ENM1500 Tutorial WK 3

This document contains a tutorial on geometry with skill builders involving solving equations for variables and rearranging formulas. It also contains two application problems: 1) Finding the area of a piece of wallboard with two circular cutouts and calculating the volume if made three-dimensional. 2) Using mirror reflection and angle properties to calculate the height of a flagpole given distances from the observer to the mirror and from the mirror to the base of the flagpole.
