y = kx2; a, b, k ∈ Z from their graphs.
(b) Identify the nature and co-ordinates of the turning point and the equation of the axis of
symmetry of a quadratic of the form y = k(x + a)2 + b; a, b ∈ Z, k = } 1.
(c) Solve quadratic equations graphically, by factorisation and by using the quadratic formula.
OUTCOME 3
Use further trigonometry.

Evidence requirements
Although there are various ways of demonstrating achievement of the outcomes, evidence would
normally be presented in the form of a closed book test under controlled conditions. Examples of
such tests are contained in the National Assessment Bank.
In assessments, candidates are required to show their working in carrying out algorithms and
processes.
