GCE Further Mathematics (2017) A Level Reforms
The A level reforms All new AS and A levels will be assessed at the same standard as they are currently All new AS and A levels will be fully linear AS levels will be stand-alone qualifications The content of the AS level can be a sub-set of the A level content to allow co-teachability, but marks achieved in the AS will not count towards the A level
The A level reforms A level Further Mathematics 50% core (all pure mathematics) 50% optional and can include pure mathematics mechanics statistics decision mathematics any other
The A level reforms - content AS level Further Mathematics 20% core (all pure mathematics) 10% compulsory (selected from the A level core) 70% optional (same options as A level) We have made an additional 20% of the content compulsory (taken from A level core)
The A level reforms Requirement for the assessment of problem solving, communication, proof, modelling, application of techniques Requirement that candidates have a calculator with the ability to compute summary statistics and access probabilities from standard statistical distributions an iterative function the ability to perform calculations with matrices up to at least order 3 3 (further mathematics only)

Complex Numbers Radians Compound angle formula Series Sigma notation AS Level Key Prerequisites
AS Level: What s New? Complex Number: Knowledge of arg(z 1 z 2 ) = arg(z 1 )+arg(z 2 ) was specifically not required in FP1 but is in new specification. Matrices: Understand and use zero and identity matrices. Find invariant points and lines for a linear transformation. Understand and use singular and non-singular matrices. Properties of inverse matrices. Solve three linear simultaneous equations in three variables by use of the inverse matrix. Interpret geometrically the solution and failure of solution of three simultaneous linear equations. Further Algebra: Understand and use the relationship between roots and coefficients of polynomial equations up to quartic equations. Form a polynomial equation whose roots are a linear transformation of the roots of a given polynomial equation (of at least cubic degree).
AS Level: What s New? Further Calculus: Derive formulae for and calculate volumes of revolution. Further Vectors Understand and use the vector and Cartesian forms of an equation of a straight line in 3-D. Understand and use the vector and Cartesian forms of the equation of a plane. Calculate the scalar product and use it to express the equation of a plane, and to calculate the angle between two lines, the angle between two planes and the angle between a line and a plane.

GCE Further Mathematics (2017) Hyperbolic Functions
Hyperbolic Functions With circular trigonometric functions the point (sinx,cosx) describes the locus of a circle radius 1 For hyperbolic functions, the point (sinhx, coshx) gives the locus of poits on an (equilatoral) hyperbola. As an example, the graph of y=coshx will be a catenary (latin- catena, chain ) the curve taken by a chain suspended between two points.
Hyperbolic Functions - Definitions
Hyperbolic Functions Example 1
Hyperbolic Functions Example 2 Use the definition of sinh x to find, to 2 d.p, the value of x for which sinh x = 5.
Hyperbolic Functions Graphs
Hyperbolic Functions Identities Hyperbolic identities are very similar to trigonometric identities Osborn s rule: The corresponding hyperbolic identity can be formed from a trigonometric identity by changing the sign of the product (or implied product) of any 2 sine terms.
Hyperbolic Functions - Identities Example: Write down the hyperbolic identity corresponding to tan(a+b) The sign in the denominator has changed since tanatanb has the implied multiplication of 2 sines (sinasinb) hence a sign change by Osborn s rule.
Hyperbolic Functions - Identities Given that sinh x = ¾, find the exact value of (a) cosh x, (b) tanh x, (c) sinh 2x Unlike circular functions, the option of using a right-angled triangle with a cast diagram is not available and a hyperbolic identity must be used.
Hyperbolic Inverse Functions The function is reflected in the line y=x to find the inverse function. Note that coshx requires x 1 to be one to one and have an inverse.
Hyperbolic Functions -Equations Solve 2cosh 2 x 5sinh x = 5, giving your answer in natural logarithms
