Adding more mechanics questions to my site 🥳

How did I not notice sooner?
A friend of mine has set up a board games shop - in real life. It’s genuinely impressive - the website is here, please take a look!

Question 4 A-level maths coordinate geometry; not difficult, the interesting aspect this time is I chose an approach to the solution I wouldn't normally use.
To see the solution you need to create an account (its free and I only occasionally send an email)

Third maths question is here - an interesting take on on the binomial series / expansion.

Second question is here ::
Link for the second question - this time a simple matter of determining if two circles intersect...

It’s a nice geometry question, straightforward enough, but with plenty of scope for interesting mishaps. Solution available with an account (free)
Currently tutoring a number of students for A-Level maths. As I do so I'm publishing questions for them to try. If you want to follow along, here's the first one:

Turns out here, as there, I still type out responses & delete them, invariably concluding it’s not worth the hassle.
Eldest daughter needs to do a government mandated multiplication test. So building a really stripped down practice platform. 25 questions, 6 seconds per question.

Will be adding a nicer interface and many stats soonish
Asked ChatGPT for a little help with an old landscape generating algorithm… and… witchcraft ChatGPT is witchcraft.

Updated the Lindenmayer system to feature an angle component and some pleasing examples...

Doing a slightly laborious task of linking each page of notes on my site to related ones, minimising the clicks between useful bits of A-level maths. (There’s been about three years procrastination on this task)

Adding another video or two to the site. I think because I point of more stuff when just talking through a question than when I write a solution.

Starting to add video solutions to my site (again) - but this time really bare bones - question & solution

Cheers! That’s a great suggestion!
Creating the Lorenz attractor in excel; because I’m procrastinating exquisitely.
