Your the first Math teacher I've seen that actually teaches you how to do a problem. I blew by Calc 1 and 2 because I could learn it from a book. The professors at my school would spend all class deriving a formula we need to know and assign us problems on it without giving an example. I work in the math tutoring center at my school now and I always tell the people coming in to look at your videos. The way you teach a problem works wonders.
I just have to say, thank you SO much! I've struggled this past year with my math teacher because he teaches so abstractly, but you have explained every thing perfectly so that I understand. Thank you so much for making math comprehend able :)
Dude...thank you. You have no idea how much this helps when a freaking teacher at a private school fails to properly teach me making me resort to TH-cam. But I'm so glad that I am on TH-cam watching your video right now - because this is so simple to understand, so well explained, and just so straightforward. AT A GREAT PACE TOO. I'm going to go on that website now, because this...is best as it can get.
It's funny how I feel like I lose more and more of my grasp of the fundamentals the deeper I go in calc 1. Always so many new things to learn and it's like pushing all the other stuff away. I grow more stupid every day I try to do my math homework. Thank you to PatrickJMT for trying to teach me mathematics :)
The problem with a lot of people I noticed by tutoring is that they don't have the correct thought process on how to tackle a problem. Most math teachers will just write it out and say this is how it's solved. You actually explain your own thought process which is vital to a lot of students. Where to start a problem seems to be the biggest issue to a lot of kids. I use this approach when learning myself now. For every topic, I write down a list of steps on how to think and compute the problem.
Years later and here I am looking up the same videos i did when i was enrolled courses that taught this content... Now prepping for my FE exam and just given ya a shout out! thanks much
I have literally tears in my eyes watching this... All this time I was picked up how bad my Analytical Geometry and calculus was. Even teachers made fun of me... But after watching your videos... Its a miracle how fast ive improved... You made it look so easy for me...... Bless dude bless!
you are a very good teacher. I'm learning on Khan Academy, but he does not have videos on everything. This is a perfect alternative. Thank you very much!
You are a great teacher.. Whenever I need some help on my math homework, I just type it in on youtube, and it's there.. Very helpful, very easy to understand, just good overall. Thanks!
see what's funny is that I don't even trust any other video rather than this guy anymore. If my teacher says something different, I'll doubt it very much haha. Keep it up Patrick. People love you
Wow someone that teaches that you can actually understand. Calc 1 teacher was Chinese, Calc 2 teacher was Russian... Helped me get through Calc 2 considering i could not understand what he was saying... Thanks
its the last day before the final and my mind is so tired and I'm having a hard to teaching myself at home (as I've bee doing the entire quarter) so thank you a lot for teaching me... you saved me a lot of stress, and a lot of time
Thank you so much you taught me more in 10 minutes than my teacher in 2 hours. I will donate as soon as I am old enough to make a pay pal account thanks... Andrew
find it much easier to move along the x-axis find the given 'r' value first. Then you simply rotate the "line" the stated amount to reach your polar coordinate. For example: in problem b) I would move left 2 coordinates on the x-axis (to get to -2), and then I would rotate the line π/4 units counter clockwise (just as a normal unit circle would rotate) to get to the polar coordinate (2,π/4). Keep up the great work Patrick!!!
@matics19 well, i think people find them from a google or youtube search anyways. i am not sure a flashy banner makes any difference. and anyways, i am not a flashy guy. if people watch, that is fine. if not, that is fine too!
Patrick, I LOVE your videos, but they make me overly confident for the exam. xD You give very doable problems and it is easy to understand, but then my professor will give a problem that's 10x as hard. Could you post really challenging problems as well? Thanks! Great video, though.
Oh god.... You don't know how thankful I am to stumbleupon to have found your website. THANK YOU FOR ALL THIS VIDEOS. Now understanding double and tripple integration is possible and I'll pass Calculus III. Than you! ('':
@Andrew Lee at 8:40 if you remember the unit circle, then at 240 degrees, Sin(x) equals -root 3/ 2 and Cos(x) = -1/2. Sin(x)/ Cos(x) = tan(x), so (-root 3/ 2)/ (-1/2) = simply root 3, which is 4 pi/ 3. I was having difficulty with this problem too until I realized that it simply uses the basics of the unit circle.
dude i love you!!! xD once i get done with my engineering, i will probably study mathematics. i love math but sometimes it gets harder, but i think that's what i like about it lol.
these videos are a great help. You help to explain everything very well alot better than most teachers I have had. I know this is probably dumb to ask but the integral of x*e^x^2 alway give me trouble remembering any help anyone.
Earlier in the video, it is shown that Tanθ=x/y. If you take the angle from the dotted line to the negative x axis (i.e. start on the dotted line, and move clockwise until you hit the first line, the negative x axis line), and find that angle (R), it is π/3. You use TanR=O/A, with A=1, and O=√3. Then R=Tan-1( (√3)/1 ), so R=π/3. Then Patrick has taken the positive angle, so he starts from the positive x axis, and moves anti-clockwise until he hits the line, so θ = π+R = π + (π/3) =4π/3
I honestly should be paying half of my tuition to you since I learn everything from you.
+David Biel I'll send an address! Or be a patron on 'patreon'!
Patrick, you are my savior. I took Calc 2 this semester and you guided me through it like some bearded messiah.
11 years later and this is still a great help. Thank you so much!
there is a donation page on my website (there is a link on my channel) !

Man! Thank you! I watched dozens of videos and nobody could explain it as clear as you did!
@matics19 yea, i do not do much of the flashy advertising stuff. maybe i should
Patrick, you are truly a life saver. These videos are the only reason I'm passing my classes. Thanks for the taking the time to make them.

Thank you PatrickJMT soo much for sharing your wisdom with the world. It's very well appreciated. Your explanations are rich. Keep up the great work.
@nothingelsetodo69 people seem to like khanacademy , but come back here for math! :)

Usually typing "pi" if you're doing homework or some sort of math program, that program will recognize it. similar to using sqrt() for square root.
you deserve the nobel peace prize :)
Thank you very Much , as a civil engineering student who have been out class all the time , This helped more than I was gonna deserve.
One day I will learn all your videos and I will conquer the World....for better or worse!
you should be proud of your teaching abilities. you have contributed knowledge and relief to many young students. major props.
Years later and here I am looking up the same videos i did when i was enrolled courses that taught this content... Now prepping for my FE exam and just given ya a shout out! thanks much
good luck! :)

brilliant man, u explain excellently
you are a very good teacher. I'm learning on Khan Academy, but he does not have videos on everything. This is a perfect alternative. Thank you very much!
my videos are better :)
I think so, too.
@whoatonia glad u like them : )
you are the best man > I hope u've successful life wish u the best
You are a great teacher.. Whenever I need some help on my math homework, I just type it in on youtube, and it's there..
Very helpful, very easy to understand, just good overall. Thanks!
Bad ass examples man! very well appreciated!
Been getting this ad asking if these videos from 5 years ago actually help
Screw those ads yes these are
On my planet, we use hyper-polar coordinates to calculate 11 dimensional shapes, you humans have a long way to go.
+Grey Alien Jesus christ, your numbering system must be insane.
+Grey Alien....we have cat videos....
+Andrew Massey hahahahaha that is a good one ahahaha
we have dank memes
ha you know only 11 dimensions.....how funny....we know 26 dimensions...call Hawking to better suggestion
youre a genius, 2nd day and 2nd time actually helping me with my homework, you sir just gained another subscriber
yah seriously helps a lot!! you are helping numerous people!! how to donate
see what's funny is that I don't even trust any other video rather than this guy anymore. If my teacher says something different, I'll doubt it very much haha. Keep it up Patrick. People love you
Thank you again, for making a corner of sanity and sense here. You've won the hearts of a million frustrated students
Have a test tommorrow, didn't have clue about polar coordinates before, now I do! Thanks heaps man!!!! :D
It's really good, now I got it, thanks for great job
every time i search for math help... i pray that you have examples! so helpful!!
thanks a lot man for your videos learned a lot from it.
Your videos are the only ones worth liking on TH-cam
I am going to pass my final thanks to you!
You seriously save my life when I miss a lecture. Thank you!
wow some good stuffs their Patrick.Thanks
Great refresher, thanks
Wow someone that teaches that you can actually understand. Calc 1 teacher was Chinese, Calc 2 teacher was Russian... Helped me get through Calc 2 considering i could not understand what he was saying... Thanks
Hi, I'm here 45 minutes before my exam, and Patrick is indeed saving lives everywhere!!! Thank you.
Patrick no one, but one million of thanks for a wonderful video and so helpful.
God bless you Patrick.
Thanks
Thanks so much for a well-rounded clear explanation, Patrick! This greatly helped!
ha, back at cha brotha!
thanks for looking out for me on the other video in regards to the annotations
i love your handwriting
its the last day before the final and my mind is so tired and I'm having a hard to teaching myself at home (as I've bee doing the entire quarter)
so thank you a lot for teaching me... you saved me a lot of stress, and a lot of time
This was very helpful, I have an FP2 A-Level exam tomorrow and this lays down basics for me..
Thank you so much you taught me more in 10 minutes than my teacher in 2 hours.
I will donate as soon as I am old enough to make a pay pal account thanks...
Andrew
learned more in these 10 minutes than a week in class. thank you my good sir.
Dude you rocks man!! I hated them in my first year but now you made me love them.. You made is sound SO EASY.. Thanks a lot dude
Have a midterm on Monday and these videos are really helping. :)
this is the best explanation i found on the basics of polar coordinates!! Thank you so frikken much, this just saved my IB Math lab report :)
dude this video was so crucial, you r 5 times better than my math teacher. mad props. 213.
my man summarized a 3 hour lecture in 10 minutes
after watching this, am like. why is this so easy?
but then again your explanation does a lot to make it easy thanks man
nice thanks man! sometimes just watch your videos to remind my self of things we've already done so I don't forget them for the final
find it much easier to move along the x-axis find the given 'r' value first. Then you simply rotate the "line" the stated amount to reach your polar coordinate.

Keep up the great work Patrick!!!
Thank you so much Patrick, You have helped me thoroughly with Math, allowing me to get
high marks on all of my tests and assignments, thank you!@!
thank you so much!!! since i've watched your videos, my grades have improved. some people just can't teach math- like my TA!!
@matics19 well, i think people find them from a google or youtube search anyways. i am not sure a flashy banner makes any difference. and anyways, i am not a flashy guy. if people watch, that is fine. if not, that is fine too!
thanks a lot man for all the videos , i watched them over the summer and learned more than what i learned in class :D
this kind of video deserves a Nobel Peace Prize!!!!!
no problem
glad the vids help! good luck in your class!
Patrick, I LOVE your videos, but they make me overly confident for the exam. xD You give very doable problems and it is easy to understand, but then my professor will give a problem that's 10x as hard. Could you post really challenging problems as well? Thanks! Great video, though.
well this video is entitled 'polar coordinates - the basics' and not 'polar coordinates - the hardest problems ever' !
Touche..
+arielartista i'm 2 years late but daaaamn. #triggered
I think Patrick makes these videos for two reasons- to help others and also to leave sassy replies.
Did you handle the professor?
you are very welcome
i don't have a further math teacher in my school so thank you so much for the video. may god bless you :)
You are the best sir the way you explain is really awesome and from now i am going to refer your videos for maths and i subscribed to your channel.
@hisyam9 you are very welcome : )
Oh god.... You don't know how thankful I am to stumbleupon to have found your website. THANK YOU FOR ALL THIS VIDEOS. Now understanding double and tripple integration is possible and I'll pass Calculus III. Than you! ('':

Nice video. You really help more than my teacher, which is not a surprise.
Very helpful and straight forward! This video correlated exactly with my homework.
you saved me 30 mins before my math 150 test. many thanks
Thanks for the brief intro. Needed a refresher.
Thanks very helpful.... you should be a math teacher. My high school needs a guy like your.
Thanks man your the best!!! Now I feel more confident about my calculus exam.
Thank you, for helping me, to understand polar coordinates better!
dude i love you!!! xD
once i get done with my engineering, i will probably study mathematics.
i love math but sometimes it gets harder, but i think that's what i like about it lol.
these videos are a great help. You help to explain everything very well alot better than most teachers I have had. I know this is probably dumb to ask but the integral of x*e^x^2 alway give me trouble remembering any help anyone.
EXACTLY the answer I was looking for! Thanks.
You have been nothing but my "Math Angel".

Then Patrick has taken the positive angle, so he starts from the positive x axis, and moves anti-clockwise until he hits the line, so θ = π+R = π + (π/3) =4π/3
thanks so much! this really helped me prepare for my test tommorow (:
I seriously love you right now
WOW, i never used much of these, only in calc II. Good review, and explained very well :)
PatrickJMT, your a buddy to all of us!
Keep ROCKING \m/
so guys, do you know a channel as epic as patrick that explains physics? That would be great
Thanks, great video for last minute tips on the Math II SAT Subject Test :D
Thanks a lot!! 😀My teachers made it look so hard. Keep up the good work 😃
Saving my life in my Multidimensional Math Course
Brilliant! Really helping me understand Kepler's first law, thanks!! :)
@SuperSmarty7 the square root of 4 is 2.
not sure what that is
I have a math final and I i'm on the verge of C and D
Thanks to you i'm sitting at a C and i'm not going to lose my scholarships! =]
thanks, your videos really do help to understand maths!
not just free, but free and good : )
Very helpful and easy to read, thank you!
