How To: Match quadratic functions

This is the demo showing how match quadratic equations in the graphs. Plug in x=0. So everything with x cannot disappear. There is only one negative three in the equations. Let's look at the equations that has the four as y in the set. One of the difference between each equations are the negative in front of the x square and not in the second one. B is the set which opens down and C is the set which opens. Now lets look zero as y on each set. Both of them are opened. Let's look at X intercepts.

How To: Use the "Ortega method" to solve a 2x2 Rubik's Cube

This is a video tutorial on how to solve a 2x2 Rubik's cube using the Ortega method. The tip from the author is to go for the color whose maximum squares are already together. It is also pointed out that not only does the Ortega method involve three steps, which is time consuming, people using it also tend to take pauses in-between, drastically reducing one's solving speed. This tutorial provides tips on how to reduce and eliminate such time consuming pauses.

How To: Calculate acceleration of a car

This video teaches how to calculate the acceleration of a car. The information for this calculation is for a car that accelerates by 12 meters per second in a time of 3 seconds. So to calculate acceleration use the following formula: acceleration equals change of speed divided by time. So, using the information provided for this calculation, acceleration equals 12 meters per second divided by a time of 3 seconds. So this gives an acceleration of 4 meters per second squared.

How To: Find the sides of a 45-45-90 right triangle

First you want to find X using the identities given for a 45-45-90 triangle. When comparing the triangles in the video, we find that X must be 6. Next, use the identity to solve for the measurements of the sides of the triangle. In the video example, 6 is the length of the two sides and 6 times the square root of 2 is the length of the hypotenuse. The video is very short and does not explain a lot of things in detail, but that is because the examples are easy to figure out.

How To: Find the area of complex figures

In this tutorial the author explains how to compute the area of a complex figure.

How To: Calculate the area & circumference of a circle

PapaPodcast's Peter shows us how to calculate the Area and Circumference of a Circle. Area is the amount of square units used to cover a circle. Circumference is the units around the edge of a circle. To calculate these two units we must find a radius and diameter. Diameter is a segment that joins two points on a circle and passes through the center of the circle. Radius is half of this amount. Watch the rest of the video to figure out how to use the radius and diameter to get the Area and Ci...
