How to use the solutions

Mark your own work like an examiner

Each solution is written as an IB mark scheme: M1 for a method mark, A1 for an answer mark that depends on the method, R1 for reasoning and AG where the answer is given in the question. Where your method differs, check that each of your lines would earn the same marks.

The questions are in The Ultimate Guide for the IB: Mathematics: Analysis and Approaches HL, available as an e-book in two volumes. Calculator steps for the TI-84 Plus CE are on each chapter page; the book itself gives TI-Nspire CX II and Casio fx-CG50 keystrokes.
