  • 👉 Learn how to write the equation of a parabola given three points. The equation of a parabola is of the form f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c, where a, b and c are constants. Since, the equation of a parabola has 3 constants, three equations and hence three points are needed to solve/obtain the equation of a parabola.
    Given three points on a parabola, we use the standard form of a quadratic equation to set up a system of three linear equations which we solve to obtain: a, b, and c and hence, the equation of the parabola.

    As someone who makes B's or better and has taken many math classes, I've struggled with math but found a way to understand it better. I took business Calculus and made an A. How I did that, youtube videos. I don’t know you, but your videos have helped me so much that I'm passing trigonometry because of you. You explain focus, vertex, and more so much easier.

    Thanks for the video. I am trying to learn more math. I am a semi-retired music teacher from NY.

    • @brianmclogan
      @brianmclogan  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      you are very welcome! Curious, what brings you back to learning more math?

    • @nidurnevets
      @nidurnevets 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have always had an appreciation for math, but I only took the required courses when I was in school. I majored in psych., in college, but ended up in the music teaching field.( I come from a family of people in the arts.) I taught, primarily, the string instruments in my thirty something years in the schools. When I retired from the schools (I am continuing to work with private students) I decided I would try to learn calculus. I quickly realized that my basic math skills were so poor that I would have to learn/relearn the math that leads up to it to get anywhere at all. I have had a little help from a physicist, whose daughter I taught for several years, but it has mainly been a haphazard process on my part. I have made some headway in my understanding. It has been good for my teaching to move to the other side of the "equation," and have the "I don't get this at all" experience. One can forget that experience if too much time is spent in familiar territory. I also think it is good to push the mind in directions it doesn't usually go, especially as one gets older. Thanks for asking!

    • @brianmclogan
      @brianmclogan  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      cheers I very much agree with you. Many people blame mathematics because much of what we teach is not applicable to real life, which yes I agree and understand. On the other side of the coin we have done a poor job for many years not allowing students to be intrigued with mathematics and explore its beauty for the sake of learning. (focus on processes, tests and tricks) I hope as you continue this journey to notice the connections and simplicity of mathematics that will help you strive to continue to want to learn more. That is what the study of mathematics has brought to me and I am so thankful I was able to experience it. It really is the language of our universe. Kudos to you.

    • @nidurnevets
      @nidurnevets 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for your wonderful reply. The connections in mathematics intrigue me. When I grasp something of that nature it is fascinating! Sometimes I see the hint of a connection somewhere but can't quite put it all together. I think it has improved my thinking in general, and it has lead to improvements in my teaching and understanding of music. All the best!
