Video Solutions - 2018 VCE Methods Exam 2 (feat. efficient ClassPad use) - Section B - Q1 and Q2

These two videos present an approach or approaches to the 2018 VCE Mathematical Methods Examination 2 - Section B, Q1 and Q2. These approaches incorporate the use of CAS as well as 'by hand' solution methods. At times, two alternative methods are presented. The providing of two solutions is intended to encourage a conversation between teachers and students about the most discerning and efficient way to tackle the mathematics presented in this form of assessment.

Some aspects of this examination can be efficiently approached by accessing user-defined functions in the ClassPad. These functions are well-suited to frequently performed computations. They should be defined and carefully checked prior to the examination. The video below shows how to create and utilise such user-defined functions.
