Ali and Alan Umraw, is designed as enrichment exercises in learning to solve the questions in CAPE Unit 2 Mathematics and as preparation for excellent results in examinations encountered at the Upper Sixth form level of Secondary school. There are several aims and objectives in this workbook. After reading through this solution book, students will perceive the critical analysis, intuitive deduction, logical reasoning and the proper or desired presentation involved in the solution of the questions of CAPE Unit 2 Mathematics. They will develop an understanding of facts and relationships presented through words, numbers, symbols, graphs and the relevant diagrams. They will also develop skills in critical thinking and clarity of presenting CAPE Mathematical solutions. Certainly, too, they will be able to develop a range of problem-solving strategies that will enable them to identify, describe and formulate problems, after which they will be able to make references and draw conclusions of a mathematical nature. This is especially so as sometimes many alternatives to solving the various questions are deliberately offered. Candidates at this level will be encouraged to integrate their learning with all types of existing technologies and so be more confident young citizens in the twenty-first century. This is keeping with the achievement of six essential learning outcomes of the Curriculum and Planning Division of the Ministry of Education in Trinidad and Tobago. This solution book facilitates the CAPE rationale for teaching and leaming Advanced Mathematics. Our students will know that CAPE Mathematics incorporates the study of the properties of numbers and their relationships to studies Measurement, Space, Shape, Euclidean Geometry, Calculus Statistics, and Probability. They will be able to understand that Advanced Mathematics deals with special strands of mathematics in its purest and most aesthetic form. ‘Also, the study of CAPE Mathematics makes students better creative thinkers through the development of logical thinking, problem-solving, investigative skills, organisational and argumentative skills. Furthermore, the study of mathematics will liken them to the great philosophers and thinkers of the previous worlds Our students may come to realise, even at this relatively early stage of their development, that mathematics is the engine that motors the modern world. It continues to engage and obstinately perseveres to enlighten, uplift, entertain, and rule as the erowned, proud Empress, on one of all humanity's greatest cultural achievements. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The aims and objectives in this book are obvious, basic, clear and fundamental. The book is designed to demonstrate to candidates the rules and applications of the topics associated wit CAPE Unit 2 Mathematics. The questions are worked whilst clearly illustrating these rules, as well as various alternative methods that follow so many questions. All of these are aimed at demonstrating to prospective candidates: (i) the sequential process of thinking and analysing the data re quired in the process of solving questions, (ii) the proper presentation of solutions to questions as it analytical reasoning. (iii) the alternative methods that may be possible, methods, Parallels the sequence of though not necessarily shorter (iv) the necessity, importance, relevance and clarity associated with the drawing or sketching of diagrams, (v)__ the recollection of basic formulae that is re ‘quired for CSEC Additional Mathematics at this level, This solution book attempts to remind candidat tes of the mathematical laws and their usage that are associated with CAPE Unit 2 Mathemati ics and to satisfy the needs of students as they e said discipline. The authors are Hence, of thinking and this is considered to be essential and regarded as a necessary and sufficient condition in the overall plan for the mastering of CAPE Unit 2 Mathematics.
