Teach your child the multiples of 4 effectively and efficiently.

@ab05aled @sonukg4india Is there a complex number that wouldn't be acceptable?

@sonukg4india ℝ

@Trudgeteacher I agree with Djokovic, but it can be a great silo for all my ideas I have had on teaching that topic in the past that would otherwise be lost. It is also a great prompt for when I have just dealt with a behaviour issue and provides a secure feeling for full teaching days.

Question from UKMT Junior Maths Challenge 2012. #maths #challenge

@rick_deckard_rh @dpernoux @sonukg4india or use any symbol that doesn't have a pre-defined operation associated with it.

@dpernoux @sonukg4india These 'riddles' would be better presented in the form f(a, b) = c

@H0H0v If we redefine the + symbol such that a+b = f(a,b) = ab + a then we create a nightmare situation that ab+a = (a^2)b+ab = (a^3)(b^2)+(a^2)b which would only be ok if a=b=1. So let's stick to 8+11=19

8 + 11 = ?

@ShakinthatChalk Quote from one of my (not strongest) A-level students, "if I did my GCSEs now, there is no way I wouldn't get a 9". I was inlined to agree with him.

A level maths not acceptable to enter teaching without a GCSE maths. “ A Level / AS-Levels at any grade (although they are a higher level they don’t cover the breadth and depth of a GCSE)” The aptitude to study GCE maths far exceeds GCSE. ntu.ac.uk/__data/assets/…

@AhmedKhattabUK I bet that teacher really helps an EAL student in the future. It would really help that EAL student if the teacher shows that student how to overcome a couple of hurdles in a domain that that teacher had to grapple with. Especially as I bet that teacher crushes the resit.

Maybe they were eal and struggled with English. Maybe they had unsupported dyslexia or another sen Maybe they had supply during year 11 Maybe they had supply during year 7 to 9 and didn't have a ks3 Maybe their English teacher didn't do a good enough job

A graduate with a first class degree in Engineering from Manchester Uni, with 3 As at A-Level, and six 8s, a 9 and *two 3s in their English GCSE* The same person that has had to write essays & a dissertation at university level for 3 years can't become a teacher Mind boggling

@sonukg4india P=24 is clearly correct if x is 3. If x is -3 it wouldn't be a triangle but at no point does it claim to be. You would have a 1D line of modulus length 2 which simultaneously has a perimeter of 0 and 4.

@TomKenyon1 @RudraGu70107898 @ucXKiHjpdBiJsvr @Curios02435570 @asha_gurjar31 @gurjarbalkrish @USDescartes @sonukg4india @ZahlenRMD @besdakikadamat1 @martinmrmar The domain is coorect but there are a lot of rational numbers between -6 and 11. A computer couldn't assess all of them without more direction so I question how trivial that would be.

@H0H0v Red triangle= Blue trapezium 1/2(54-x)h = 1/2(26+x)h 54-x = 26+x 28 = 2x 14 = x

What is the distance between A and B?
