in https://4unitmaths.com/2024-e2-5-papers.zip are the 2024 papers from barker, fort st, killara, north sydney girls and sydney grammar and here are the proof questions

barker: Q11d, 14a, 14b

killara: Q1, 2, 8, 12a, 12b, 13a, 13b, 14a, 16b

north sydney girls: Q9, 11e, 13c, 14c, 16a, 16b

sydney grammar: Q8, 10, 12e, 13d, 14b

notes:

1. barker q12 is missing, but you can guess from the solution what the question was and it wan't a proof question

2. fort st had lots of questions like show blah blah about vectors, complex numbers etc, which are technically proofs but won't be included here because they are in those topics, not the proof topic - but they didn't seem to have proof-topic-specific questions

so now we are up to 469

you reckon we can get to 500 (or maybe approx 495) by hsc? maybe if it is approx 495 and we get about 5 in hsc that will make 500 in 5 years.

In this you can get the bos trials and if we restrict it just to 2020-2023 we see this: https://boredofstudies.org/resource...ension-2-2012-2023-exams-and-solutions.17485/

2020: Q8, 11e, 12d, 13b, 13c, 15b, 16b

2021: Q3, 9, 12d, 12e, 15b, 16b

2022: Q3, 11e, 12a, 14c, 15b, 16a

2023: Q13a, 13b, 15b

and the yet-to-be-released 2024: Q4, 12c, 16a, 16b, 16c

the 2024 Q16c is a proof of irrationality of π and follows Niven's 1947 proof published here:

Niven, Ivan (1947), "A simple proof that π is irrational", Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society, vol. 53, no. 6, p. 509


so now it is 500

well i might be jumping the gun there, i am assuming the bos one will come out before the hsc, and then it will be 500

- or the hsc may come first with 5 proofs and then it will be 500

so lets say 495 for now
