Year 11 Mathematics Advanced

TERM 1, 2026

TERM 1 - Algebraic Techniques, Linear, Quadratic and Cubic Functions, Trigonometry

In 2026, students will commence the Preliminary Mathematics Advanced course.  

To be successful candidates in this course, students are expected to have a solid understanding of algebraic skills from the Advanced Pathway 

in Stage 5; this is a pre-requisite for success in this course. 

During Term 1, students will further their Algebraic Techniques to include Stage 6 level of difficulty. Next, the students will develop their understanding of functions, both theoretically and graphically. Students will explore graphs including Linear, Quadratic and Cubic Functions. Finally we work on Trigonometry, looking at acute angles before progressing on to angles of any magnitude.

In Term 1, students will complete Task 1, the first of their assessments. It will be worth 30% of their overall Preliminary result.
