A second series of 12 programmes aimed at giving direct help to those having difficulty with O-level maths. 2: Volumes (2)
Solving examination questions is not simply a matter of knowing some formulas. Nor is it just the ability to chop up complicated shapes into more familiar volumes. Solving volume problems requires the mathematician's greatest ally-common sense; and in this programme, the realisation that a volume is a volume is a volume - whatever the shape.
