Number of problems by type in previous exams
(20) Differentiate given function, find gradient/tangent to a point on the graph/normal to a point, local/global maximum/minimum in a given domain, etc.
(16) Given 3-D points/vector, find lines/ perpendiculars/intersections, etc.
(11) Solve a trigonometric equation over a given domain.
(10) [Now deleted from the syllabus] Matrix Algebra: Add/subtract/multiply/find inverse/solve matrix equation.
(10) Arithmetic/Geometric sequences and series: Given equation, find terms/given terms, find equation/given sum, find equation, etc.
(9) Analyze/apply/solve exponential/logarithmic equations of growth/decay.
(8) Normal distribution (should know 68-95-99.7 rule for Paper 1. Otherwise, calculator use.) Given parameters, find probabilities/given area, find argument.
(7) Find/analyze composition/inverse of given functions.
