=AS 1.8 Geometry Internal on the 16th of June 2011. 3 real credits.=

What is in the test? Like the number and measurement internals there is a big question with a lot of different parts to it. You will need to construct, draw an isometric diagram, write instructions, use a scale, draw plan, top and side views, create a net and read a complex question. Isometric links [] [] [] [] to move the 3d shapes about

Course information and workbook (standard) Page 46 to 49; 90 to 105; 131 to 141 (Do all these pages prior to internal) Page 86 to 89 (missing?) see nzqa for the practice internals.

Key tips

 * Make sure you learn the correct mathematical terms for constructions, transformations, and coordinates.
 * Practise drawing [|scale diagrams].
 * Learn how to do the basic constructions accurately.
 * You must use a ruler, compass, and sharp pencil for your constructions.
 * Do **not** rub out your construction arcs when you have finished. This how your marker knows what you did.
 * Practise designing patterns (to use in a logo or frieze), using transformations and constructions.
 * Learn how to use appropriate equipment and technology
 * Learn to use [|isometric] paper for drawing 3-D diagrams.


 * For transformations you must specify the:**
 * distance and the direction of the movement (for translations)
 * mirror line (for reflection)
 * centre, angle of rotation, and the direction (for rotation)
 * centre and scale factor (for enlargement).


 * For [|constructions] you must specify the:**
 * type of construction
 * position
 * direction if appropriate.

Where to start? Why not learn all the constructions? But first lets start thinking and observing special truths...if we understand WHY the constructions work we can remember them easier! media type="youtube" key="C2htfCP2Jqk?rel=0" height="209" width="253" media type="custom" key="9257804"
