lilyserbest Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 I want to do my topic on continuous fractions and I find it very interesting, and I don't take SL maths. Most of the people I see doing this topic are past Math SL students. Is it ok if I do it on continued fractions or should I do my math hl ia on something else?

kw0573 Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 It would be nice to relate continued fractions to infinite series and some Option Calculus stuff, like convergence of series. The trick is to relate non-syllabus topics to the syllabus as much as you can. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it ok if I write the maths such as golden ratio or the pi to this topic, or should I use mechanics and physics. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kw0573 Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 Including discussions of continued fractions of golden ratio and pi is a good idea. Be sure to connect the topic to other topics in the syllabus, such as inf geometric series, Calculus Option (if you have time to learn some of the convergence rules). Also be creative and see if you can "make up" some connections to other units as well, for example what probability questions can continued fractions answer.
