E-Maths: Temperature & Height of Mountain

This concept which I’m discussing in this question is common in E-Maths Paper 1.

Just pay attention that we’re using difference in temperatures compared to height of mountain.

General knowledge: As we ascend the mountain, the temperature drops. In other words, the higher you’re on a mountain, the colder it gets.

I hope you find the step by step solution easy to understand.

E-Maths: General Equation and Graphs of Line

Line is part of us, in almost everything you see.

You must understand

  • what equation of line is,
  • how to find gradient,
  • how to find the x and y intercepts,
  • what’s the relationship between a pair of parallel lines, (perpendicular lines are out of syllabus for E-Maths 4016)
  • how to write the equation of line given the diagram and lastly,
  • how to draw a line.

Do you love this topic on straight lines? Leave me your thoughts and reasons for your love/hate relationship toward lines.

March Holidays: Similarity & Congruency Mastery Workshop (Includes a Pre-Review for Download)

  1. Do you have problems writing a pair of similar triangles in the correct order?
  2. Do you have the correct strategies and approach to prove any congruent figures quickly and easily?
  3. Do you have problems understanding this topic on Similarity and Congruency because you think that you can’t rotate the figures mentally while your classmates seem to have that ‘power’?
  4. Do you have challenges in finding ratio of areas or volumes in Vectors, Mensuration?
  5. Is Similarity and Congruency simply just too much for your brain?

If your answer is yes, for any of the questions. I can help!

I have many students just like you! They dislike this topic as it is visually challenging for them, the concepts are being tested again and again in other E-Maths topics, they don’t know how to apply what they have learnt to questions!

All your problems can be solved!

During the March Holidays, I’m conducting the Similarity & Congruency Mastery Workshop and this is what you will learn:

  • the tests for proving similarity or congruency
  • the dummy-proof way to name a pair of similar or congruent figures quickly and easily  (without any mental rotation required)
  • the way to understand ratio of area or volume of similar figures (instead of just rote memorization)
  • putting basic concepts into application (extremely important for students who want to score ‘A’ for Maths)

To find out if you require this workshop, I have prepared a Pre-Review [Download here] for you to work on. It takes 15 minutes and answers are provided for you to check against your solution.

For Secondary 4 students, this workshop will prepare you for your GCE ‘O’ Levels E-Maths exams in 8 months time!

For Secondary 3 (Secondary 1-2 included) students,  you’re most welcome to attend too!
