IB MATH AA HL, Paper 2, May, 2022, TZ2, Solved Past Paper

Master the 2022 IB May for Paper 2 Mathematics AA HL with examiner tailored solutions and comments for TZ2

Question 1 [Explained]

The scenario presents a circle centered at (O) with a radius stretching out 5 meters. On this circle's boundary, imagine two distinct points, (A) and (B), which are endpoints of a curve along the circle's edge.

 

These points are connected to the circle's center (O) forming lines that meet at the center to create an angle. This angle, referred to as the central angle, measures 1.9 radians.

Question 1 (Figure)
Question 1 [a] [Explanation]

Determine the measure of segment (AB) in terms of its length.

 

This question is exploring the concept of segment length within geometric figures, specifically relating to the segment named (AB). It prompts the calculation or the determination of this specific distance, which is a common inquiry in the study of geometry and can involve understanding the relationships and properties of shapes and sizes.

Question 1 [b] [Explanation]

Determine how large the marked portion of the circle is, in terms of space covered. Consider the circle's radius and the angle that makes up the wedge when making your calculations.

Question 2 [Explained]

We have a function, let's call it (g), for which we know the rate of change at any point (x). This rate is described by the equation (g'(x) = 3x2 + 5ex), with x being any real number. The function (g) also has a specific feature: its curve goes through a particular spot on the graph, namely the point (0, 4).

 

What we're looking to find out is the original function (g(x)), knowing these details. Keep in mind that finding (g(x)) will involve integration, since we're given its derivative (g'(x)), and that we'll need to use the point (0, 4) to solve for the constant of integration.

 

Can you determine what (g(x)) is?

Question 3 [Explained]

We're looking at two separate scenarios, Event A and Event B, which do not influence each other in any way. The probability of Event A happening is exactly three times the probability of Event B occurring.

 

Now, if we consider the combined situation where either Event A or Event B or both could happen, this combined probability is 0.68. With this information, we want to figure out the probability of just Event B happening on its own.
