Precalculus on Khan Academy: You may think that precalculus is simply the course you take before calculus. You would be right, of course, but that definition doesn't mean anything unless you have some knowledge of what calculus is. Let's keep it simple, shall we? Calculus is a conceptual framework which provides systematic techniques for solving problems. These problems are appropriately applicable to analytic geometry and algebra. Therefore....precalculus gives you the background for the mathematical concepts, problems, issues and techniques that appear in calculus, including trigonometry, functions, complex numbers, vectors, matrices, and others. There you have it ladies and gentlemen....an introduction to precalculus!
About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

This video is terrific. We all think that the basis are always clear, but without realising we end up doing calculations without thinking what everything means.
Just a great way of explaining sir. Hands down.

“So I’m going to construct a unit circle here. So, construct a unit circle. So this right here is a unit circle, circle of radius one. So construct a... unit circle. That’s a unit circle.”
Nice
Yeah that is the only thing that bothers me from learning from him but still I can't find any one better than him
Most Khan Academy videos are pretty slow paced. I only tend to use them when I really get stuck on something. But in case I do really get stuck, Khan Academy almost always makes me understand it.
This video has saved me from my teacher's slides. Thank you!
I learnt more in the first two minutes of this video compared to the 1 hour and 40 minute class i had today
True
You have 1 hour and 40 minutes of class 🤯🤯
@@brayanmani7112well yeah how long are your classes
@@neutrogemax8494Maximum 40 minutes bro. 😂
i feel like in class its just taught to you as something just is the way it is, i rly appreciate these videos online that actually demonstrate the background explanation for why things are the way they are....like if something makes sense because of where it is derived from, then its like so much easier to remember
thanks for the amazing vid :)
This actually gives context to complex numbers. It actually makes sense to someone like me who hates imaginary numbers. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Straight and clear explanation. I would have loved it before we first used the polar form in geophysics :D
The reason for using r cis (θ) was not explained by my textbook in a way that made sense to me. This video helped a lot.
The explanation for deriving theta can be much simplified if r was calculated first,and then use the definition of tan theta to derive theta.

Joke's on me I'm about to fail this subject test
Did you fail?
@@nickbeats9883 Nah pretty sure I got like an A or a B. Ended the class with like an A- so that's a dub
@@n0lain that was 3years ago I don't think I'd have remembered at all
@@hudaismail6735 to be fair I 100% forgot about my comment, I came back cause of the notification
@@n0lain Did you forget about this one too 3 years later?
superb teaching skills....

Thank you again, your videos can be a Godsend at times. :-)
This has been very helpful, thanks.
this was soo good! thanks
I learnt polar coördinates in the form of (r, Phi) (Phi = your Theta, guess that's not universal) which IMO makes it even clearer, you go 'r' away from (0,0) with an angle of Phi. Example: (r, phi) = (2, Pi) -> Z = -2 (+ 0i). (r, phi) = (sqrt 2, 1/4 Pi) -> Z = 1 + 1i .
Thanks for your video, and I must admit, 720p + a new mic makes for a much better experience than your older complex number video's from 2008 ;-)
thank you so much.
I never understood why the angle has so many different ways to calculate, considering if a or b are either positiv or negative.
you are the man!

Wow the explanation is very clear, thank you so much sir, you really helped me!
THANKD MUCH FOR ALL OF THE LESSONS!!
thank u for actually explaining it properly
this was very helpful...thank you :)
7:40 the angle is actually from x axis right side to the complex argument clockwise thts why its pi+the angle
This finally lit the light bulb. Thank you
Im an Algerian student who is in his last year of high school and unfortunately this is in our program, you are actually a god send my friend
Thank you, it was very helpful. For me, finding theta would have registered better in degrees, idk if anyone else feels that way.
thank you! very useful and clear;
OMG thank you so much! You've quickly explained what my teacher couldn't explain in weeks.

How do we go back to the (a+bi) form?
Thank you!
excellent video , hugely helpful **
Very helpful.
I stay up late to watch stuff like this.
so badass

2:30am😭
thanks Sal...
2020 and still learning from him
it is 2021 now
"These are not the thetas you are looking for."
I know hahahahahah
Respect. Only sexual joke that doesn't involve countercockwise
GGGGGGreat explanation sir
Sir , you could have used triangle of vector addition,and resolution of r into 2 components.
Hahaha "counter cockwise" at 11:50.
Great video though, very helpful
Yeahh XD
omg i don't understand where is the issue
Working from the problem is key
thanks so much :)
The whole complex numbers in 12 minutes!
Amazing 😊😊
Some trig books would abbreviate the last part as sqrt(13)CIS(2.55).
Liberal arts have taken over the term CIS for Cisgender.
They added new function “trans” to coexist with CIS
Does he have a video on Polar to Cartesian?
The part at 3:50 wasn't all that obvious to me. What made me "accept" the statement was thinking of the two triangles formed; they're uniform. And since the hypotenuse of the smaller one is 1, the x- and y-coordinates must be r*cos(theta) and r*sin(theta) respectively.
The books I've had and have tend to show that this holds for right angle triangles (they don't even mention the unit circle) in the first quadrant, and then state that it holds for all quadrants (ie. not actually proving it). I'm not sure whether it's me or the books, I refuse to accept things without solid proof.
Thank you for the video :)
Its because of similar triangles
If triangles have equal angles they are similar and that means that ratio of sides are equal
thanks but I GOT ISSUES ON TRIGONOMETRICS AS WELL I WILL SURELY WATCH IT AGAIN AFTER A TRIG REVIEW
Like the new mic.
I love you Sal Khan
7:50 my own learning checkpoint
Ngl, I upvote all Khan Academy videos before watching them because I already know they're going to be good
Is this the same when working out British numbers?
since pi is 180 you're supposed to subtract not add
is it okay to do this in degrees or does it need to be done in radians?
I was lost at -0.59 + pi. Why wasn't the calculator correct? Something about needing to shift by adding pi, but that was confusing to me.
Well.. In terms of understanding... I lost it from 2:06....
But I can surely say that whatever happened after that IS really interesting... ✌
Question: how would you find the modulus argument form of JUST a real number or JUST an imaginary number (ie: -20 or 3i)? My textbook has questions like these but I have no idea how to go about solving it?? I thought I was good at maths lmao
well the argument of just a real number would be zero and the argument of just a complex number would be 1/2pi as they're just sitting on their axis
@@Klikmac my question is since the real number is negative, then it is on the -ve part of real axis, is the angle pi??
Hey, anyone.....at 3:41, Khan said that x is sin and y is cos. I thought that it was the other way around.
can we now figure out what r and theta R?
Lol im so immature as soon as I heard counter cockwise I rushed to the comment section to make sure I wasn't just hearing things.
What program do you use?
11:50
how did you know to add pi to theta
Where does the e come into this? Like re^(i theta)?
Couldn't we use inverse sin or cosine to find theta??
How did you get cos(theta) is it same as cos(pi - theta)
how come its cos teta is that not the tan quadrant?
i(t) = 20·cos(18570·t − 2.8798) how to get rectangular of this?

SAL YOUR STILL THE MAN!
+Mark BossMan You're.
give me a break loser
+Mark BossMan says the guy that learns calculus but doesn't know simple grammar.
+I VisiBomb I This is a math lesson lol, not english.
Jacob Mikeska in which you use letters from the English language.
sir which application on computer for lecture like as a white board?
Honestly it looks like it's MS Paint
quick question can you do this questions in degrees without using any radians...?
I don't know why did you put the angel in rad should it be tan -1(-2/3) = -33.6 degree right away ?!!
No, Precalculus is part of Calculus and in calculus you use radians for the trig functions
He did it because it’s counterCOCKwise
Pause at 3.20. Think.
Hi, is a complex number always relative to the origin
I think yes, sorry a little late (4 yrs late 😂)
@@furqaanilahi8078 is ok, it wasn't the right question 😉
314k views and only 580 likes??
Cuz mostly people use the site,hence they view the embedded version of the video where they cannot like the video.

I don't get it try and do this question why is every e.g. Got - as the real number and not plus instead. Try z equals to 5 plus 2j.
And...stop laughing at his 11:50....very mature CZcams...very mature.
Why can't you just get theta right away by doing theta = arctan2/3 then pie -arctan2/3 = 2.55?
woah
Why did 90% of people in the comment section not understand? I don’t get it, what is it that you don’t understand? I may help.
It's 3 AM . Why I'm watching this
Yousef Hamdan because counterCOCKwise
isn't this pretty much the same thing as vectors?
Just wait till roses and crap
wish u kept it in degrees
tan-1(-2/3)=-33.69 degree??/??
Change ur calculator to radians 😂

This comment section is immature af I love it
I DIDN'T GET IT
i dont understand
Why my teacher just doesn’t explain exactly what the question will ask like you did only God knows. Wasted a week of my life.
I love you Sal. (no homo)
This video didn't really help me much....I need more example problems
I have no idea what the hell you are talking about.
very pathetic .....be more clear
complete waste of time, should have just shown the last 5 minutes
