KEY POINTS
1.) This book is meant for knowledge build-up and prepares the students for IBDP Math-HL
examinations.
2.) The questions in each content of the workbook are tested from the basic introductory level to
the uplifted level which requires highly critical thinking.
3.) Special care is taken to break the uniqueness method of testing the problems. The questions
are tested with various differing command terms and terminology which would surely make
the understanding process challenging and thus making thorough preparations for the
exams.
4.) Making one acquire holistic education is the main goal of this workbook and hence the
questions in each content of the syllabus are proportionately developed, meeting through all
the key requirements of the IBDP pedagogy.
5.) The questions, where so ever developed in whole or part-of are nowhere picked from the
external resources directly or indirectly, thus claiming for full copyright claims of the entire
workbook designed & created.
6.) With feedbacks and opinions taken into account from all across the globe, we hope for
improvisation in the quality of the book and the standard of the questions in forthcoming
editions, meeting through the requirements of the competitive global challenges.

ESSENTIAL KEY FACTORS OF THE PEDAGOGY:
This workbook is designed into preparing the students for future
university courses and is a pre-university knowledge built-up, keeping in
mind the changes as made in the Mathematics-Higher Level syllabus
starting from first examinations, May 2014. This workbook includes the
key essential factors as expected by IB to enhance the students’ skills
in acquiring holistic education and thus making one a life-long learner,
proudly meeting through the school’s vision. The following are the key
factors into which the whole syllabus is sub-divided into:
1.) Enhancing the problem-solving skills (tested on both the
GDC & non-GDC skills)
2.) Testing on the reverse process of understanding the content
approach.
3.) Consistent practice of inducing the critical thinking skills.
4.) Connecting the topics to real-life applications.
5.) Different ways of knowing the contents or the subject itself-
Connecting to Theory of Knowledge.
6.) Historical facts behind the inventions & discoveries in
Mathematics-
Connecting to related contents of the topic.
7.) Enhancing the investigative & research skills- Investigative
topics related to the contents of the topic are included as
‘Mini-Explorations’ at the end of each content.

ESSENTIAL CONTENTS OF THE WORKBOOK
I.) ENHANCING THE PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS:
Each part of the workbook exercise initially includes testing
the students’ level of solving the problems (tested both
through the GDC & non-GDC usage). The use of GDC is
included at the problems thereof (if required while solving).
Problems where critical thinking is required are also part of
the inclusions
PROCESS OF TESTING:
Reverse process of testing the students’ approach has been
identified to be the most effective practice in the learning
process and therefore every content of the workbook is
identified with the reverse process of testing the content.
For example, given the function, graphing its curve would be
a forward process, but given the graph of the function on an
XY Co-ordinate System, identifying its function is equally
an essential practice required in the form of reverse process

of learning. Further, it also makes the learning process more
deeper and stronger(a 2-way learning approach).
III.) REAL-LIFE APPLICATIONS:
Proper care is also taken to connect every content of the
syllabus with few situations demanding for real-life
applications of math. Through this, the students are mainly
intended to apply the learned contents in the classroom
sessions into the outer world of real-life situations and thus
learn the concepts more strongly and realistically. It also
gives an opportunity for the learners to appreciate the
applications of mathematics in real-life & thus making a
journey into the life-long learning. At some instances, it
even opens-up the opportunity for demonstrating one’s own
hands-on learning.
IV.) CONNECTING TO TOK:
TOK which stands for ‘Theory of Knowledge’ is defined as the
different ways of knowing the subject and is an essential key
factor in the learning process. In pursuit of holistic education,
it is essential that the subject is learnt not only in terms of
problem-solving skills but also through the different ways of
‘understanding’ & ‘justifying’ the means of evaluating the
learnt subject. For example, learning mathematics in the
N
O
T
FO
R
SALE
present class immediately after an English class would definitely
raise the doubt in the students’ mind with a fair TOK question-
“Is Mathematics a language?” & thus creates an inquiry
platform in researching the question raised in mind and hence is
very essential for ‘knowing’ the various ‘ways of knowing’ the
subject, all in pursuit of holistic education & life-long learning.
Therefore the workbook has also stressed in involving various
contents of the topic connected with different ways of knowing,
which in turn is expected to make the students in better
understanding of TOK connected with mathematics.
V.) HISTORICAL FACTS:
The history behind the inventions & discoveries in
Mathematics have always been hidden treasures since ages &
its time now to react to the opening-up of the actual facts
behind various inventions & discoveries which have impacted
many researches & downfalls and hence in international-
mindedness it is very essential that the students investigate
the facts while learning the contents. The impact of
historical facts has been so tremendous & violent that one
episode of history has taken away the life of a great
Physicist & a Mathematician due to his realistic inventions
N

& discoveries. Copernicus who contradicted Pluto’s
assumption that the Earth is the center of the solar system
had made new discoveries and more importantly has
courageously stated that Earth is not the center of the solar
system and that the Sun was the center of the solar system
and the statement and the discovery has put him to death-
bed due to the false conflicts of prestige and selfishness of
the kings-times. Many contents in the workbook have opened
up information as investigative questions relating to various
historical facts in mathematics.
VI.) EXPLORATION TASKS:
The “Exploration” which is an Internal Assessment
component, contributes to 20% of the total weightage of
marks and hence this concept is included at the end of each
workbook content, to meet through the essential
requirements of the actual exploration task. It is expected
that the students investigate the Mini-Explorations, meeting
through all the five criteria of the latest Internal
Assessment guidelines. Through this consistent practice of
investigations & inquiries, the students will be able to
collaborate their topics to other subjects, thus expanding
their knowledge to the wider globe. It provides a learning

O
T
FO
R

platform for thoroughly preparing for the actual explorations
and is also a way of selecting the best topic suitable for
‘Exploration’ through choices of the Mini-Explorations as
already done. It also gives a wide opportunity for the
students to present their mathematical communication and
use of correct mathematical notations & terminology, the
decline of which is a major concern in the mathematical
society of the recent times, never to forget the importance
of mathematics in education system and its contribution to
real-life.
VII.) COMMAND TERMS:
The command terms which play a vital role in the questions
asked in final examinations need continuous practice of
understanding the different forms of command terms and
their individual rules of approach while solving the problems
and hence are included in the regular class-sessions. For
example, the key difference between ‘sketch’ & ‘draw’
applies itself with many rules for the former and the latter
accordingly, failing which the students would be penalized in
examinations, as per the strict marking scheme rules of IB.
Most of the students are bound to make mistakes in
understanding of the key difference between ‘Hence’ &
N
O
T
FO
R
SALE
‘Hence or otherwise’ and end up being penalized for not
applying the correct approach. Hence, each content is taken
care with differing command terms to make the practice
thorough through command term-based approach. It is also a
way of enhancing the students’ ability to improvise on their
mathematical communication skills and getting well prepared
for final examinat

How to arrange things?
Situation:Imagine I had an oval shaped stadium where I need to arrange the chairs
for the seating, a day in advance for the cricket match, then I had a sense of estimating
the number of chairs required for the perfect arrangement through the patterns I
observed. In row1, I observed that I could perfectly fit 200 chairs (aligned in an oval
shape) of a suitable size to fit the maximum, followed by the row2 with 250 chairs &
continued with 300 chairs in the third row,
Thus observing a pattern with every elliptical outer row requiring additional 50 chairs to
that of the previous row. On the whole, if I had 74 rows covering the entire
stadium, then counting by the rows would make no sense to me as a Mathematical
student. I would seek for a tailored formula to estimate on the number of chairs I
need in order, for the cricket match to be a grand success for the day, & not to
forget the comforts needed for the spectators. At this stage, I think of sequences as
the sequential patterns for the real-life. Now the task is to
(i.) Estimate the number of chairs I need to fit in the last row.
(ii.) Estimate the possible number of chairs I need in the entire stadium

Question: Can sequential life follow
the same pattern of successes or
failures throughout the life span?
i.) 0,0,0,0,0,………………
The above sequence is a continuous pattern with the element zero in each
successive term followed. Will this be an Arithmetic Sequence
as the common difference in each pair is un-un-1=0?
If ‘0’ is the total failure & ‘1’ is the complete success, then will there
be a total failure(since ‘0’ in each term of the above sequence) forever, even
after the nth stage, when the real-life is followed with the above sequence?
(or)
Will the complete success(i.e. ‘1’) as achieved in the initial stage(u1)
be followed forever even after the nth stage, when the real-life is
followed with the sequence:
1, 1, 1, 1, 1,…………..?
The common difference between each pair being ‘0’, will have no
differences at all(since ‘0’)?
ii.) Can the universal sequence,
1/0, 1/0, 1/0, 1/0,……………..
Page 194 of 198.
be accepted as an arithmetic sequence with a well-defined common
difference?

iv.) X0, X1, X2, X3, X4,………….. can be observed for a pattern with the ‘X’

Initial term u1= X0
Hence, X=0 => The initial term of the above sequence reduces to
. u1=00=?
HINT:
In real life, it is very difficult to measure failure and success in terms
of a pattern. Failure and success are very dependent on
circumstances and are also relative i.e. for a person, a success may be
an initial failure (Steve Jobb) and a failure could be an overwhelming
success in the beginning.
Added, the critics always say that
“Failure is the stepping stone for
success”

The general sequence 0,0,0,…….. may not be a pattern
continued with all zeroes(failures). It may end up with ‘1’(success) at
certain stage. Hence, maths in real-life may not always be a pattern.

The questions in each content of the workbook are tested from the basic introductory level to the uplifted level which requires highly critical thinking. 3.) Special care is taken to break the uniqueness method of testing the problems. The questions are tested with various differing command terms and terminology which would surely make the understanding process challenging and thus making thorough preparations for the exams. 4.) Making one acquire holistic education is the main goal of this workbook and hence the questions in each content of the syllabus are proportionately developed, meeting through all the key requirements of the IBDP pedagogy. 5.) The questions, where so ever developed in whole or part-of are nowhere picked from the external resources directly or indirectly, thus claiming for full copyright claims of the entire workbook designed & created. 6.) With feedbacks and opinions taken into account from all across the globe, we hope for improvisation in the quality of the book and the standard of the questions in forthcoming editions, meeting through the requirements of the competitive global challenges.

  • 8. ESSENTIAL KEY FACTORS OF THE PEDAGOGY: This workbook is designed into preparing the students for future university courses and is a pre-university knowledge built-up, keeping in mind the changes as made in the Mathematics-Higher Level syllabus starting from first examinations, May 2014. This workbook includes the key essential factors as expected by IB to enhance the students’ skills in acquiring holistic education and thus making one a life-long learner, proudly meeting through the school’s vision. The following are the key factors into which the whole syllabus is sub-divided into: 1.) Enhancing the problem-solving skills (tested on both the GDC & non-GDC skills) 2.) Testing on the reverse process of understanding the content approach. 3.) Consistent practice of inducing the critical thinking skills. 4.) Connecting the topics to real-life applications. 5.) Different ways of knowing the contents or the subject itself- Connecting to Theory of Knowledge. 6.) Historical facts behind the inventions & discoveries in Mathematics- Connecting to related contents of the topic. 7.) Enhancing the investigative & research skills- Investigative topics related to the contents of the topic are included as ‘Mini-Explorations’ at the end of each content. N O T FO R SALE
  • 9. INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE DIPLOMA PROGRAMME Mathematics-higher level ESSENTIAL CONTENTS OF THE WORKBOOK I.) ENHANCING THE PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS: Each part of the workbook exercise initially includes testing the students’ level of solving the problems (tested both through the GDC & non-GDC usage). The use of GDC is included at the problems thereof (if required while solving). Problems where critical thinking is required are also part of the inclusions PROCESS OF TESTING: Reverse process of testing the students’ approach has been identified to be the most effective practice in the learning process and therefore every content of the workbook is identified with the reverse process of testing the content. For example, given the function, graphing its curve would be a forward process, but given the graph of the function on an XY Co-ordinate System, identifying its function is equally an essential practice required in the form of reverse process II.) REVERSE . N O T FO R SALE
  • 10. of learning. Further, it also makes the learning process more deeper and stronger(a 2-way learning approach). III.) REAL-LIFE APPLICATIONS: Proper care is also taken to connect every content of the syllabus with few situations demanding for real-life applications of math. Through this, the students are mainly intended to apply the learned contents in the classroom sessions into the outer world of real-life situations and thus learn the concepts more strongly and realistically. It also gives an opportunity for the learners to appreciate the applications of mathematics in real-life & thus making a journey into the life-long learning. At some instances, it even opens-up the opportunity for demonstrating one’s own hands-on learning. IV.) CONNECTING TO TOK: TOK which stands for ‘Theory of Knowledge’ is defined as the different ways of knowing the subject and is an essential key factor in the learning process. In pursuit of holistic education, it is essential that the subject is learnt not only in terms of problem-solving skills but also through the different ways of ‘understanding’ & ‘justifying’ the means of evaluating the learnt subject. For example, learning mathematics in the N O T FO R SALE
  • 11. present class immediately after an English class would definitely raise the doubt in the students’ mind with a fair TOK question- “Is Mathematics a language?” & thus creates an inquiry platform in researching the question raised in mind and hence is very essential for ‘knowing’ the various ‘ways of knowing’ the subject, all in pursuit of holistic education & life-long learning. Therefore the workbook has also stressed in involving various contents of the topic connected with different ways of knowing, which in turn is expected to make the students in better understanding of TOK connected with mathematics. V.) HISTORICAL FACTS: The history behind the inventions & discoveries in Mathematics have always been hidden treasures since ages & its time now to react to the opening-up of the actual facts behind various inventions & discoveries which have impacted many researches & downfalls and hence in international- mindedness it is very essential that the students investigate the facts while learning the contents. The impact of historical facts has been so tremendous & violent that one episode of history has taken away the life of a great Physicist & a Mathematician due to his realistic inventions N O T FO R SALE
  • 12. & discoveries. Copernicus who contradicted Pluto’s assumption that the Earth is the center of the solar system had made new discoveries and more importantly has courageously stated that Earth is not the center of the solar system and that the Sun was the center of the solar system and the statement and the discovery has put him to death- bed due to the false conflicts of prestige and selfishness of the kings-times. Many contents in the workbook have opened up information as investigative questions relating to various historical facts in mathematics. VI.) EXPLORATION TASKS: The “Exploration” which is an Internal Assessment component, contributes to 20% of the total weightage of marks and hence this concept is included at the end of each workbook content, to meet through the essential requirements of the actual exploration task. It is expected that the students investigate the Mini-Explorations, meeting through all the five criteria of the latest Internal Assessment guidelines. Through this consistent practice of investigations & inquiries, the students will be able to collaborate their topics to other subjects, thus expanding their knowledge to the wider globe. It provides a learning N O T FO R SALE
  • 13. platform for thoroughly preparing for the actual explorations and is also a way of selecting the best topic suitable for ‘Exploration’ through choices of the Mini-Explorations as already done. It also gives a wide opportunity for the students to present their mathematical communication and use of correct mathematical notations & terminology, the decline of which is a major concern in the mathematical society of the recent times, never to forget the importance of mathematics in education system and its contribution to real-life. VII.) COMMAND TERMS: The command terms which play a vital role in the questions asked in final examinations need continuous practice of understanding the different forms of command terms and their individual rules of approach while solving the problems and hence are included in the regular class-sessions. For example, the key difference between ‘sketch’ & ‘draw’ applies itself with many rules for the former and the latter accordingly, failing which the students would be penalized in examinations, as per the strict marking scheme rules of IB. Most of the students are bound to make mistakes in understanding of the key difference between ‘Hence’ & N O T FO R SALE
  • 14. ‘Hence or otherwise’ and end up being penalized for not applying the correct approach. Hence, each content is taken care with differing command terms to make the practice thorough through command term-based approach. It is also a way of enhancing the students’ ability to improvise on their mathematical communication skills and getting well prepared for final examinat Note: All the images & mathematical diagrams have been created using the mathematical softwares ‘Geogebra’ & ‘Autograph’ and the images wheresoever copied have been cited with the reference links thereof. The coloring, designing, outlining and other special effects have been done using the Microsoft Office-2013.

  • 55. REAL-LIFE APPLICATIONS OF SEQUENCES How to arrange things? Situation:Imagine I had an oval shaped stadium where I need to arrange the chairs for the seating, a day in advance for the cricket match, then I had a sense of estimating the number of chairs required for the perfect arrangement through the patterns I observed. In row1, I observed that I could perfectly fit 200 chairs (aligned in an oval shape) of a suitable size to fit the maximum, followed by the row2 with 250 chairs & continued with 300 chairs in the third row, Thus observing a pattern with every elliptical outer row requiring additional 50 chairs to that of the previous row. On the whole, if I had 74 rows covering the entire stadium, then counting by the rows would make no sense to me as a Mathematical student. I would seek for a tailored formula to estimate on the number of chairs I need in order, for the cricket match to be a grand success for the day, & not to forget the comforts needed for the spectators. At this stage, I think of sequences as the sequential patterns for the real-life. Now the task is to (i.) Estimate the number of chairs I need to fit in the last row. (ii.) Estimate the possible number of chairs I need in the entire stadium Page 193 of 198. IBDP Mathematics-Higher LevelWorkbook . . N O T FO R SALE
  • 56. ToK Question: Can sequential life follow the same pattern of successes or failures throughout the life span? i.) 0,0,0,0,0,……………… The above sequence is a continuous pattern with the element zero in each successive term followed. Will this be an Arithmetic Sequence as the common difference in each pair is un-un-1=0? If ‘0’ is the total failure & ‘1’ is the complete success, then will there be a total failure(since ‘0’ in each term of the above sequence) forever, even after the nth stage, when the real-life is followed with the above sequence? (or) Will the complete success(i.e. ‘1’) as achieved in the initial stage(u1) be followed forever even after the nth stage, when the real-life is followed with the sequence: 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,…………..? The common difference between each pair being ‘0’, will have no differences at all(since ‘0’)? ii.) Can the universal sequence, 1/0, 1/0, 1/0, 1/0,……………..

Initial term u1= X0 Hence, X=0 => The initial term of the above sequence reduces to . u1=00=? HINT: In real life, it is very difficult to measure failure and success in terms of a pattern. Failure and success are very dependent on circumstances and are also relative i.e. for a person, a success may be an initial failure (Steve Jobb) and a failure could be an overwhelming success in the beginning. Added, the critics always say that “Failure is the stepping stone for success” So who knows, Page 195 of 198. IBDP Mathematics-Higher LevelWorkbook . . N O T FO R SALE
