GCSE Secondary Maths Age 13-17 - Geometry & Measures: Area of irregular shapes - Explained

The video tutorial explains how to solve a geometry problem from a GCSE exam, focusing on calculating the area of a shaded region formed by a trapezium and two semicircles. The instructor guides through the process of finding the area of the trapezium using a formula, then calculating the area of the semicircles by treating them as a full circle. The final step involves subtracting the semicircle area from the trapezium area and rounding the result to three significant figures. The video also highlights the importance of remembering formulas and understanding the allocation of marks for each step.
