2014 2 PERAK SMKMethodist (Acs) Ipoh - MATHS QA

This document contains a 6 question mathematics exam for Section A and a choice of 2 questions for Section B. Section A contains questions on calculus topics like continuity of functions, differentiation, sketching curves, solving differential equations, and evaluating integrals. Section B offers two multi-part questions involving advanced calculus concepts like limits, asymptotes, stationary points, and solving differential equations modeling cooling rates. Students must choose one question from this section to answer. The exam tests students on a variety of calculus techniques including limits, differentiation, integration, solving differential equations, sketching curves, and analyzing functions. Section B requires higher-level critical thinking on advanced calculus applications.
