What I Learned This Week

Hi,

I learned much over this week in Mathland even though I am still only a squire. I learned about Absolute values, circles in addition to Sir Cumference. Most of the concepts that were reviewed were easy and pretty easy concepts, although the review was needed, and refreshed my memory. In class we learned how to set up our web assign accounts and also troubleshooted problems with our Ipads. In the way of learning how to graph circles, we relearned completing the square in order to create a usable equation. In addition to circles, we also learned semicircles and absolute values. Absolute values are the distance from an integer to zero, and therefore all numbers' absolute values is positive, since there cannot be negative distance. Overall, it was an interesting week in Mathland.

Thanks,
Kaili Chiu
