MU123 - Unit 10 complete

Visible to anyone in the world

Unit 10 now complete and that concludes book C.  Unit 10 was all about quadratics and was really interesting, I thought it was going to be loads more plotting and drawing of graphs but that was really a minor part of it. 

This module is really starting to open my mind about maths and the practical uses for it.  I definitely missed this practical side of it when I was being taught at school and that's probably why I paid very little attention when I couldn't see the real world point of learning the topic.  I also like the way this module introduces concepts and then slowly builds on these to give you a full understanding.

I'm intending to make a start on the first two questions of TMA04 now (which are covered with unit 10) before moving onto book D and units 11-14.  Starting to feel like I'm through the thick of the course now.  I'm looking forward to the trigonometry unit mostly out of the remaining units.

My second TMA result should be through anytime now as well, I've noticed from the forums that a few have already got their results but it will obviously take more time with the Christmas period.
