IB2 AA HL Test Makeup Vectors 2022

This math test contains 6 sections with multiple parts testing skills in vectors, planes, and geometry. Section I provides context for the test. Section II involves vectors defined by a and b and finding expressions for their dot product and angles. Section III involves properties of parallelograms defined by vectors a and b. Section IV tests skills with planes defined by points and their Cartesian equations. Section V involves finding equations of planes given points and relationships between planes. Section VI tests geometric relationships between points, midpoints, and lengths on a diagram involving vectors a and b.
