The Geometric Effect of Multiplying by a Reciprocal

For Teachers 11th - 12th Standards
Class members perform complex operations on a plane in the 17th segment in the 32-part series. Learners first verify that multiplication by the reciprocal does the same geometrically as it does algebraically. The class then circles back...
