The population of this research is all MTs students. Al-Ishlahussibyan, with the sample of this study being class IX students, data collection was carried out by administering an evaluation test of students' mathematics learning outcomes and a questionnaire of students' interest in learning mathematics, the results showed that there was an increase in the average learning outcomes of 57.98 out of 28, 77 in Cycle I and became 86.75 in Cycle II, as well as increasing students' interest in learning mathematics from cycle I with a positive category to Cycle II becoming a very positive category, it can be concluded that the use of the guided inquiry method can increase students' interest and learning outcomes in mathematics in class IX at MTs.
