4 Geometry
What learners need to study: Notes
4.2 D understand the term regular polygon’ and

Polygons calculate interior and exterior angles of
regular polygons
E understand and use the angle sum of For a polygon with n sides,
polygons the sum of the interior
angles is (2n – 4) right
angles
F understand congruence as meaning the
same shape and size
G understand that two or more polygons with

the same shape and size are said to be
congruent to each other
4.3 A identify any lines of symmetry and the order Name a quadrilateral with
Symmetry of rotational symmetry of a given two- no lines of symmetry and
dimensional figure order of rotational
symmetry of 2
4.4 A interpret scales on a range of measuring
Measures instruments
B calculate time intervals in terms of the Use am and pm

24-hour and the 12-hour clock
C make sensible estimates of a range of
measures
D understand angle measure including three-
figure bearings
E measure an angle to the nearest degree
4.5 A measure and draw lines to the nearest

Construction millimetre
B construct triangles and other

two-dimensional shapes using a
combination of a ruler, a protractor and
a pair of compasses
C solve problems using scale drawings
D use straight edge and a pair of compasses

to:
(i) construct the perpendicular bisector
of a line segment
(ii) construct the bisector of an angle

4.6 A recognise the terms centre’, radius’, chord’,

Circle properties diameter’, circumference’, tangent’, arc’,
sector’ and segment’ of a circle
B understand chord and tangent properties of Two tangents from a point

circles to a circle are equal in
length
Tangents are
perpendicular to the
radius at the point of
contact
The line from the centre of
a circle which is
perpendicular to a chord
bisects the chord (and the
converse)
4.10 C find the surface area of simple shapes using

3D shapes and the area formulae for triangles and
volume rectangles
D find the surface area of a cylinder

E find the volume of prisms, including cuboids
and cylinders, using an appropriate formula
3 3
F convert between units of volume within the e.g. cm to m and vice
3
metric system versa and 1 litre = 1000 cm
4.11 A understand and use the geometrical
Similarity properties that similar figures have
corresponding lengths in the same ratio but
corresponding angles remain unchanged
B use and interpret maps and scale drawings

5 Vectors and transformation geometry
5.2 A understand that rotations are specified by a
Transformation centre and an angle
geometry
B rotate a shape about a point through a given
angle
C recognise that an anti-clockwise rotation is a

positive angle of rotation and a clockwise
rotation is a negative angle of rotation
D understand that reflections are specified by a Such as x = 1, y = 2,

mirror line y = x, y – x = 0
E construct a mirror line given an object and e.g. reflect a triangle in
reflect a shape given a mirror line the line y = x
F understand that translations are specified by
a distance and direction
G translate a shape
H understand and use column vectors in

translations
I understand that rotations, reflections and
translations preserve length and angle so
that a transformed shape under any of these
transformations remains congruent to the
original shape
J understand that enlargements are specified Positive scale factor only

by a centre and a scale factor (including fractions)
K understand that enlargements preserve

angles and not lengths
L enlarge a shape given the scale factor With or without a centre

given
M identify and give complete descriptions of
transformations
N.B. 5.1 Vectors are assessed in Higher Tier only.
