| To find the gradient of a curve at any point, use... | Differentiation |
| Parallel lines have the same... | Gradient |
| To find the gradient of the line \(ax+by+c=0\)... | Rearrange into the form \(y=mx+c\). The value of \(m\) is the gradient. |

| The discriminant of \(ax^2+bx+c\) is... | \[b^2-4ac\] |
| The discriminant of a quadratic equation tells us... | How many roots (or solutions) it has. This will be how many times it crosses the \(x\)-axis |
| If a quadratic equation has two distinct real roots, what do we know about the discriminant? | \[b^2-4ac>0\] |
| If a quadratic equation has two equal roots, what do we know about the discriminant? | \[b^2-4ac=0\] |

| Here is the graph of \(y=x^2-8x+7\). Use it to solve the quadratic inequality \(x^2-8x+7>0\) | \(x<1\) or \(x>7\) These are the red sections of the curve. Note - do not write \(x<1\) and \(x>7\) - the word 'and' implies \(x\) would need to be \(<1\) and \(>7\) at the same time... which is clearly not possible! |
| The formula for differentiating by first principles... | \[\frac{dy}{dx} = \lim_{\delta x\rightarrow 0}\left (\frac{f\left(x+\delta x\right)-f(x)}{\delta x} \right )\] |

| If \(\left (x+a \right )\) is a factor of \(f(x)\), then... | \[f(-a)=0\] This is known as the Factor Theorem |
| If the remainder, when \(f(x)\) is divided by \((x+a)\) is R, then... | \[f(-a)=R\] This is known as the Remainder Theorem |
| What effect will the transformation \(y=f(x)+a\) have on the graph of \(y=f(x)\)? | Translation \(a\) units in the \(y\) direction. i.e. the graph will move UP by \(a\) units |
| What effect will the transformation \(y=f(x+a)\) have on the graph of \(y=f(x)\)? | Translation \(-a\) units in the \(x\) direction. i.e. the graph will move LEFT by \(a\) units |
| What effect will the transformation \(y=af(x)\) have on the graph of \(y=f(x)\)? | Stretch, scale factor \(a\) in the \(y\) direction. i.e. the \(y\) values will be multiplied by \(a\) |
| What effect will the transformation \(y=f(ax)\) have on the graph of \(y=f(x)\)? | Stretch, scale factor \(\frac{1}{a}\) in the \(x\) direction. i.e. the \(x\) values will be divided by \(a\) [This could also be described as a 'squash', scale factor \(a\) in the \(x\) direction] |
| How would you use the second derivative, \(\frac{d^2 y}{dx^2}\) to determine the nature of the stationary points on a graph? | Substitute the \(x\) co-ordinates of the stationary points into \(\frac{d^2 y}{dx^2}\). If you get a positive answer, it's a MIN. If you get a negative answer, it's a MAX. |
