Classwork Series and Exercises {Mathematics – JSS 2}: Angles in a Polygon
Angles between lines If a line is split into 2 and you know one angle you can always find the other one. Example: If we know one angle is 45° what is angle “a” ? Angle a is 180° − 45° = 135° This method can be used for several angles on one side of a straight line. Example: What is angle “b” ? Angle b is

Classwork Series and Exercises (Mathematics – JSS1): Estimation and Approximation
ESTIMATION AND APPROXIMATION ROUNDING OFF To ’round off’ or ‘approximate’ a number to a desired degree of accuracy, we round the number up if the next digit is 5 or more or we round the number down if the next digit is less than 5. We represent approximately as ‘~’ Examples 73 is close to 70 if approximating to or rounding in “tens”.

Number bases Most people count in tens. For instance, the place value of the digits in number 4956 in this system Thousands hundreds tens units ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ 4 9 5 6 The place values are in powers of ten. It is called the base ten system. 4956 = 4 X
The Myth of ‘I’m Bad at Maths’: How to prove yourself wrong
“I’m just not a maths person.” We hear it all the time. And we’ve had enough. Because we believe that the idea of “maths people” is the most self-destructive idea in our society today. The truth is, you probably are a maths person, and by thinking otherwise, you are possibly hamstringing your own career. Worse, you may

Classwork Series and Exercises {Mathematics- JSS2}: Inverse and Identity
Additive Inverse If we add 0 (zero) to any number, the result is the same as the given number. For example, 3 + 0 = 3, 0 + 8 = 8 We say that 0 is the identity for addition. If the sum of two numbers is 0, we say that each number is the

Classwork Series and Exercises {Mathematics- JSS3}: Tangent of an Angle
Introduction The tangent is one of the three basic trigonometric functions, the other two being sine and cosine. These functions are essential to the study of triangles and relate the angles of the triangle to its sides. The simplest definition of the tangent uses the ratios of the sides of a right triangle, and modern
