As pure math

I would like to ask about the mark scheme methods of finding the answers and solutions.
Now if I use another method and got correct answers I will lose marks or not

If a question specifies a method then you have to use it, otherwise any mathematically valid method is acceptable. Markers sometimes have to refer a candidate response for review by a senior marker if a very unusual method is used. Mark schemes will often show multiple alternative methods. Proof and show that questions can be problematic if you use a non-standard way of attempting the proof.
