Preparing for your Cambridge International A Level Maths exam?

This page is packed with past paper questions on exponentials and logarithms to help you master the topic.

Students need to understand the relationship between logarithms and indices and apply the laws of logarithms (excluding change of base). They should also be familiar with the definition and properties of e^x and ln x, including their roles as inverse functions and their graphs.

Other key skills include using logarithms to solve equations and inequalities where the unknown appears in indices and transforming equations into linear form to determine constants from the gradient or intercept.
