The files below contain notes for various parts of the A-level Mathematics and Further Mathematics specifications. They are mainly short(ish) notes with occasional examples, but also contain links to relevant NRICH and Underground Mathematics problems.
Underground Mathematics is hosted by Cambridge Mathematics. The project was originally funded by a grant from the UK Department for Education to provide free web-based resources that support the teaching and learning of post-16 mathematics.
There are notes on the parts of the STEP specification not included in the prescribed DfE content for A level Maths and Further Maths on This Page.
The separate files contain the following topics:
- Algebra notes: manipulation, surds, quadratic equations, inequalities, polynomials, rational functions, logarithms, binomial expansions
- Coordinate Geometry notes: coordinate systems, straight line geometry, the equation of a circle
- Introduction to Calculus notes: gradients of curves, stationary points, tangents and normals, are under curves, improper and infinite integrals
More topics notes will be published later this year.
