M2 General Question

Hello, could anybody tell me if I will need to learn C3 trig for M2 Kinematics (Edexcel). There is some of it in the textbook but I thought M2 was an AS module. Thanks

'A knowledge of the specification for M1 and its prerequisitesand associated formulae, together with a knowledge of algebra,trigonometry, differentiation and integration, as specified in C1, C2and C3, is assumed and may be tested.' - from the spec. I've rarely seen questions on it in the exam but there are some in the textbook so no reason why they couldn't

Should I learn C3 trig just to be safe?

It's up to you. If you have time it's probably not a bad idea, but as I say i don't recall actually seeing any exam questions rely on it so it's your decision

M2 is actually an A2 module, so you do need to have a full knowledge of C1, C2, and C3.

I was wondering the same thing as I haven't learnt C3 yet. I've never needed to use C3 in a past paper but the specification annoys me by saying it may be tested. If i have time i might learn a bit of trig tho.

nice username haha, but on the front of the papers it says 'Advanced/Advanced Subsidiary'. Is it just knowledge of how to differentiate cosx and sinx?
