Preparing for your Cambridge International A Level Maths exam?

This page is packed with past paper questions on numerical solutions of equations to help you with your A Level Maths revision.

You’ll need to know how to approximate the root of an equation using graphical methods and/or by identifying a change of sign.

Students must also understand sequences of approximations that converge to a root, interpret iterative formulas of the form x_n+1 = F(x_n), and use iterations to determine a root to a given degree of accuracy.
