Cumulative Exercises Senior 4 Pre-Calculus Mathematics
INTRODUCTION
These exercises provide experiences related to the student learning outcomes for
Senior 4 Pre-Calculus Mathematics. These exercises have the following features:
• The exercises are cumulative. Each exercise starts with questions related to
new work, and then moves to questions based on previous topics. In the early
exercises, the previous topics draw on material from Senior 2 Pre-Calculus
Mathematics and Senior 3 Pre-Calculus Mathematics.
• This presentation of topics should also enhance retention since no topic ever
disappears. It should also encourage students to see the connections among the
many parts of Senior 4 Pre-Calculus Mathematics. Students find assessments
easier with this cumulative approach, often requiring little formal review before
summative assessment.
• Schools on the semester system should spend about one day per exercise. This
leaves a substantial number of days for assessment, group work, projects,
mental mathematics, and other learning experiences. Schools not on the
semester system may require two class periods per exercise.
Materials
Scientific calculators are required throughout. Students should use spreadsheets
and graphing technology where appropriate.
Some parents may not approve of the use of playing cards and dice when teaching
lessons in probability. Teachers may want to use number cards and number cubes
instead.

6. ~ ABC is a right triangle with L. A = 30°, L. C = 60°,
and BC = 10. A flea at B travels along a line

route. It travels back and forth between AB and AC
in this manner until it reaches A. How far does it
travel?
