Host: Shahriyar is a Maths Teacher at a School in Northwest London, teaching years 7 to 11. He graduated from the University of Warwick in 2013 and set off to China for two years teaching IGCSE and A-Level Economics. Do you need a refresher on how to calculate the volume of a cylinder and a cone? In this class students will learn about calculating the volume of a cylinder and cone and how to calculate the volume of a 3D shape with a consistent cross-section. By the end of the class, students will be able to derive the formula of a cone and subsequently calculate the volume of a cone. This class is aimed at students in Years 8 - 11 and is great for a quick refresher on the concept.
