Could you please try to put the diagram higher, above the auto captions as I’m deaf and sometime can’t see the diagram and question if it is overlapped with captions. Thank you, and I appreciate your channel, it has helped with my math GSCE a lot!

[@stmunch]

[@abdussattar4716]

Keep uploading these divine videos! 🤗🤗

[@TheGCSEMathsTutor]

I’ll do my best 😁🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@jonerasmus9399]

Good vid as usual. For the last question its easier to draw two triangles next to each other (like you did in previous questions) keeping bases 6 and 15 at the bottom . A bit easier if students still cant see which sides go where .

[@AH91021]

Sir can u make a video about Trigonemetric Graphs

[@TheGCSEMathsTutor]

I will do 😁👍🏼

[@YN-ry6cc]

Great video Please could I request that you make a video on questions that are applicable to maths and physics by which I mean exam style questions (easy and hard) on acceleration(initial velocity and final velocity) and also questions that involve acceleration velocity(final and initial) and distance aswell. It would be really helpful to me as I am struggling at the moment

I’ll be doing data very soon 😁👌🏼

[@byersvhs]

can you go through similar shape questions with length, area and volume (like all in one) ?

[@TheGCSEMathsTutor]

I’ve already done it! I’ve covered the whole curriculum!! Should be in the description 😁🙏🏼

[@sal2488]

Hi sir was wondering for the questions that it only mentions the parallel nature of the lines and not the fact that it’s similar, do you have to prove similarity before you can actually answer the question? Like in the way that you prove congruence with writing sentences.

[@CRISTIAN0SINGH]

omds i did not think i would get the last one right but i did

Excellent video sir good job!!

[@marymmoon1190]

u know for the questions that do not tell u if the trianlgles are mathmaticaly similiar would u always pick a tringle out of it or would the sometimes be other shapes that u must take out of like square?

[@TheGCSEMathsTutor]

It could be another shape, it’s not as common though! 😁

[@marymmoon1190]

@@TheGCSEMathsTutor have u got a video on it

[@alanszafarczyk4068]

It's a bit like Multiplying and Dividing

[@SollyTheKid]

how much for the intro

[@peterbradshaw8018]

Instead of relying on a calculator it would pay inestimable dividends to learn how to divide and multiply fractions.

[@c0munguyforcaz]

My teacher told me to watch this, like if you're from my school
