Term 1

Term 1 of the CAPS Grade 10 year covers: Algebraic expressions (the real number system, products, factorisation, algebraic fractions), exponents, equations and inequalities (linear, quadratic, literal and simultaneous equations, linear inequalities), and trigonometry (the ratios, special angles and right-angled triangles).

The tests and examinations below assess this work, each paired with its memorandum where available. Write the paper under timed conditions before looking at the memo, mark yourself honestly, and redo the questions you lost marks on a few days later — that second attempt is where the learning happens.
