Khan Academy

Anyone know of Khan Academy?  Great learning site all around.  khanacademy.org

[Maudie]

I haven't used it, but my siblings have.

Yes, I have heard of it, have seen some videos.  Its a good extra resource if you're stuck, but KA alone won't replace good face-to-face interaction between student and teacher.

I've never heard of it but it's sounds a bit like North Star has anyone heard of that

[Vilu Daskar]

NO

Personally, it actually is really good for just plain learning.  If you have an account, there's a really large community willing to answer any question, from 1 digit addition to calculus.

My geometry teacher showed us a video about triangles on it. It was about why a two triangles can't be proven to be the same based on a similar side, side, and angle (IN THAT ORDER). (AKA why there is no SSA theorem)

[BadgerLordFiredrake]

Yea, it's because the side always corresponds to the angle, so you'd have to have at least 3 non-corresponding sides/angles.  On the other hand, you only need 2 angles to prove similarity.

[Romsca]

Exactly! Though it was a while ago...

Someone who was the class clown kept insisting that it was the false theorem was called the A.S.S. theorem instead of the S.S.A. theorem

It wasn't me!

[rachel25]

Or was it 

[Romsca]

No, it wasn't, but I laughed at most of his jokes. 

I was immature back then... haven't changed much though
