How To: Fold a frog using origami

Kevin demonstrates how to make a paper frog. Take a regular sheet of construction paper. Fold the outer ends towards the center forming a triangle. Fold a crease at the base of the triangle and cut it out. Open the folds and you can observe two creases. Create two X-shaped creases by bending the opposite corners. Hold the triangles on the side of the X and squash it down such that the other two triangles meet. Repeat the process on the other side. This forms a square with a diagonal cut conta...

How To: Solve math problems using proportions

Proportions or ratios are fundamental concepts of mathematics. A proportions is an equation that states that two ratios are equal. Hence proportion can be written in two ways as a:b=c:d or a/b=c/d. In these equations a and d are called as extremes and b,c are called as means. So when working with proportions we can state that product of the means is equal to the product of the extremes i.e. a*d = b*c. This is obtained by cross multiplying the second form of proportions. In mathematics you are...

How To: Measure borders when quilting

How To: Solve word problems using proportions

This video shows the method to solve word problems using proportions. In the given problem, we have to find the time taken by a person to type 390 words if the person takes 1 minute to type 30 words. This can be solved using proportions. We take two fractions which are equal. We type '30 words' in the numerator of the first fraction and 1 minute in its denominator. This fraction must be proportional to the second fraction. The second fraction has '390 words' in the numerator and the variable ...

How To: Fix a frozen iPod in 55 seconds

You can fix a frozen iPod fairly quick. All you have to do is hold the menu and action buttons until your screen goes black. The top button on the click wheel is the menu button and it says menu. The button in the center of the click wheel is the action button. When you hold both of those buttons the screen goes black after a few seconds. What it is actually doing is restarting the iPod. It will take about 55 seconds for the iPod to reboot and when it does it will work fine again.

How To: Add and subtract integers

In this video the instructor teaches how to add and subtract integers. When adding or subtracting two numbers there can be four kind of situations depending on the signs between the numbers. When you are adding two numbers which are both positive then you move forward on the number line adding the two numbers together to give the result. Similarly when adding two negative numbers together then you move left side of the number line. Go to the left by the value of first number and go further le...

How To: Multiply binomials with the FOIL method

Multiplying polynomials is a distributive property. If you are given with two binomials and asked to multiply them, you need to apply the distributive property and multiply the terms of binomial with the terms of second binomial. To do this first take a term of first binomial and multiply it with the second complete binomial. Now take the second term of first binomial and multiply it with the second binomial adding or subtracting it from the previous result depending on the sign between the f...

How To: Find the slope of a line given 2 points

In this video the instructor shows how to find the slope of a line given two points that like on the line. Slope of a line is the measure of the steepness of the line compared to the angle made by the line with the x-axes. A line with positive slope slants forwards and a line with a negative slope slants backwards and a line parallel to x axes has zero slope. So if you are given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), the slope of the line passing through those two points is equal to m = (y2 - y1)/...

How To: Factor the difference of squares

In this video the instructor shows how to factor the difference of squares using a formula. The formula to find the difference of squares can only be applied if you have two perfect squares. The formula is (a * a - b * b) = (a - b) * (a + b). That is the difference of squares of two numbers is the product of sum of two numbers and difference of two numbers. So when you need to find the difference of squares of two numbers substitute the values in the above formula to directly solve for the fa...

How To: Make a paper box in 30 seconds

This video from Origami in 30 Seconds demonstrates how to make a paper box in 30 seconds. Start with a square piece of paper and fold it diagonally to make triangles from both corners. Unfold it, and fold each corner into the middle. Unfold two of the sides and fold the edges of the other sides toward the middle. Turn it over and fold the triangular corners back so they touch in the middle. Fold the corners over backwards. Take the two sides and pull them out, and fold the outside corners in ...

How To: Sketch the graph of a piecewise function

This video teaches us to draw the graph of a piecewise function. This is shown using two examples. In the first example we have 'y' equal to 'x + 2' for x less than zero and '1 - x' for x greater than equal to zero. We plot two points on the function for x less than zero and do the same for the function with x greater than equal to zero. The graph for the first function is erased for x greater than equal to zero, and the same is done for the second function for x less than zero. Note that the...

How To: Solve a linear system by elimination method

This video is about using the elimination method to solve a linear system. The lady presenting this video says that elimination method means that one of the two variables has to be eliminated while adding up the two linear equations. She then explains the example equations 6x-2y=66 and 5y=-29-2x. She asks you to first line up x and y. So the second equation is rewritten as 2x+5y=-29. Then she says that, to eliminate a variable, we should have their variables equal in value but of opposite sig...

How To: Find the sum of reciprocals of complex numbers

In this tutorial the instructor shows how to calculate the sum of reciprocals of complex numbers. If you have to find out the sum of the reciprocals of two complex numbers first you will have to find out the least common multiple of the denominators. To do this multiply the numerator and denominator of the first fraction by the second complex number. Similarly multiply the numerator and denominator of the second fraction by the first complex number. Now you will have two fractions whose denom...

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.
