Thankyou very much, as you said, actually understanding why it works makes it a lot easier to use, i was slightly confused (Despite have the formula in a formula booklet for my exam) but now that I understand it, questions seem a lot easier.
im sure you've been told enough how great your videos are :) But still. THEY ARE GREAT
I'm just picking and choosing amongst the things that were unclear to me in Calc; What video is it where he explains what dx is? My teacher only taught us the "mechanical" way to do equations like he referenced in the last video.
@pwngo I'm not sure he really explains what dx is. But basically dx is the infinitely small change in x. That's the reason why the derivative is written as dy/dx. It's the infinitely small change in y over the infinitely small change in x.
Great stuff. This is the one and only section of Calculus that's really been throwing me off this semester, but I've finally been able to visualize the concept thanks to your videos. Many thanks!
you should take a profession in teaching. seriously. You're one of the best (if not the best) tutor/teacher I've EVER had.... And i've never even met you!
dude, you are AWESOME!! i understand you even more than my teacher in college and my native language is Spanish. Imagine how good you are if i can understand YOU better.
@dawodchatha I think you are mistaken...wouldn't pi be considered the coefficient of x and so just carry over? If it were the antiderivative of pi PLUS x, then you would be right.
this is so much better than any math textbook or dry step by step guide ive ever read showing how to solve thse questions. If only every math class had a lecture set of videos describing their concepts rather than boring chapters in a textbook i think a lot more people would understand math in general. thank you very much for these videos
I wish u were my teacher. I have sat and worried and fussed and hollered at everyone and couldnt figure it out. You made it so easy. Thanks man. Ur the greatest.

No offense, but you shouldn't be learning calculus if you don't even know the equation for a circle. You should have learned that in math class by now.
No offense, but I was raised by wolves and I actually discovered the equation for a circle without any human contact by age 9. You should have learned that in math class by now.
lol you should definitely pick up a copy of mathematica and just copy the graphs beforehand. these are a huge help.

the volume formula is to remember that the volume is equal to the definite integral of the cross-sectional area of the solid.

Amazing video. Just wondering, why don't you include the 'dx' of the volume function when finding its integral?
