In this video, we’re going to discover some key sequences terminology and how to recognize and generate some important sequences. We will come across all of these key sequences. Arithmetic, Linear, Triangular, Square, Cube, Fibonacci, Quadratic, and Geometric. And these keywords; term, 1st term, common difference, common ratio. Each number in the sequence is called a term. This just tells us that the sequence carries on forever.
Sequences that have a common difference, so the same difference every time, are called arithmetic sequences or linear sequences. The sequence comes from the pattern of dots needed to make a triangle. Square numbers and cube numbers are also special sequences. This is called the Fibonacci Sequence. You just add up the 2 numbers before to get the next term. There’s a lot you can discover about Fibonacci, such as if you make squares of the Fibonacci sizes, you get a spiral. It’s linked to The Golden Ratio. And is seen throughout nature.
So, in arithmetic or linear sequences, it’s called a common difference and in geometric sequences, it’s called a common ratio. So now we know the difference between these sequences. Arithmetic, Linear, Triangular, Square, Cube, Fibonacci, Quadratic, Geometric. And what these keywords mean: term, 1st term, common difference, common ratio.

Let’s discover some more circle theorems so that we can solve all types of geometrical puzzles.
We discovered these 4 theorems in part 1:
Angle at the centre is double the angle at the circumference
The angle in a semi-circle is 90 degrees
Angles in the same segment are equal / Angles subtended by

If we don't have the vertical height of a triangle, then we can find the area of the triangle using 1/2absinC.
In this video we are going to discover where this formula comes from. The formula is based on area = 1/2 base X height and a
