Year 11 Mathematics Advanced

TERM 2, 2026

Students will begin Term 2 with Topic 4 – Introduction to Functions and Relations and Topic 5 – Further Functions, students learn to identify patterns and connections to communicate precisely, using algebraic modelling to analyse data and predict outcomes in fields like finance and meteorology.

In Topic 6 – Introduction to Differentiation, students will be introduced to the fundamental concept of differential calculus, where students use the "gradient as a rate of change" to find rates of change for non-constant functions represented by curves.

In Topic 7 – Graph Transformation, students will explore how functions and their transformations are used to model and solve complex problems across diverse quantitative fields.

Lastly, in Topic 8 – Trigonometry Radians and Measure of Angles, develop an understanding of periodic behaviour through trigonometric functions, enabling them to model naturally occurring phenomena such as waves, vibrations, and radio signals.

In Term 2, students will complete Task 2 which will be worth 30% of their overall Preliminary result.
