About this title

Synopsis

This collection of challenging mathematical problems is suitable for anyone over the age of 11 who enjoys thinking about non-routine problems. Working on these problems helps learners to use and apply their mathematical knowledge and skills. Some of the problems use content met in the first year of Key Stage 3, but you have to keep your head and use quite a lot of imagination if you are going to solve them. Others require mathematical facts and skills met at a later stage and yet might be relatively more straightforward to tackle. All the problems in this collection are mathematically interesting - require a bit of flair to solve them, the kind of flair that a research mathematician needs to possess. Included in the book are comprehensive hints and suggestions for further work. The hints outline the knowledge and skills needed to solve the problems. Suitable for KS3, KS4 & post-16
