Mathematics Applications Units 1&2 for Western Australia

specifically to the Western Australian Mathematics Applications Year 11 syllabus. Covering both
Units 1 and 2 in one resource, it has been written with practical contexts and worded questions as
its priority alongside ample practice offered through worked examples and exercises. This course
follows on from the K-10 Australian Curriculum and expands upon the fundamental skills and
knowledge developed in earlier levels.
Compared to the previous Australian Curriculum edition, this WA edition has undergone a number
of revisions. Careful adjustments to notation and language have been made throughout to match
that used in the WA syllabus, and in WA classrooms more generally. Multiple-choice questions
that were formerly located in the chapter reviews and revision chapters have been removed for this
edition.
This edition begins by introducing computation and practical arithmetic and then consumer
arithmetic, building upon the non-calculator skills necessary for the Year 11 and 12 Applications
course, before leading to shape and measurement, linear and non-linear expressions, and matrices.
The study of the normal distribution and investigating and comparing data distributions covers the
statistical strand of the syllabus. Right-angled trigonometry and non-right-angled trigonometry
are now covered in separate chapters to better facilitate teaching and learning. Chapters on linear
graphs and models and simultaneous linear equations focus largely on new applications of previous
knowledge and skills, and getting confident with using a CAS calculator in appropriate contexts.
Worked examples utilising CAS calculators are provided throughout, with and detailed
user instructions for both ClassPad and TI-Nspire included for each CAS example. The CAS
'ribbons' used within each exercise direct students to questions which should be completed
with the aid of technology, and are intended to help prepare students for examinations and other
assessments.
The TI-Nspire calculator examples and instructions have been completed by Russell Brown and
those for the Casio ClassPad have been completed by Maria Schaffner.
