It would be a good idea for students to check they can use their calculators correctly to get the result shown.
An exercise for students to do without help.
2: Inverse Functions
Demo version note:
The students have already met the formal definition of a function and the ideas of domain and range. In the following slides we prepare to introduce the condition for an inverse function.

One-to-one and many-to-one functions
Each value of x maps to only one value of y . . .
Consider the following graphs
Each value of x maps to only one value of y . . .
BUT many other x values map to that y.
and each y is mapped from only one x.

By this time the students know how to find an inverse function. The graphical link between a function and its inverse has also been established and this example follows.

The exponential function has been defined and here we build on earlier work to find the inverse and its graph.
4: The Function xey
More Indices and Logs
yxey ex log
xey The function contains the index x, so x is a log.BUT the base of the log is e not 10, so
We know that yxy x

We write as ( n for natural ) so,

Demo version note:
This presentation on inverse trig ratios revises the idea of a domain. It also reminds students that a one-to-one relationship is needed in order to find the inverse function.

15: More Transformations
Demo version note:
As new topics are introduced, the presentations revise earlier work. Here, the exponential function is used to show the result of combining transformations.
Combined Transformationse.g. 1 Describe the transformations of
that give the function . Hence sketch the function.
xey 12 xey
Solution:• x has been replaced by
2x:so we have a stretch of s.f.

18: Iteration Diagrams and Convergence
Demo version note:
By this stage the students understand how to rearrange equations in a variety of ways in order to find an iterative formula. They have met cobweb and staircase diagrams in simple cases of convergence and divergence.
If you have Autograph or another graph plotter you may like to try to find both roots before you see my solution.
In the next example we’ll look at an equation which has 2 roots and the iteration produces a surprising result.

22: Integrating the Simple Functions

The opportunity is taken here to remind the students about using integration to find areas, whilst applying the work to a trig integration.
Integrating the Simple Functions

The definite integral can give an area, so this result may seem surprising. However, the graph shows us why it is correct.

47: Solving Differential Equations
Demo version note:
The slides here show the introduction to the method of separating the variables to solve some differential equations. Solutions are applied later to applications of growth and decay functions.
Before we see how to solve the equation, it’s useful to get some idea of the solution.
ydx
dye.g. (2)
The equation tells us that the graph of y has a gradient that always equals y.
We can sketch the graph by drawing a
gradient diagram. For example, at every point where y = 2, the gradient equals 2. We can draw a set of small lines showing this gradient.
2 1
We can cover the page with similar lines.
Solving Differential Equations
ydx
dy
We can now draw a curve through any point following the gradients.
Solving Differential Equations
ydx
dy
However, we haven’t got just one curve.
Solving Differential Equations
ydx
dy
The solution is a family of curves.
Can you guess what sort of equation these curves represent ?
ANS: They are exponential curves.

51: The Vector Equation of a Line
Demo version note:
By this time, the students have practised using vectors and are familiar with the notation. The equation of a straight line in vector form is developed.
Finding the Equation of a LineIn coordinate geometry, the equation of a line is cmxy e.g. 32 xy
The equation gives the value (coordinate) of y for any point which lies on the line.
The vector equation of a line must give us the position vector of any point on the line.We start with fixing a line in space.We can do this by fixing 2 points, A and B. There is only one line passing through these points.
