Stage 2 Specialist Mathematics
Assessment Type 2: Mathematical Investigation
Topic 5 – Integration Techniques and Applications
Mathematics can be used to model the shapes of objects. In the first part of this investigation the cross
section of the bowl of a wine glass is modelled with the aim to mathematically obtain a reasonable
volume of the glass. The second part of the investigation allows different objects to be modelled to find
their volume.
bowl
stem
base
Wine glass
Ensure the following points are addressed in this investigation.
Wine Glass:
Mathematically model the shape of the cross-section of the bowl of a chosen wine glass.
You may use your knowledge of inverse functions to find a 1-1 function to rotate about the
xaxis, or otherwise, to find the volume of the glass.
Investigate adjusting your model (see the flow chart on page 2) to improve the accuracy of the
volume calculated compared to the actual volume of the chosen wine glass.
Discuss the reasonableness of the results.
Another Object:
Consider another object and find its actual volume discussing the process used.
Develop a mathematical model to find an approximate volume. Use the flow chart on page 2 to
adjust the model to improve the answer you have found mathematically.
Compare the actual volume and calculated volume and discuss the reasonableness of the
results.

The format of the investigation report may be written or multimodal. The report should include the
following:
an outline of the problem and context
the method required to find a solution, in terms of the mathematical model or strategy used
the application of the mathematical model or strategy, including
o relevant data and/or information o mathematical calculations and results, using
appropriate representations o the analysis and interpretation of results, including
consideration of the reasonableness and limitations of the results
the results and conclusions in the context of the problem.
A bibliography and appendices, as appropriate, may be used.
The investigation report, excluding bibliography and appendices if used, must be a maximum of 15
A4 pages if written, or the equivalent in multimodal form. The maximum page limit is for single-sided
A4 pages with minimum font size 10. Page reduction, such as 2 A4 pages reduced to fit on 1 A4
page, is not acceptable. Conclusions, interpretations and/or arguments that are required for the
assessment must be presented in the report, and not in an appendix. Appendices are used only to
support the report, and do not form part of the assessment decision.
