Formulae: Higher Tier: Section Cross

1. The document provides formulae and rules for GCSE Mathematics including volume formulas for prisms, spheres, and cones, surface area formulas for spheres and cones, trigonometric ratios, and equations for the quadratic formula and area of a triangle. 2. It also includes blank spaces for students to show their working and answers to 18 mathematics questions. The questions cover areas such as calculating areas of shapes, probabilities, percentages, standard form, and graph sketching. 3. The final page shows a cumulative frequency table and graph for a set of data about teachers' ages that students are asked to analyze, including finding estimates for the median and a frequency.
