Unit 10 - Sequences

Unit Objectives
​
Prior Knowledge/For Review – Students should be able to:
  • Generate linear sequences from a general term
  • Find the general term of an arithmetic sequence
  • Find the general term for a simple quadratic sequence  (eg 2n2, n2 -1)
 IGCSE Core Learning Objectives – Students should be able to:
  • Continue a sequence of numbers or patterns (Video 10.01) (Questions 10.01)
  • Determine the nth term
  • Use a difference method to find the formula for a linear sequence (Video 10.02)or a simple quadratic sequence (Video 10.03)
 IGCSE Extended Learning  Objectives – Students should be able to:
  • Use a difference method to find the formula for a quadratic sequence (Video 10.04)  or a cubic sequence (Video 10.05)
  • Identify a simple geometric sequence and determine its formula (Video 10.06)
  • Identify a sequence type and use the GDC to determine its nth term
