AQA A-Level Maths : Year 13 Pure

Christopher Mann, Sep 11, 2025

This GeoGebra companion maps directly to Chapters 1–16 of the Cambridge Student Book 2 (Year 2). Each chapter contains short, interactive GeoGebra investigations that mirror the textbook topics so students can explore definitions, transform graphs, test proofs, visualise calculus, and model applications dynamically. [list] [*][b]Proof and mathematical communication [/b]— GeoGebra constructions and dynamic diagrams to illustrate proofs, generate counterexamples, and practise communicating reasoning. [*][b]Functions [/b]— interactive mappings, domain/range sliders, inverse/composite function visualisers. [*][b]Further transformations of graphs [/b]— combined translations, stretches/reflections with parameter sliders and step-through animations. [*][b]Sequences and series [/b] — animated sequence generation, partial-sum plots, and convergence visualisations. [*][b]Rational functions and partial fractions[/b] — asymptotes, removable holes, and dynamic decomposition into partial-fraction pieces. [*][b]General binomial expansion[/b] — coefficient visualisers, series expansion explorer, and approximation demonstrations. [*][b]Radian measure [/b]— unit-circle interactives linking radians, arc length and trig values; angle-to-coordinate mapping. [*][b]Further trigonometry [/b]— dynamic trig-identity verifiers, sum/difference formula visualisations and waveform manipulations. [*][b]Calculus of exponential and trigonometric functions [/b]— differentiation/integration demonstrations for exp & trig functions with live tangent/area displays. [*][b]Further differentiation[/b] — higher derivatives, stationary points and inflection-point explorers with curvature/concavity sliders. [*][b]Further applications of calculus [/b]— optimisation, kinematics and area/volume modelling built from interactive parameters. [*][b]Further integration techniques [/b]— substitution, parts and partial-fractions integration illustrated and compared with numerical approximations. [*][b]Differential equations [/b] — slope fields, families of solution curves, and parameter-driven modelling (separable equations). [*][b]Numerical solutions of equations [/b]— root-locating tools: bisection, Newton–Raphson, fixed-point iterations with visual convergence diagnostics. [*][b]Numerical integration [/b]— trapezium rule and error visualisations with adjustable partitioning. [*][b]Applications of vectors [/b] — 2-D motion, position/velocity vectors, and geometric/vector proofs with dynamic components. [/list]
