SPM Mathematics Tips 2016

DO

• Answer all 5 questions in Paper 2 Section B if, and only if you have extra time as the examiner will chose 4 with he highest marks.
• Show all workings as marks will be given for correct working even if the final answer is wrong. 
• Round up to at least 4 significant figures for final answers with infinite decimal places.
• For questions involving Pi, read the instruction and use the right Pi value (22/7 or 3.142) as it might make a difference in the final answer.

DON’T

• Don’t skip important workings or make assumptions that the working must be known. Show ALL workings relevant to achieving the answer. 
• Don’t forget to label the axis in graphs, and make sure to provide titles for graphs or charts.
• Do miss out the values or units in your final answers. Example: metres, kilometres, cm. 

MUST STUDY

• The Straight Line
  • y = mx + c
  • c is the point where the line touches the y-axis (y-intercept)
• Lines and Planes in 3-Dimensions
  • Use Trigonometry Rule
  • sin (θ) = opposite side / longest side
  • cos (θ) = adjacent side / longest side
  • tan (θ) = opposite side / adjacent side
• Matrices
  • Part a) usually asks to solve problems involving inverse matrix.
  • Part b) usually asks to solve linear equations with matrices
