"For 1906 and subsequent years."

PAPER I.

Arithmetic.

Simple and compound rules, vulgar and decimal fractions (omitting recurring decimals), contracted methods of multiplication and division proportion, metric system, exchanges, interest, present worth and discount, stocks and shares, profit and loss, square root, square and cubic measure. The use of algebraical symbols and processes shall be permitted. Examples of a difficult nature or involviny lengthy processes should be omitted.

Algebra.

Simple rules, easy factors, highest common factor and least common multiple (both, as far as solvable by easy factorisation), simple fractions. simple simultaneous equations with not more than two unknown quantities (not involving literal coefficients), easy numerical quadratic equations by factorisation, easy problems on the above types of equations, square root, use of squared paper for plotting points and straight lines, graphical solution of simple simultaneous equations.

PAPER II.
Geometry.

The questions in practical Geometry shall be set on the constructions contained in Schedule A together with easy extensions of them as riders if desired. A candidate should provide himself with a ruler graduated in inches and tenths of an inch and in centimetres and millimetres, a set square a protractor, compasses and a hard pencil. All figures should be drawn accurately.

The questions on theoretical Geometry shall consist of theorems contained in Schedule B, together with questions upon these theorems, easy deductions from them, and arithmetical illustrations. Any proof of a proposition shall be accepted which forms a part of any systematic treatment of the subject; the order in which the theorems are stated in Schedule B is not imposed as the sequence of the treatment. The use of intelligible abbreviations is recommended.

SCHEDULE A.

Bisection of angles; of straight lines and arcs of circles.
Construction of perpendiculars to straight lines.

Construction of an angle equal to a given angle.

Construction of parallels to a given straight line.

Simple cases of construction of triangles from sufficient data.

Division of straight lines into a number of equal parts.

Construction of tangents to a circle.

Construction of regular figures of 3, 4, 6, 8 sides in or about a given

circle.

Description of a circle in or about a triangle and a square.

Description of a segment of a circle on a given straight line containing a given angle.

SCHEDULE B.

Angles at a point.

If a straight line stands on another straight line, the sum of the two angles so formed is equal to two right angles; and the converse.

If two straight lines intersect, the vertically opposite angles are equal.

Parallel Straight Lines.

When a straight line cuts two other straight lines, if

(i) a pair of alternate angles are equal,

or (ii) a pair of corresponding angles are equal,

or (iii) a pair of interior angles on the same side of the cutting line are together equal to two right angles,

then the two straight lines are parallel; and the converse.

Straight lines which are parallel to the same straight line are parallel to one another.

Triangles and Rectilinear Figures.

The sum of the angles of a triangle is equal to two right angles.

If the sides of a convex polygon are produced in order, the sum of the angles so formed is equal to four right angles.

If two triangles have two sides of the one equal to two sides of the other, each to each, and also the angles contained by these sides equal, the triangles are congruent.

If two triangles have two angles of the one equal to two angles of the other, each to each, and also one side of the one equal to the corresponding side of the other, the triangles are congruent.

If two sides of a triangle are equal, the angles opposite to these sides are equal; and the converse.

If two triangles have the three sides of the one equal to the three sides of the other, each to each, the triangles are congruent.

If two right-angled triangles have their hypotenuses equal, and one side of the one equal to one side of the other, the triangles are congruent. If two sides of a triangle are unequal, the greater side has the greater angle opposite to it; and the converse.

Of all the straight lines that can be drawn to a given straight line from a given point outside it, the perpendicular is the shortest.

The opposite sides and angles of a parallelogram are equal, each diagonal bisects the parallelogram, and the diagonals bisect one another.

If there are three or more parallel straight lines, and the intercepts made by them on any straight line that cuts them are equal, then the corresponding intercepts on any straight line that cuts them are also equal. Areas.

Parallelograms on the same or equal bases and of the same altitude are equal in area.

Triangles on the same or equal bases and of the same altitude are equal in area.

Equal triangles on the same or equal bases are of the same altitude.

Illustrations and explanations of the Geometrical theorems correspondin to the following algebraical identities :

k (a + b + c + ...) =ka + kb + kc + ...;

[merged small][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][merged small][merged small]

The square on a side of a triangle is greater than, equal to, or less tha the sum of the squares on the other two sides, according as the ang contained by those sides is obtuse, right or acute. The difference in th cases of inequality is twice the rectangle contained by one of the tw sides and the projection on it of the other.

In any triangle the sum of the squares on two sides is equal to twi the square on half the base, together with twice the square on the medi which bisects the base.

Loci.

The locus of a point which is equidistant from two fixed points is t perpendicular bisector of the straight line joining the two fixed points. The locus of a point which is equidistant from two intersecting straig lines consists of the pair of straight lines which bisect the angles betwe the two given lines.

The Circle.

A straight line drawn from the centre of a circle to bisect a chord wh is not a diameter, is at right angles to the chord; conversely, the perpen cular to a chord from the centre bisects the chord.

There is one circle, and one only, which passes through three gi points not in a straight line.

In equal circles (or in the same circle) (i) if two arcs subtend equal ang at the centres, they are equal; (ii) conversely, if two arcs are equal, t subtend equal angles at the centres.

In equal circles (or in the same circle) (i) if two chords are equal t cut off equal arcs; (ii) conversely, if two arcs are equal, the chords of arcs are equal.

Equal chords of a circle are equidistant from the centre; and

converse.

The tangent at any point of a circle and the radius through the p are perpendicular to one another.

If two tangents are drawn to a circle from an external point

(i) the tangents are equal,

(ii) they subtend equal angles at the centre of the circle,

(iii) they make equal angles with the straight line joining the gi point to the centre.

If two circles touch, the point of contact lies on the straight line thro the centres.

The angle which an arc of a circle subtends at the centre is double which it subtends at any point on the remaining part of the circumfere
