GCSE Secondary Maths Age 13-17 - Geometry & Measures: Bearings. Distance, Speed, Time. - Explained

The video tutorial covers the concept of bearings, explaining how to calculate the bearing of London from Manchester using parallel lines and basic angle facts. It also discusses the application of the distance-speed-time formula to determine the arrival time of a plane traveling between the two airports. The tutorial emphasizes careful reading of questions and provides tips for maximizing marks in exams.

What is the initial step in solving a bearing problem?

• Finding the speed

• Estimating the time

• Drawing a diagram
