Circles - Equations and Graphs
This excel program contains a series of interactive spreadsheets related to the equation of the circle. The first sheets enable the student to alter the radius and centre of the circles centred at the origin and elsewhere. The program allows the student to view the...
Cubics (Factorising and Graphing)
This interactive excel program enables students to investigate cubic functions and the relationship between the factorised form and the graph.
The first activities require the student to use the factor theorem to...
Factorising
This resource contains two interactive excel programs which enable students to investigate cubic functions and the relationship between the factorised form and the graph.

Gradient
This excel program contains a series of interactive spread sheets designed to explore the concept of a gradient of a curve.
The first activity illustrates that the gradient of a function, at a point P, is the gradient...
