Can’t seem to find the mistake in your math? Instead of painfully combing through each line, let the new “Check my work” operation in Maple Learn help! Now in Maple Learn, you can type out a solution to a variety of math problems, and let Maple Learn check your work! Additionally, by signing on to Maple Learn and the Maple Calculator app, you can take a photo of your handwritten math, import it into Maple Learn, and check your work with the click of a button.

Whether you’re solving a system of linear equations or an algebra problem, computing an integral or a partial derivative, “Check my work” can help. Maple Learn will tell you which steps are “Ok” and which steps to double-check. If you get a step wrong, Maple Learn will point out which line has an error, then proceed to check whether the rest of your work followed the right procedure.

Here’s an example of a solution to a system of linear equations written out by hand. All I had to do was snap a picture in the Maple Calculator app, and Maple Learn instantly had my equation set ready to go in the Cloud Expressions menu. Then, I just clicked “Check my work” in the Context Panel.

Maple Learn identified that I was trying to solve a system with 3 equations, checked my steps, and concluded my solution set was correct.

What happens if you make a mistake? Here’s an example of evaluating an improper integral with a u-substitution that involves a limit. This time, I directly typed my steps into Maple Learn and pressed “Check my work” in the Context Panel. Check my work recognized the substitution step and noted what step was incorrect; can’t forget to change the limits of integration! After pointing out where my mistake was, Maple Learn continued to evaluate the rest of my steps while taking my error into account. It confirmed that the rest of the process was correct, even though the answer wasn’t.

After making my change in Maple Learn and checking again, I’ve found the correct value.

Checking your work has never been easier with Maple Learn. Whether you want to type your solution directly in Maple Learn or import math with Maple Calculator, the new “Check my work” feature has you covered.
