Complete the following questions for our next lesson.
Exercise 6F.3, question 1ace, 2ace, 3acg, and 7.
11 HL Challenge
Have a look at the questions in the PDF file here, and try to complete both questions before our next class. (Note that this is an optional homework assignment, so while I would encourage you all to try the questions, you need not complete them both.)
In addition to the mathematical content, your emphasis should also be on clarity of communication.
11 HL Polynomial Theorems
The questions below involve applications of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra, and/or the other theorems we’ve now covered. Have these completed for our next class.

Welcome to IB Mathematics with Dr. McDonald!
Greetings from Dr. McDonald!
This website will be used to provide links to useful course materials, information about tests and homework assignments, and additional resources that you may find useful.
Some of the content is password protected, and you’ll get the password in our first class together.
I’m looking forward to working with all of you, and we’ll be getting started very soon!
Most of the time you’ll be able to find me in Room 0181, and if you’d like to contact me by email I’m available at dmcdonald@mulgrave.com.
At the moment, you can find mored detailed course information (and resources) in the relevant resources page:
Lines and Vectors
Have a look at questions in this file before our next lesson.
Vector Equations of Lines
Have a look at the following questions before our next lesson. (The first two most of you have done in class, the second is new for everyone.)
- Find a vector equation of the line passing through \(A(1,3)\) and \(B(2,-1)\).
- Find the distance of the point \(A(1,3)\) to the line \(y=2x-2\).
- Find the distance from the point \(A(1,3)\) to the line \(\displaystyle{\vec{r}=\begin{bmatrix}4\\2\end{bmatrix}+\lambda \begin{bmatrix}4\\1\end{bmatrix}}\).
End-of-Year Test
Our end-of-year test on Sunday will be 1 hour and 30 minutes long, and calculators will be permitted.
All topics covered this year may appear, and your past tests, along with the end-of-chapter questions from the textbook, will help you to prepare. Good luck, and post any questions you may have below!
Applications of the Dot Product
Complete the following questions for our lesson tomorrow.
