One great thing about Professor Leonard is that he always gives several straightforward example problems fairly early. Most of my math teachers have stood and rambled on forever about proofs and theorems and confusing crap, and then they MIGHT have given one example problem - and it was always a very long, tedious problem, every single goddamn time.
Though I understand your pain, you should also be thanking your teachers. Many students dislike math because they don't know why they're doing it or where it comes from. Many teachers only give several examples and call it a day. When learning math, it's always important to know the derviation of the formulas you learn, and why certain concepts are the way they are. Any college student here would perhaps agree on this.
@@parinpatel5719 That's only useful when we can understand the proofs, and even then they're only really good for math majors. Professor leonard makes it clear what to do with it as a tool, and that's what engineers see math as.
@@pedrosantana3283 Leonard shows the derivation through his lectures. He spent an entire video explaining what exact solutions are and how they're derviaived. So I think hes a perfect blend of teaching theory and giving examples. Blessed we are to have this resource. I cannot find anything of this quality for real analysis or theoretical optimization. Im scared to attack abstract algebra and topology, since there isnt a professor leonard for those subjects... honestly.
Man this is so much simpler and more understandable than the way I was taught in class. I went from tearing my hair out, to solving these problems rather quickly. Thanks Leonard. ps As an extra benefit I find myself not just more motivated to do math but also to hit the gym, I wonder why that is.
At 36:55 I did the same technique but using property of square roots then exponents. Right away, I noticed \sqrt{xy}=\sqrt{x}\sqrt{y} since it was all over x I then used the property of exponents to simplify. Super cool to see how different brains process and think when working through problems. I am almost done with my BS in Pure math just going back to previous classes to not lose the skills. Thank you so much!
I think every professor should tell their students your speech about getting angry. I have noticed time and time again when I get angry, I am no longer taking in any information. I have to walk away!!! Thank you for always being so awesome Professor Leonard. I wish you'd come back and make more videos. I really could have used your help with Eulers method and then the improved Eulers method!
Thank you for warning us about anger! This is the first math class that I really was infuriated by it. I'll take your advice and take a break when I feel angry. :)
ya I'm glad he said it too because my professor for this course seems to enjoy us getting frustrated and angry. He actively pursues it and without Professor Leonard I would have given up on this class by now.
your teaching approach is so unique and wonderful. the last time I check no mathematics teacher would make this topic as easier has you have made it. I am so grateful professor keep doing this Good work for the world.
Thanks especially for the final segment concerning domain restrictions. It's not just nit-picking; over the years I've seen many practical cases where lack of attention to this detail have produced incorrect or incomplete results.
Absolutely, and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Lately, I've been of the mind to get the technique understood first and then, once that's mastered, to explain the finer points of what's really going on "behind the scenes" so to speak. Students seem to grasp the domain restrictions better once they have mastered what they are actually doing and why the are doing it. Thanks for watching!
Your approach does seem like the most effective plan. Even a quick mention early on that there are details to be examined later is enough to damp down a tendency to ignore them. Thanks again!
love this guy so much. I always feel dumb in my math lectures because all these professors have nothing on leonard... This is what education looks like^^
44:34 wow just when i was wondering if i skipped something or was at the wrong video a problem very similar to the one on my hw shows up lol, you're a god
come teach at CSU PLEASE!!! my professor is so hard to follow that I watch your videos during class time rather than go to class and I gain SOOO much more comprehension. THANKYOU!!!
Hello Professor Leonard, I know I'm late to the party, but I was wondering why you didn't completely solve for y (left it as y^2) during the first homogeneous example (somewhere around 33:00). If anyone wants to tune in and provide an explanation it would be greatly appreciated.
square root would make it + and -; we dont know if its positive or negative. Leaving it as y^2 is better when you have no values. He also kinda explains it 32:28
A major zoo reported that a couple of their massive pythons were missing. Seeing Professor Leonard's arms and biceps, it is obvious where those pythons are hiding.
you can subtract the one on the right to move it left, and then make into a fraction, but you would have give them the same coef. But that makes it complex, and more steps. or you can do * e both sides, but then you have e^tan.., doesnt really look better in terms of simplification
Hey professor, First, I would like to thank you for teaching us. Second, I have only one problem with this method (I know I am the problem, not you). For example, the following problem is really difficult to solve using the method I learned from you. Or maybe I am doing something wrong? But when I searched for a solution, all the solutions I have found are using different methods for the specific problem I am facing. x dx + (y -2x) dy = 0 Would love to be able to solve it using the method I learned from you.
You can have a square root of 0 (which gives you 0). The only problem is with a square root of a negative number. Therefor you do need both x != 0 and xy >= 0.
had no clue wtf these homogenous equations were before I watched your video. Thank you! P.S. I literally watched 3 other vids and still had no clue wtf was going on.
I am confused. My teacher told me when I was doing the question x-y/x+y that the numerator and denominator have the same power, hence it's a homogeneous equation. Can anyone plz tell me if this approach is correct?
Why does the derivative of y=vx is dy=vdx+xdv in our book(dx is included). Tried solving the first problem with same approach on our book but i cant get it. Welp
Professor Leonard needs a Netflix original series
yesssss
I think he's in the first season of Altered Carbon (Joel Kinnaman)
I swear 😅
No matter how much i search for it
You are the only teacher i can understand calculus to
Even tho im not a native english

he is literally teaching me and give me motivation after the video to go gym. who needs more than that?
The main thing I got from this video "When you get angry at your math, it's ok. Walk away, take a break and come back to it later." I felt this.
Same but I never come back
[ASMR] Swole smart math boyfriend puts you to sleep while giving you a lecture about Homogeneous First Order Differential Equations.

Then all the gyms in the world would be constantly crowded.

the gains on this math lad
dont even attend lectures in uni for diff. eqs. just watch these videos. Thank you so much for them!
This channel may have saved me this semester, also why is no one commenting on how absolutely YOKED this man is?
I'll bet his classes fill quickly. He's the best I've seen.

You're a wonderful online lecturer, which is hard to do. Thanks for teaching me DE Professor Leonard
Thank you always professor, always love the pep talks too ❤️❤️
Leonard looking jacked. Never thought i'd still be watching you after 4 years of college
Wow this was so clear and helpful! I am very grateful for this excellent video!!!!
Thank you professor. This lesson helped a lot.
Sir ...God bless you and keep you, may He make his face shine upon you and your family.
Finally I understood. Thank you so much professor Leonard :)
Thanks for another great lecture, Professor Leonard!
Elegant solution! So simple yet so useful! Thank you!
These examples are so neat and tidy compared to the monsters we used to get on exams.
Convert the answer at 57:00 to polar if you want to graph the original function. Beautiful.
We need more people like you
For 1:05:08, you talk about domain. When you say x*y>0, why can't y=0?????
man .. you are the best proff I ever seen :} for real..
Jesus christ, those mathematical arms 😍
😂😂
i laughed way too hard at this
Looool
Wow
Just simplified this problem for me...
Never understood this in class 😊
I swear You are the best... You and PatrickJMT are the only reason I see a light at the end of this tunnel...

14:00 motivational reminder
57:00 nutshell
1:00:00 vs linear (domain)

It's implicit
This guy was sent from the heavens
PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND.
Why is his definition of Homogenous D.E. different than everyone else's. That definition being f(tx,ty) = f(x,y).
I belive both definitions are equivalent
14:17 i have this problem with programming , thanks for the advice
@ 17:10 when he says "is it linear ----- NO... kills me every single time
Do you work out, Professor?
*brofessor
Dominik B nah, he got that body by finding limits.
El Nieto PR lmao 😂
@@ElNietoPR lol
when i listen to it in class, i think im the fish out of the sea. Here after watching i think i know kungfu
professor leonard is a total mmath guru
A major zoo reported that a couple of their massive pythons were missing. Seeing Professor Leonard's arms and biceps, it is obvious where those pythons are hiding.
my man you are built like a brick house, thanks for the lesson too
At 55:00 would it be wrong if you accidentally left the absolute value lines? Don't think it would really affect things, but can anyone confirm?
1:03:43 but y could be zero so shouldn't we have the restrictions xy>0 n xy=0 n x not equal to 0 ?
I got you , you are superman no more hiding clark
Every video, this man keeps getting buffer. Soon he will be the hulk
I don't understand how you can do that x into the square root of x^2? why is that allowed?
At 53:00 Im a little confused with that split professor. Isn’t it ilegal to separate it since there’s more than one term in the denominator?
1:04:20 About domain issues, should we not also include y/x != 1?
And one minute later, I realized that it is given by the x-y != 0. Always nice when I answer my own questions on youtube. No one else ever does it:-)
the move at 46:00 when you divide by x, doesnt (dy/dx) get divided by x as well?
No
You divide the numerator and denominator by x on the right hand side... no change needs to happen on the left side because (1/x ÷ 1/x) equals 1
Those biceps are out of this world
47:10: how did he divide everything by x without affecting the left side?
Just think of it as factoring the x out of the numerator and denominator x(1+ y/x)/x(1- y/x)
You saved my marks❤️❤️
At 57:09 is it possible to combine the two natural logs to make things simpler?
you can subtract the one on the right to move it left, and then make into a fraction, but you would have give them the same coef. But that makes it complex, and more steps.
or you can do * e both sides, but then you have e^tan.., doesnt really look better in terms of simplification
the way he points those 'little' details(like (x^2)^0.5 makes me really think deeply about math....thank you Professor!
To my book this is art not math ! Thanks professor!!!
Hey professor,
First, I would like to thank you for teaching us.
Second, I have only one problem with this method (I know I am the problem, not you).
For example, the following problem is really difficult to solve using the method I learned from you. Or maybe I am doing something wrong? But when I searched for a solution, all the solutions I have found are using different methods for the specific problem I am facing.
x dx + (y -2x) dy = 0
Would love to be able to solve it using the method I learned from you.
1:05:00 what about the restriction of y/x=1, since you said we cant have a 0 in the denominator. Does it exist or no?
Since y can't be equal to x, y/x can't be equal to 1. The restriction exists but it's already guaranteed by the condition that y is not equal to x.
it's just written differently... ~( x-y=0 ---> x=y ---> 1=y/x )
You can have a square root of 0 (which gives you 0). The only problem is with a square root of a negative number. Therefor you do need both x != 0 and xy >= 0.
Nothing compares to your ways of teaching love it!
What are you supposed to do if you get dv +v? How do you solve this.
had no clue wtf these homogenous equations were before I watched your video. Thank you!
P.S. I literally watched 3 other vids and still had no clue wtf was going on.
Best explanation out there, absolute life saver
sir please discuss linear programming in your future video lectures and also linear regression.
You’re the best!
When we are creating the y/x substitution don't we have the potential to be dividing by zero ? If how do we handle it ? just say x cannot = 0 ?
Man if my math professor is buff like him id prolly get A for all my midterms.
for the second example problem, can you use a substitution v = y-x?
I am confused. My teacher told me when I was doing the question x-y/x+y that the numerator and denominator have the same power, hence it's a homogeneous equation. Can anyone plz tell me if this approach is correct?
I would divide numerator and denominator by x
Why does the derivative of y=vx is dy=vdx+xdv in our book(dx is included). Tried solving the first problem with same approach on our book but i cant get it. Welp
bro is built
I like it when Henry Cavill is teaching me.
Superb lecture!
Thank you for showing all the steps! I greatly appreciate it.
you are a godsend.
professor would be great if you please start a trig series too!
Even understandable for A turkish student thanks😊

professor it was awesome.
sir what books u use ?
Do you even lift professor?
It’s hard to concentrate on the math! 😍
Another great lecture... teaching new things while doing a nice Calc II integration review.
Prof. Is this the same as repeated roots?
