Description:
IGCSE
Additional Mathematics is written in line with the latest syllabus. As a functional
textbook, it emphasises the quick acquisition and mastery of the necessary
mathematical concepts and skills.
The development of new content in each topic
strikes a balance between maintaining a reasonable level of rigour while
ensuring the necessary results are laid out in a succinct manner.
Concepts are
developed in a logical manner and linked whenever possible to help students
develop a macroscopic view of Mathematics.
In particular, from the topic of
Functions, one first subsequently branches out to the different types of
functions, exploring their algebraic and graphical features, and then
culminating in the Calculus aspect.
This
textbook assumes the reader is concurrently studying IGCSE Mathematics, and
from time to time, some of the results from IGCSE Mathematics will be made use
of, particularly in the areas of Geometry and Trigonometry.
