Flashcards for OCR A Level Mathematics A (H240), split into Pure Mathematics, Statistics and Mechanics and then by topic in the specification's order. A card says whether a formula is on the exam's own formulae sheet or one you have to recall.

Adding it gives you your own copy, with every subdeck below. Each card then comes back just before you would forget it, and every one you get right or wrong counts towards your mastery of its topic. You can delete or suspend the parts you are not studying once it is yours.

Some of its cards

  • What is the period of y=sin⁡xy = \sin x?
    360°360°, or 2π2\pi radians
  • What is the discriminant of ax2+bx+cax^2 + bx + c?
    b2−4acb^2 - 4ac
  • What is a null hypothesis?
    The statement of no change or no effect, assumed true unless there is enough evidence against it, usually written H0H_0
  • What is the difference between displacement and distance?
    Displacement is a vector giving position relative to a start point; distance is the scalar total length travelled
  • What is the sine rule?
    asin⁡A=bsin⁡B=csin⁡C\frac{a}{\sin A} = \frac{b}{\sin B} = \frac{c}{\sin C}
  • What two properties does a force have?
    Magnitude and direction: it is a vector
  • What is a function, as a mapping?
    A mapping from a domain to a range such that every value in the domain gives exactly one value in the range
  • What is the difference between plotting and sketching a curve?
    Plotting marks individual calculated points accurately; sketching shows the correct shape and key features without plotting every point
  • How do you solve sin⁡θ=0.5\sin \theta = 0.5 for 0≤θ<360°0 \leq \theta < 360°?
    Find the principal value with sin⁡−10.5=30°\sin^{-1} 0.5 = 30°, then use the symmetry of the sine graph to find every solution in the interval: 30°30° and 150°150°
  • How does the graph of y=f(x)+ay = f(x) + a relate to y=f(x)y = f(x)?
    A translation of aa units upwards (parallel to the yy-axis)
