Why this why now
This unit follows from vectors where pupils revisited and enhanced their understanding of shape and space. We link that knowledge to this unit as well as building from proof and trigonometry to construct accurate and specific shapes and diagrams.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Use compass and straightedge accurately
- Understand perpendicular and angle bisectors
- Apply basic properties of geometric figures
