| Marks | 100 |
| Duration | 2 hours |
| Weighting | 33.33% of A Level |
1. Paper Structure and Command Words | 试卷结构与指令词
Edexcel A Level Maths Paper 1 is a pure mathematics paper worth 100 marks and lasting 2 hours. It usually contains around 11 to 14 questions, with later questions asking you to link several topics such as trigonometry, calculus and coordinate geometry.
爱德思A Level数学卷一为纯数学试卷,满分100分,考试时间2小时。通常有11至14道题,后面的题目会要求综合运用三角函数、微积分和坐标几何等多个知识点。
Before answering, identify command words: ‘state’ requires a short answer, ‘show that’ requires rigorous working, and ‘hence or otherwise’ signals a link from the previous part.
作答前先识别指令词:’state’ 要求简短答案,’show that’ 要求写出严格推导,’hence or otherwise’ 提示本题与前一小问存在联系。
2. Algebraic Manipulation and Surds | 代数运算与根式
Pure Paper 1 often starts with simplification of rational expressions, indices and surds. You must be confident rationalising denominators such as 1 ÷ (3 + √2) by multiplying numerator and denominator by the conjugate 3 − √2.
卷一开头常考查有理式化简、指数与根式。你需要熟练掌握分母有理化,例如 1 ÷ (3 + √2) 要将分子分母同乘共轭根式 3 − √2。
Common mistakes include treating √(a + b) as √a + √b and losing negative signs when applying the laws of indices. Write every line of working to avoid sign errors.
常见错误包括把 √(a + b) 当成 √a + √b,以及在应用指数法则时丢失负号。写出每一步运算可减少符号错误。
2√27 + 3√12 = 6√3 + 6√3 = 12√3
If 8ˣ = 2¹², then 2³ˣ = 2¹², so 3x = 12 and x = 4
3. Quadratics and Inequalities | 二次方程与不等式
Quadratic equations appear both in isolation and inside modelling questions. Know the factor method, completing the square, and the quadratic formula.
二次方程既会单独出题,也会出现在建模题中。要掌握因式分解法、配方法和公式法。
x = (−b ± √(b² − 4ac)) ÷ 2a
For a quadratic inequality, always sketch the graph or use a sign table. For x² − 5x + 6 < 0, the solution is 2 < x < 3, not x < 2 or x > 3.
解二次不等式时务必画图或使用符号表。例如 x² − 5x + 6 < 0 的解为 2 < x < 3,而不是 x < 2 或 x > 3。
Completing the square also reveals the vertex of y = ax² + bx + c. If the coefficient a is positive, the graph has a minimum; if negative, a maximum.
配方法还能揭示 y = ax² + bx + c 的顶点。若系数 a 为正,图像有最小值;若为负,则有最大值。
4. Graphs and Transformations | 函数图像与变换
You need to sketch and transform functions including y = f(x) + a, y = f(x + a), y = af(x) and y = f(ax). A negative sign inside or outside the bracket creates a reflection in the y-axis or x-axis.
你需要会画函数图像并掌握变换:y = f(x) + a、y = f(x + a)、y = af(x) 和 y = f(ax)。括号内外的负号分别表示关于 y 轴或 x 轴的对称。
When solving f(x) = g(x) graphically, the x-coordinates of intersections are the roots. If a modulus function is involved, split into cases or reflect the negative part.
用图像解 f(x) = g(x) 时,交点横坐标就是方程根。若涉及绝对值函数,应分情况讨论或将负段对称翻折。
5. Coordinate Geometry and Circles | 坐标几何与圆
The equation of a circle with centre (a, b) and radius r is (x − a)² + (y − b)² = r². To find the centre and radius from x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, complete the square.
圆心为 (a, b)、半径为 r 的圆方程为 (x − a)² + (y − b)² = r²。若题目给出 x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0,需通过配方法求圆心和半径。
A tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact. Use m₁m₂ = −1 to find tangent gradients from the radius gradient.
圆的切线与切点处半径垂直。可利用 m₁m₂ = −1 由半径斜率求切线斜率。
6. Trigonometry and Identities | 三角函数与恒等式
Core identities include sin²θ + cos²θ = 1, tanθ = sinθ ÷ cosθ, and the sine and cosine rules for non-right-angled triangles.
核心恒等式包括 sin²θ + cos²θ = 1、tanθ = sinθ ÷ cosθ,以及非直角三角形的正弦定理和余弦定理。
sin²θ + cos²θ = 1
a² = b² + c² − 2bc cos A
When solving equations such as 2sin²θ − sinθ − 1 = 0, factor first: (2sinθ + 1)(sinθ − 1) = 0, then find all solutions in the required interval.
解 2sin²θ − sinθ − 1 = 0 这类方程时,先因式分解为 (2sinθ + 1)(sinθ − 1) = 0,再在指定区间内求出所有解。
7. Exponentials and Logarithms | 指数与对数
Understand that logₐx = y is equivalent to aʸ = x. The natural logarithm ln x has base e, and key rules are ln(mn) = ln m + ln n, ln(m ÷ n) = ln m − ln n and ln xⁿ = n ln x.
要理解 logₐx = y 等价于 aʸ = x。自然对数 ln x 的底为 e,核心法则为 ln(mn) = ln m + ln n、ln(m ÷ n) = ln m − ln n 和 ln xⁿ = n ln x。
Exponential growth and decay models often take the form P = P
