine rules, neither does the real thing.

But there was a 'Sine and Cosine rule suppliment' made by my school.

I'm actually in Year 10, but there's an 'accelerate' class that does NCEA Level 1 for Maths and Science (Wellington College).

But I have finished learning it in class, done the mock test for it (the suppliment thing wasn't NCEA it was just out of 15), I got 12 out of 15 as far as I remember.

281102 2004-10-15 08:54:00 What about those of us doing Cambridge exams?! :P

Easy way to remember it, you'll notice the first bit closely resembles Pythagoras' Theorem... a^2 = b^2 + c^2

So just remember -2bc cos A
