MAIN TOPIC: Deductive proofs
SPECIFIC TOPIC: The angle an arc subtends at the centre is twice the angle it subtends at the circumference of the circle.
REFERENCE BOOK : New General Mathematics For S.S.2
OBJECTIVE: At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
Recall, use and apply the properties of angles subtended by arcs and chords at the centre and circumference of a circle.
CONTENT: ANGLES IN A CIRCLE
THEOREM
The angle that an arc of a circle subtends at the centre is twice that which it subtends at any point on the remaining part of the circumference.
GIVEN : a circle APB with centre O.
To Prove : AOB = 2 X APB
CONSTRUCTION: Join PO and produce it to any point Q
PROOF:
NOTE: there are three possible diagrams, as in figure below
P

X2 y2


X1 y1
A Q B

With the lettering in figure above
/OA/ = /OP/ (radii)
Therefore x1 = x2 (base angles of isos. )
Therefore AOQ = X1 + X2 (ext. Angle of AOP)
Therefore AOQ = 2x2 (x1 = x2)
Similarly, BOQ = 2y2
In figure above AOB = AOQ + BOQ
= 2x2 + 2y2
= 2(x2 + y2)
= 2 x APB

GIVEN : Arc AB subtends angle AOB at the centre O and subtends angle ACB at the circumference, as shown in the figure above
Required to prove that angle AOB = 2 angle ACB
Construction : Join CO and produce to a point P.
Proof: Triangles AOC and BOC are isosceles triangles
Since AO = OC = OB = radius of circle.
Put
Angle OAC = Angle OCA = a0
Angle OCB = Angle OBC = b0
So that angle ACB = angle OCA + angle OCB = a0 + b0
Using the fact that exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior opposite angles , we have
Angle POA = angle OAC + angle OCA = 2a0 .................................... (1)
Angle POB = angle OCB + angle OBC = 2b0 .................................... (2)
Add equations 1 and 2
Angle POA + POB = 2(a0 + b0)
i.e angle AOB = 2 angle ACB

(a) H
(b) T
SPECIFIC TOPIC: THEORETICAL PROBABILITY
OBJECTIVE: At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
Solve some problems on theoretical probability
CONTENT: THEORETICAL PROBABILITY
Since experimental probability uses numerical records of past events to predict the future, its predictions are not absolute accurate.
However, the probability of throwing a 5 on a fair six-sided die is 1/6, since any one of the six faces is equally likely. This is an example of theoretical probability.
Example 1: Jessie throws a fair six-sided die. What is the probability that she throws
(a) a 9
(b) a 4
(c) a number greater than 2

Solution
(a) Since the faces of a six-sides die are numbers 1 to 6, it is impossible to throw a 9.
Probability = 0
(b) There is one chance in six of throwing a 4

Probability = number of required outcomes/number of possible outcomes
1/6
(c) There are four possibilities greater than 2 (3,4,5,6)

Probability = numbers of required outcomes/number of possible outcomes
4/6 = 2/3
(d) There are three possible even numbers (2,4,6)

Probability = number of required outcomes/number of possible outcomes
3/6 = ½
EVALUATION: The lesson is evaluated as the students are asked to solve the following problem.
A school contains 357 boys and 323 girls. If a student is chosen at random, what is the probability that a girl is chosen ?
ASSIGNMENT:
A state Lottery sells 1 ½ millions tickets of which 300 are prize winners. What is the probability that a person chosen at random from a large crowd is less than 150cm tall?
CONTENT: THEORETICAL PROBABILITY
FOR EVENT NOT TO HAPPEN:
If p is the probability of an event happening then p lies in the range 0≤ 1. The probability of an event not happening is p’ where p’ = 1 – p.
EXAMPLE 1: A letter is chosen at random from the alphabet. Find the probability that it is
(a) F
(b) F or T
Solution
In every case
ε= (A,B,C......Z)
(a) Let a = (F)
Then p(a) = n(a)/n(ε) = 1/26
The probability that F is chosen is 1/26
(b) Let b = (F, T)
Then p(b) = n(b)/n(ε)
= 2/26 = 1/13
There is a 1/13 probability that F or T is chosen.
EVALUATION: The lesson is evaluated as the students are asked to solve the following problems,
A bag contains two black balls, three green balls and four red balls. A ball is picked from the bag at random. What is the probability that it is

SPECIFIC TOPIC: INVERSE MATRICES
REFERENCE BOOK : New General Mathematics For S.S.2
OBJECTIVE: At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
Solve inverse of matrices
CONTENT:
Inverse of a Matrix
Matrix Inverse
For a square matrix A, the inverse is written A-1. When A is multiplied by A-1 the result is the identity matrix I. Non-square matrices do not have inverses.
Note: Not all square matrices have inverses. A square matrix which has an inverse is called invertible or nonsingular, and a square matrix without an inverse is called noninvertible or singular.
AA-1 = A-1A = I
Example: For matrix , its inverse is since

AA-1 =
and A-1A = .

Here are three ways to find the inverse of a matrix:
1. Shortcut for 2x2 matrices
For , the inverse can be found using this formula:

Example:

Use Gauss-Jordan elimination to transform [ A | I ] into [ I | A-1 ].

Example: The following steps result in .

so we see that .




EVALUATION: The lesson is evaluated as the students are asked to solve the following problems.

2. Augmented matrix method
Use Gauss-Jordan elimination to transform [ A | I ] into [ I | A-1 ].

Example: The following steps result in .

so we see that .
3. Adjoint method
A-1 = (adjoint of A) or A-1 = (cofactor matrix of A)T

Example: The following steps result in A-1 for .
The cofactor matrix for A is , so the adjoint is . Since det A = 22, we get
.
