Introduction
This module contains some STEP 3 questions involving Algebra and Trigonometry.
Each STEP 3 module consists of some STEP questions, some topic notes and useful formulae, a "hints" sheet and a "solutions" booklet.
STEP questions are challenging, so don't worry if you get stuck. These STEP 3 modules assume that you have already begun to develop your problem-solving skills and approach to STEP questions by working on the Foundation modules and the STEP 2 modules.
About this assignment
For an introduction to (or recap of) induction, look at Foundation Assignment 20. Assignment 20 contains a STEP 3 induction question (as well as a STEP 2 one).
Hints, support and self evaluation
The “Hints" file gives suggestions and some starting points on how you can tackle the questions. The "Solutions" file leads you through one possible solution, but some steps will be missing and you will still need to work through the question yourself.
