Welcome to the summer bridging programme designed to help Year 10 students transition smoothly into SQA Higher Mathematics. This course reinforces essential skills from National 5 and introduces the core topics of Higher, ensuring you build confidence and deep understanding before the new term begins.
欢迎参加为 Year 10 学生打造的暑期衔接课程，帮助你平稳过渡到 SQA 高等数学（Higher Mathematics）。本课程巩固 National 5 的关键技能，并提前介绍 Higher 的核心主题，确保你在新学期开始前建立信心和深刻的理解。
1. Strengthening Algebraic Fluency | 强化代数运算能力
Higher Mathematics relies heavily on your ability to manipulate algebraic expressions accurately. You must be able to expand, factorise and simplify with speed and precision.
高等数学极其依赖准确操作代数式的能力。你必须能够快速且精确地展开、因式分解和化简。
+ (a + b)x + ab. Similarly, (ax + b)(cx + d) requires careful multiplication of each term.
展开双括号遵循分配律：(x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab。类似地，(ax + b)(cx + d) 需要对每一项仔细相乘。
Factorising a quadratic such as x² – 5x + 6 means finding two numbers that multiply to 6 and add to –5, giving (x – 2)(x – 3). Always check by expanding.
对二次式如 x² – 5x + 6 进行因式分解，需找到两个数乘积为 6、和为 –5，得到 (x – 2)(x – 3)。务必通过展开检验。
eting the square rewrites a quadratic x² + bx + c as (x + p)² + q, where p = b/2 and q = c – p². This form reveals the vertex and helps solve equations.
配方法将二次式 x² + bx + c 改写为 (x + p)² + q，其中 p = b/2，q = c – p²。该形式可揭示顶点并帮助解方程。
The quadratic formula provides a universal solution method:
二次公式提供了一个通用的求解方法：
x = [–b ± √b² – 4ac] / (2a)
Remember to set the equation to zero first and identify coefficients a, b and c. Practice makes this automatic.
记住先把方程化为零，并确定系数 a、b 和 c。多加练习可使计算自动化。
2. Quadratic Functions and the Discriminant | 二次函数与判别式
The discriminant Δ = b² – 4ac determines the nature of the roots of a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0.
判别式 Δ = b² – 4ac 决定了二次方程 ax² + bx + c = 0 的根的性质。
If Δ > 0, the equation has two distinct real roots. The parabola intersects the x‑axis at two points.
若 Δ > 0，方程有两个不相等的实根。抛物线与 x 轴交于两点。
If Δ = 0, there is exactly one real root (a repeated root); the graph touches the x‑axis at its vertex.
若 Δ = 0，恰好有一个实根（重根）；图像在顶点处与 x 轴相切。
If Δ < 0, there are no real roots, and the parabola does not meet the x‑axis. In Higher, complex roots are not covered, but recognising 'no real solutions' is essential.
若 Δ < 0，没有实根，抛物线不与 x 轴相交。在 Higher 中不涉及复数根，但识别“无实解”至关重要。
example, find k such that the equation has equal roots by setting Δ = 0 and solving for k.
你还将运用判别式求未知系数：例如，令 Δ = 0 并求解 k，以找到使方程有等根的 k 值。
3. Trigonometry: Exact Values and Identities | 三角学：精确值与恒等式
Higher Mathematics demands instant recall of exact trigonometric values for 0°, 30°, 45°, 60° and 90°.
高等数学要求瞬间回忆 0°、30°、45°、60° 和 90° 的精确三角值。
| Angle θ | 0° | 30° | 45° | 60° | 90° |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| sin θ | 0 | 1/2 | √2/2 | √3/2 | 1 |
| cos θ | 1 | √3/2 | √2/2 | 1/2 | 0 |
| tan θ | 0 | 1/√3 | 1 | √3 | undefined |
Two fundamental identities drive many proofs and equation‑solving steps: sin²θ + cos²θ ≡ 1 and tan θ ≡ sin θ / cos θ.
两个基本恒等式推动了许多证明和解方程步骤：sin²θ + cos²θ ≡ 1 以及 tan θ ≡ sin θ / cos θ。
he principal value and then using symmetry or the CAST diagram to determine all solutions.
在给定区间内解三角方程，例如在 0° ≤ x ≤ 360° 内解 2 sin x = 1，需要先求主值，然后利用对称性或 CAST 图找出所有解。
4. Introduction to Differentiation | 导数初步
Differentiation finds the gradient of a curve at a point. The derivative f'(x) is obtained from first principles as the limit of [f(x+h) – f(x)] / h as h approaches 0. In Higher, we practise the limit definition and then rely on standard rules.
微分用于求曲线在某点处的梯度。导数 f'(x) 从第一原理出发，定义为当 h 趋近于 0 时 [f(x+h) – f(x)] / h 的极限。在 Higher 中，我们练习极限定义，然后依赖标准法则。
If f(x) = xⁿ, then f'(x) = n xⁿ⁻¹
This power rule extends to terms with coefficients and constant multiples. For example, the derivative of 3x² + 5x – 2 is 6x + 5.
该幂法则可推广到带系数和常数倍的项。例如，3x² + 5x – 2 的导数为 6x + 5。
derivative is used to find the equation of a tangent to a curve at a point by evaluating f'(a) for the gradient and using the point (a, f(a)) in y – y₁ = m(x – x₁).
导数可用于求曲线上某点的切线方程，通过计算 f'(a) 得到梯度，并利用点 (a, f(a)) 代入 y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)。
Higher also introduces rates of change, where the derivative gives the instantaneous rate of one variable with respect to another.
Higher 还会引入变化率，其中导数给出一个变量对另一个变量的瞬时变化率。
5. Integration and Area under a Curve | 积分与曲线下方面积
Integration is the reverse process of differentiation. The indefinite integral of xⁿ is:
积分是微分的逆过程。xⁿ 的不定积分为：
∫ xⁿ dx = (xⁿ⁺¹)/(n+1) + C, n ≠ –1
The constant of integration C must always be included for indefinite integrals.
不定积分中必须始终包含积分常数 C。
Definite integration calculates the area between a curve y = f(x), the x‑axis and the lines x = a and x = b:
定积分计算曲线 y = f(x)、x 轴以及直线 x = a 和 x = b 之间的面积：
Area = ∫ₐᵇ f(x) dx
You evaluate this as F(b) – F(a), where F is an antiderivative of f. Watch out for areas below the x‑axis; they produce a negative value and must be handled using separate integrals or absolute values.
这计算为 F(b) – F(a)，其中 F 是 f 的一个原函数。注意 x 轴下方的面积会产生负值，必须用分段积分或绝对值处理。
In Higher, integration is applied to problems involving displacement, velocity and acceleration, linking back to differentiation.
在 Higher 中，积分被应用于位移、速度和加速度问题，与微分联系起来。
6. The Straight Line: Advanced Forms | 直线的深层形式
= mx + c, Higher extends this to all forms and uses them in coordinate geometry problems.
尽管 National 5 包含 y = mx + c，Higher 将其扩展到所有形式，并用于坐标几何问题。
The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is √[(x₂ – x₁)² + (y₂ – y₁)²]. The midpoint is ((x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2). Both formulas are fundamental.
两点 (x₁, y₁) 和 (x₂, y₂) 的距离为 √[(x₂ – x₁)² + (y₂ – y₁)²]。中点为 ((x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2)。这两个公式都是基础。
The gradient m = (y₂ – y₁)/(x₂ – . Parallel lines have equal gradients; perpendicular lines have gradients that multiply to –1.
梯度 m = (y₂ – y₁)/(x₂ – x₁)。平行线梯度相等；垂直线的梯度乘积为 –1。
The equation of a line can be written in point‑gradient form:
直线方程可写为点斜式：
y – y₁ = m(x – x₁)
You must be able to find the equation of a median, an altitude or a perpendicular bisector in a triangle—common Higher tasks.
你必须能够求出三角形中的中线、高线或垂直平分线的方程——这是 Higher 的常见任务。
Collinearity is tested by showing that three points share the same gradient between pairs, or that one point satisfies the line equation of the other two.
共线性可以通过检验三点中两两梯度相同，或某点满足其余两点所在的直线方程来证明。
7. Equation of a Circle and Tangents | 圆的方程与切线
The standard equation of a circle with centre (a, b) and radius r is:
圆心为 (a, b)、半径为 r 的标准方程为：
(x – a)² + (y – b)² = r²
You can expand this to the general form x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, where the centre is (–g, –f) and the radius is √g² + f² – c.
你可以将其展开为一般式 x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0，其中圆心为 (–g, –f)，半径为 √g² + f² – c。
To find the intersection of a line and a circle, substitute the line equation into the circle and solve the resulting quadratic. The discriminant indicates whether the line cuts, touches or misses the circle.
求直线与圆的交点时，将
