Rayann shows us techniques to make macrame designs using hemp for the creation of fun, interesting jewelry designs. She shows us four techniques. First she introduces us to the half-knot using four strands of hemp. The right-hand strand is brought across the others in the shape of a backwards four, while the left-hand strand is brought behind the others and through the loop created. A series of half knots will result in a spiral design along the length of the jewelry.

Fine Homebuilding with Jim Anderson demonstrates how to cut floor joists to length. Inspect the rim line to know where to set the joists. Set the joists to the layout on the rim line using a two man team. Tap a nail into the joist to keep it from moving around. Instead of standing the joists up to square them, cut them on both ends. Line the chalk line up with the rim line and snap the line across the joists to mark them. This will simultaneously measure and square them. Finally, line the joi...
In this video tutorial, viewers learn how to simplify expressions involving algebraic ratios. In some ways, simplifying algebraic radicals is easier than numeric radicals. When we are working with square roots, we need to find the highest even power of a variable to act as out perfect square. When working with cube roots, we look for the highest multiple of 3 as an exponent for our perfect square. This video is very descriptive and clearly explains all the functions of the formula. This video...
Cut a square or rectangle card. Similarly make another one but a square hole in the middle. Cut a square of page protector exactly same size of the card and paste it on the back side of the card with the hole using a glue or tape. Now paste a journaling or note you made to the middle of the card without the hole using glue. Place mounting tape on all four back sides of the card with the page protector. Now remove the outside of the mounting tape on three sides, not four. Place the card with j...
This video shows how to find the area of a circle using a formula. The formula for area of circle is pie multiplied by square of radius. Pie is actually an infinite number but for the sake of convenience we consider the value of pie as 3.14. So we multiply the square of radius with 3.14. Radius is the distance between the center point of the circle to any of the outside arcs. It is actually half of the diameter (diameter is the distance between two arcs of a circle). As an example here the ra...
This video describes how to cut potatoes in a variety of ways for cooking. Cutting potatoes can be tricky because the regular shape of a potato causes them to roll. To avoid this problem, just cut a sliver off the side of the potato to flatten the bottom. Then proceed to cut the potato in the way that you originally planned to. The video then goes on to explain how to make perfect French fries by cutting the potato a certain way. To do so, start by cutting off the side of the potato to give y...
JustMathTutoring This video shows the procedure of finding derivatives using the Chain Rule. The Chain Rule states that the derivative of a composition of functions is the derivative of the outside function evaluated at the inside multiplied by the derivative of the inside. This can be stated as if h(x) = f[g(x)] then h'(x)=f'[g(x)]g'(x). This is explained by two examples. In the first example we find the derivative of the sine of square of 'x'. We take the derivative of sine at square of 'x'...
In this video the instructor shows the different methods of solving quadratic equations. There are many methods to solve quadratic equations each with its pros and cons, each method suitable for a particular situation. The first method to solve quadratic equation is factoring. The advantage of using this method is that it is quick and easy. But the problem is not all equations can be factored very easily. This method requires a lot of practice and intuition. Use this method when the discrimin...
This video shows the detailed procedure to line a cake tin. Firstly, the demonstrator cuts off a square paper just smaller than the base of the tin. Then she measures off a length of paper for covering the sides. She folds it in half lengthwise twice. After careful folding and cutting off small triangular portions at the folds, she then skillfully places it to cover the sides completely. The last step in the procedure is to place the square paper for the base. She thus lines the cake tin full...
To make a paper gift box is one of the simplest projects that you can create on your own. In order to do this you need some materials: a Square of Paper, a Pencil, a Ruler & a Folding Bone. Take any size square of paper and draw two lines diagonally from corner to corner. This will form a large X, marking the center of the square. In turn, fold each corner into the center of the square. Firmly crease the fold. Fold the first corner to the line of the first fold made on the opposite side. Repe...

This video shows you how to easily find the perimeter of a rectangle or even a square. The perimeter is the total length of the path that surrounds the area of a rectangle or a square (in this case). For a rectangle, the perimeter length is equal to 2L+2W, where L is the length and W is the width. For a square, the perimeter length is equal to 4L, where L is the length or simply one side. e.g.: L=3, W=2 => P(Perimeter) = 10. That's it! Good Luck!

For all origami enthusiasts, here is something new. This video details how to make your own origami enigma box. As with all origami pieces it can be made using just a single piece of paper. The paper is first folded, taking from two separate parallel ends, in such a way that both sides meet in the middle of the paper. This will make four rectangles when unfolded which are to be further folded into half to make eight. Now, the paper is to be taken from the other two ends and folded to meet in ...
