Description
Uses computer-rendered models to illustrate five essential topics in mathematics. These include how the Golden Ratio is calculated and applied, the ratio of similitude and how it relates to the Pythagorean Theorem and fractals, defining pi, Hippocratic crescents, and cylindrical and conic sections--container.

In this video we'll learn how to find the surface area of cylinders, which we'll do by finding the area of the base (the area of a circle), and multiplying that by 2 to account for the surface area of the top and the bottom of the cylinder. The surface area of the side we'll find by recognizing that the side is a rectangle with length equal to the circumference of the circular base, and width equal to the height of the cylinder.

In this video we'll learn how to find the surface area of right rectangular prisms. Since opposite faces of the prism are congruent, we can find the area of the base and multiply it by 2 in order to account for the surface area of the top and bottom; find the area of the left face and multiply it by 2 in order to account for the surface area of the left and right; and find the area of the front face and multiply it by 2 in order to account for the...

In this video we'll learn how to find the surface area of right circular Cones. A right circular cone is a cone whose base is a circle and that has a right angle (90-degree angle) between the base of the cone and it's altitude. When we find the surface area of a cone, we'll use the formula for the area of a circle in order to find the area of the base of the cone, and then we'll use the slant height of the cone in order to find the surface area of...

In this video we'll learn how to find the surface area of regular pyramids. Since all of the lateral faces of the pyramid are congruent, we can always use the same formula for surface area. We'll just need to know the perimeter of the base, the slant height of the lateral faces, and the area of the base.

In this video we'll learn how to find the volume of Spheres. We'll always use the same volume formula, which only requires us to know the length of the radius of the sphere. If we've been given the length of the diameter, we can just take half of the diameter to get the radius, and then plug the radius into the volume formula.
