    Using extension 1 formulas/methods in mathematics?

    I'm sure this has been asked before but... Are we allowed to use it? Like Binomial Theorem and Circle geometry. I've come across possible uses a few times but have always stuck to the 2 unit way of doing it. However, if I did use the 3 unit method (if I forget another way to do it or something)...

    When you explain quotes...

    Should you basically be explaining the affect on the audience? E.g. in "Richard III", Richard is described using beast-like imagery, depicting how "his venom tooth will rankle to the death". This imagery reflects Richard's Machiavellian nature and gives the audience a sense of ambitious...

    How do YOU study from your notes?

    Just out of curiosity. I know different things work for different people, etc, etc... Personally, I rewrite them as only keywords, then go back over that a few times. How about you? i.e. do you just read them, re-summarise, teach them to someone, etc.
