Transversals are one of many mathematical concepts that students learn in geometry. Although they can seem mysterious this is a foundational idea that reappears in higher level mathematics. We will learn about interior/exterior angles corresponding angles and so much more in this video.

Circles: VIDEO

The video found below explains many of the terms associated with circles. Anyone who is familiar with trigonometry knows the importance of circles in that course. For now, only basic ideas will be explored such as radius, diameter, and chord. However, future videos will deal with more advanced ideas.

Regular Polygons: VIDEO

This video will show you how to calculate the degrees of each angle inside a polygon. The calculation is not too complicated and this is commonly taught to high school students who are studying geometry. Mastery of this concept can help with learning other ideas.

Angle Types: VIDEO

Understanding the various angle types is important in geometry. At first, this is confusing, however, with time this becomes easier. This is important because completing more advanced analysis requires that identifying angle types is automatic for the student. Often, the only way to make this easier is through practice. In the video below, we will learn about various angle types.

Lines and More in Geometry VIDEO

Perpendicular & Parallel lines are basic ideas found in geometry. The video below explains the various types of lines a student will encounter in geometry. Some of the ideas discussed include parallel lines, perpendicular lines, midpoints, bisectors, etc. Be sure to leave a comment about the video below.

Set Symbolism: VIDEO

Set Symbolism is important. In the video below it is introduced in the context of geometry but set symbolism is also used when talking about probability. It can be hard to appreciate learning this at times but it is useful in certain situations.

Planes in Geometry: VIDEO
