Section 1 - Video Tutorials
The GCSE math lesson on Perimeters, Areas and Volumes consists of 3 educational video tutorials and investigates how working out the Perimeter, Area and Volume of distinct 2D and 3D shapes can help you to understand the amount of space taken up by a body of liquid. Start learning more about Perimeters, Areas and Volumes today.
Section 2 - Practice Questions
Test yourself on what you have learned from the educational video tutorials in Section 1 with these multiple choice practice questions. If you are unsure on how to answer the questions, then we recommend you re-watch the video tutorials, because you will be able to follow the concepts and/or methods much better once you know what to expect. Practice makes perfect!
Section 3 - Exam Style Questions
The multiple choice practice questions in Section 2 have hopefully improved your confidence and understanding of this GCSE math topic. Have a go answering these exam style questions on Perimeters, Areas and Volumes. These are the types of questions that you may come across in your GCSE math exams.
Section 4 - Challenging Questions
After completing the exam style questions in Section 3, you should feel confident with Perimeters, Areas and Volumes. However, what makes these questions in Section 4 any different? Well, these exam style questions focus on Perimeters, Areas and Volumes, but combine topics covered in previous GCSE math lessons across the Maths Target curriculum. We recommend you use a spare piece of paper to write down your workings out and then check against the mark scheme.
