Abstract

The study seeks to ascertain disparities in the enhanced mathematical reasoning abilities of students instructed using inquiry-based methods versus those taught using mathematics problem-solving educational approaches. Additionally, it aims to discern variations in the increased self-assurance of students taught with inquiry-based methods compared to those taught with mathematics problem-solving educational approaches. This study falls under the category of quasi-experimental research. This study is being conducted at a Higher Secondary School in Labuhan Batu regency during the academic year 2023/2024. The research schedule is organised to align with the school's activities. The research included a cohort of 72 high school students in the X-grade. The survey results indicate that students who use inquiry approaches and problem-solving approaches demonstrate different levels of improvement in their mathematical reasoning skills. Additionally, there are variations in the level of enhanced self-confidence among students who use Inquiry and Problem Solving Approaches. Furthermore, there is a clear distinction between the effects of inquiry and problem-solving approaches on students' mathematical reasoning ability and self-confidence
