Vectors exam questions for GCSE maths, with worked solutions
Practise vectors with exam questions written the way GCSE papers test them: reading and drawing column vectors on a grid, adding, subtracting and multiplying column vectors, finding unknowns, writing routes round a shape in terms of a and b, and proving that lines are parallel or that points lie on a straight line. When a question asks you to draw a vector, you draw it on the grid and the page checks it. Every question comes with a worked solution and an answer, and Remix gives you a fresh version with new numbers whenever you want another go.
51 questions: 34 Higher, 9 Foundation and 8 for both tiers. Every question has a worked solution and an answer. Type your answers in and the page marks them as you go.
