All DP mathematics courses serve to accommodate the diverse range of needs, interests and abilities of students, and to fulfill the requirements of various university and career aspirations. The aims of these courses are to enable students to: develop mathematical knowledge, concepts, principles, logical, critical and creative thinking, employ and refine their powers of abstraction and generalization. Students are also encouraged to appreciate the international dimensions of mathematics and the multiplicity of its cultural and historical perspectives.
Probability concerns numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1, where 0 indicates impossibility of the event and 1 indicates certainty. In this chapter we learn about trials, outcomes, sample space and events, the probability of an event, complementary events, combined events, mutually exclusive events, conditional probability, probabilities of independent events, venn and tree diagrams and lastly table of outcomes.
