Official WAEC General Mathematics / Mathematics (Core) outline · Section C: Mensuration & Geometry

Content

Perimeters, arc lengths, areas of plane shapes/sectors, surface areas and volumes of 3D solids (cubes, cylinders, cones, spheres), latitude/longitude, angle properties, parallel lines, triangle/polygon properties, circle theorems, geometric constructions, 2D loci, straight line coordinate geometry

Objective

Calculate arc lengths, perimeters, plane areas, and 3D surface areas/volumes; calculate distances along latitudes and longitudes; apply geometric angle rules, triangle congruence, polygon sum of angles, and circle theorems; construct bisectors, angles, triangles, and quadrilaterals; determine 2D loci intersections; calculate line midpoints, distances, gradients, and straight line equations.
