SSS 2: Second Term’s Mathematics Scheme of Work
Week 1: LOGICAL REASONING
i. Simple and compound statements
ii. Logical operation and truth tables
iii. Conditional statements and indirect proofs.
Week 2: LINEAR INEQUALITIES
i. Linear inequalities in one variable
ii. Linear inequalities in two variables
iii. Range of values of combined inequalities
iv. Graph of linear inequalities in two variables
v. Maximum and minimum values of simultaneous linear inequalities and application of linear inequalities in real life situation
Week 3: CHORD PROPERTIES
i. Angles suspended by a chord in a circle
ii. Angles subtended by chord at the centre
iii. Perpendicular bisectors of chords
iv. Angles in alternate segment
v. Cyclic quadrilaterals
Week 4: CIRCULAR THEOREMS
i. Proof of the theorem: The angle which an arc suspends at centre is twice the angle subtended at the circumference
ii. Proof of the theorem: The angles in same segment are equal
iii. Proof of the theorem: The angles in a semicircle is one right angle
iv. Proof of theorem: The opposite angles of cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary
v. Proof of the theorem: The tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius
Week 5: CALCULATION ON CIRCLE THEOREM
i. Angle at centre is twice angle at the circumference of circle
ii. Angles in the same segment are equal
iii. Angle in a semicircle is 90°
iv. Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary (i.e. when the opposite angles are added, they give 180°)
v. Tangent to a circle (i.e. Radius of a circle is perpendicular to the tangent of a circle)
Week 6: TRIGONOMETRY 1
i. Derivation of sine rule and its application
ii. Derivation of cosine rule and its application
Week 7: THE RIGHT-ANGLE TRIANGLE
i. Angles of elevation and depression
Week 8: BEARING
i. Definition and drawing of 4 cardinal, 8 cardinal points and 16 cardinal points
ii. Notation for bearings cardinal notations N30°E, 545°N, 3 digits notations e.g. 075°, 350° etc.
iii. Making sketches involving lengths and angles/bearing
iv. Problem solving on lengths, angles and bearings
Week 9: PROBABILITY
i. Throwing of dice, tossing of coin and pack of playing cards
ii. Theoretical and experimental probability
iii. Mutually exclusive events
Week 10: PROBABILITY II
i. Independent events
ii. Complementary events
iii. Outcome tables
iv. Tree diagram/practical application of probabilities in health, business and population
