Notes on graph plotting

~ Use suitable scale

        - Write down scale on the graph paper

~ Use about 2/3-3/4 of the page

        - Allows you to maximize the scale, making your graph more accurate

~ Label axis

~ Accuracy of graph: Half a small square box

~ Must show vertical/y intercept (Especially important for linear law)

~ Show your table of values

        - At least 3 points 

AM and EM Assessment Book (GCE O format)

To assist students in their revision and preparation for GCE 'O' Level, the Mathematics Department has made arrangement with the bookshop to order the following 2 books for the students.

The information is as follows:

• Additional Mathematics by topic $7.00
• Mathematics by topic $5.50

Both will include solution booklet

Please make arrangement with your Math teacher on the procedures for purchases.
