Hidden Features of Windows 10

November 25, 2019 by Steph Leave a Comment

Windows 10 is the latest Operating System released by Microsoft which runs in the personal computers. Windows 10 was released in July 2015. Since then, it has become the most popular Windows OS being used in PCs with share of 33.92%. Although a lot of users are running Windows 10 in their machines, some of them are not familiar with its hidden features. Let’s have a look on its attributes:

  1. Hidden Start Menu:Windows 10 provides a Shortcut Menu to some powerful tools which give access to many options to handle some functions. Pressing Right Click on Start Menu Icon or Windows Key + X pops up a menu which has access to many functions such as Power Options, Task Manager, Mobility Center, etc. A user may have an easy-to-do facility with this feature of Windows 10.
  2. Minimizing All Windows Except the Active One: 

    As clear from the above title, Windows 10 facilitates with a feature to minimize rest of the windows at once while keeping active window on display. This feature is called as Shaking. To use this, you simply have to Left-click on the title bar of a window and dragging the mouse back and forth while keep pressing the left mouse button. Many a times, this feature is not already set to use. You can turn it on manually by searching Local Group in Search Bar, an option comes with the name Edit Group Policy, open it up, and go to Administrative Templates >> Desktop and double click on Desktop option. Then look for the “Turn off Aero Shake window minimizing mouse gesture”, a new dialogue box appears, click on the Disabled and there you go…

  3. Touchpad Gestures:Just like Apple’s OS-X supports touchpad gestures in its laptops, so do the Windows 10 provides trackpad gestures which prevent a user from a typical routine of Clicking the Mouse Buttons. Some of the gestures are as follows:
  4. 1-Finger tap: Works as Left Mouse Button and selects an item.
  5. 2-Fingers tap: Works as Right Mouse Button and shows Context Menu.
  6. 3-Fingers tap: Opens up Cortana.
  7. 4-Fingers tap: Opens up Notification Panel.
  8. 2-Fingers Swipe works as a Scrolling tool.
  9. 3-Fingers Swipe gives facility to switch between any of the tasks being run on the same desktop as same as Alt Key + Tab Key do.
  10. 4-Fingers Swipe let you switch between the Virtual Desktops opened in the device.
  11. Pinching in or Stretching out two fingers Zooms out or Zoom in respectively.

 

  1. Cortana:Cortana

    is actually a virtual assistant being provided by Microsoft in its Windows 10 just like Apple facilitates with Siri and Amazon offers Alexa. Cortana can be enabled manually. It helps in performing many functions as well as it covers many areas from searching a thing offline in computer to perform various Google’s online commands. Cortana can bring weather news for you, can be used as a reminder for events, can play music or radio of your taste, can open any app in the computer on your command and can also be used to do chit chat and to play games. You can set Cortana’s Voice Recognition quality to only to your own self, otherwise it will work for anyone. Select its ‘Respond Best’ to ‘To Me’ and teach Cortana your voice and you are all set…

  2. God Mode:

    As per the name speaks, the ultimate ‘God Mode’, it gives access to all the settings and managements that can alter the software of a computer. God Mode is also known as Windows Master Control Panel shortcut. When you have to alter any property of a driver related to any hardware, you usually go to Control Panel. Different options have been categorized in different sub-folder in Control Panel. But in this Mode, all of the options are shown in the same page with easy-scrolling from one category to another one unlike the control panel where you have to go to specific sub-folder to gain access to these functions. Enabling God Mode is very easy, all what it demands is a New Folder on the desktop. So, create a New Folder on the Desktop, and name it “GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}”. A new folder is generated with same icon as of Control panel that contains more than 200 settings ordered alphabetically.
  3. The Slide Shutdown:
  4. Since Windows 10 has the latest UI and advance features like touchpad gestures, Cortana, and many other properties, some people like to set Slide to Shutdown option for their ease though it is not that much worthy. There are two options to set it, first Manually and second Downloading an already built shortcut to shut down. To create it manually, go to the Desktop, and create a Shortcut from Context Menu by clicking Right Mouse Button on any blank space on the desktop. After that, a dialogue box appears which demands a Location of the Item, and write the given code in there: “%windir%\System32\SlideToShutDown.exe” and save it. You can also update its icon from its properties. When you click on it, the Slide comes from the above and requires to drag it down while clicking and holding the left mouse button.
  5. Transparent Command Prompt:Command Prompt is basically a Line Interpreter with Command Line Interface that comes pre-installed in most of the computers which runs many commands provided by the user. You can access this from the Start Menu searching the keyword CMD or you can create its shortcut from the Context Menu by giving code conhost.exe and saving it. Here, we are to talk about its feature of Transparency. Command Prompt can be made transparent in two ways; first – from its Properties, second – by Hotkeys. Open the CMD, Right-Click the Top Border and select Properties. Make sure that the Use Legacy Console box is unchecked. Then move to the Color option and adjust the Opacity on a scale from 0 to 100%. On the other hand, one can adjust the opacity using hotkeys. To increase transparency, use CTRL + SHIFT + Plus (+) and to decrease transparency, use CTRL + SHIFT + Minus (-).

5 ways online tuitions are boosting learning for weaker students

November 2, 2019 by Steph Leave a Comment

Online tuition is a buzzword these days in the educational community and rightly so! More and more students are turning to online tuition at home for learning flexibly, conveniently and at their own pace. Paucity of time is a major factor propelling growth of online tutoring solutions tailored for students across grades and educational levels.

Additionally, weaker students tend to gravitate towards online tuition since it fosters convenient and flexible private learning which helps them learn at their own pace without having to keep up with the rest, something that is undoubtedly essential. One-on-one private online tuition is steadily emerging as the best learning alternative for weaker students. The online learning concept has manifested itself hugely over the last few years with close to 3 million learners being enrolled in diverse online learning modules or taking at least one online learning course as a part of their degrees.

Here are the top 5 ways in which online tuitions are boosting learning for students who are weaker-

  1. They are more affordable – Online tuition is mostly affordable for weaker students who need more time and attention on an individualized basis. Getting home tuitions from tutors physically involves higher expenditure since they will charge more for travelling expenditure and also the time spent on one-on-one tuition which could have been spent teaching a whole batch together instead.
  2. They are extra convenient – Online tuitions foster greater convenience. They help weaker students get personalized attention and learn at their own pace in the comfort of their own homes without having to travel and waste more time in the bargain. Weaker students can devote time to learning at home and that too on a personalized basis. This added convenience is a major plus point by all means.
  3. Improved Contact with the Teacher – One on one tuition means that weaker students have much better contact with the tutor than others. They can easily ask question and clear doubts over lessons on online portals or Skype. This format ensures faster and better learning while also opening up a channel of communication/dialogue between tutors and their students.
  4. Additional Flexibility – Weaker students do not have to rush to compete and keep up with the rest of the class at private tuitions anymore. They can learn the subject and grasp concepts in a flexible manner at their own pace on a one-on-one personalized online tuition model. Classes can be scheduled as per the availability of the pupil and a plan is made by the tutor for covering the subject flexibly and comfortably while enhancing overall interaction with the student at the same time.
  5. They lead to higher confidence – Weaker students gain more confidence from online tuitions since they closely interact with their online tutors and build productive academic relationships. Close collaboration is possible in this format and not in larger classes and hence problem areas are discovered swiftly by teachers who can then assist weaker students overcome these hurdles flexibly and conveniently. Students who are shy and reclusive in group environments will naturally gain more confidence and learn better through private tuitions online.

As a result, taking tuitions online will help weaker students study better and build up their confidence immensely. You should always look for the right online education portal in this regard. Vedantu.com an innovative online education portal for students in India is serving a huge audience in and fulfilling its promise within the Indian students community.

First American Home Warranty Reviews – Tips on Protecting Your Home From The Elements

October 11, 2019 by Steph Leave a Comment

If you live in an area which is prone to natural disasters then it is absolutely crucial that you have done all that you can to make sure that your property has the protection which is needs. Surprisingly not enough people focus on this and I was reading some of the First American Home Warranty reviews recently, where so many remarked on the quality of the service, but also highlighted their own lack of preparation for a natural disaster. You only need to look at how the wildfires in California ravaged so many properties, to see just how important this is. You can never guarantee your property’s safety against the elements, but there are things that you can do to increase your protection.

Home Warranty

A home warranty will protect items in the home such as your plumbing and electrics, your HVAC system and your vehicles outside the home. Getting good home warranty is easy to do and you just need to get online, compare the best deals for buyers, check out what people are saying in the reviews and find the most suitable plan for your particular needs.

Home Insurance

Insurance is different from the warranty as this protects against damage to your home, including structural damage. A good home insurance policy should be one which protects against natural disasters, one which offers a low excess and maximum payout and one which offers reasonable monthly premiums. You should also look for a reputable company with good customer service, and one with experts of the insurance industry working for them.

Additional Protection

There are also things which you should be doing in the home to maximize protection.

Hurricanes – Hurricane shutters are a vital purchase and you should also look to make sure that your garage door is strong and reinforced. Another purchase which you should look to make is hurricane straps which will help to support the structure of the property.

Earthquakes – You must ensure that your property is able to withstand an earthquake of 9.0, this is the largest ever recorded. Within the home you need to focus on securing the cabinets and fittings in the home to be sure that they won’t fall and break if an earthquake hits. When attaching anything to a wall you have to ensure that you are using heavy duty screws and fittings so that it won’t budge.

Floods – Elevating your kitchen appliances and your electrical items off the floor will help you t minimize the damage which a flood can do, as well as helping you to avoid secondary issues like fire.

Wildfires – Make sure that there is an exclusion zone around the property, this zone shouldn’t have anything in it which could potentially catch fire, as this will then set fire to the property. Be sure that everyone knows why this zone is here and the importance of keeping it clear.

You can never completely avoid damage but there are some things which you can be doing in order to minimize it.

How to find the measure of the indicated angle

June 5, 2019 by Steph Leave a Comment

If you’d like to learn how to confidently find out the size of a wide variety of angles, in different shapes, simply continue reading to discover how to find out the size of most common angles. As an example, you’ll be able to figure out how to find out the value of an angle in a right angled triangle.

How to find the measure of the indicated angle:

1. How to find out the size of an angle in a right angled triangle

To start off with, it’s a great idea to learn how to figure out the easiest angle in geometry, a right angled triangle. To be able to accurately work out a mystery angle in a right angle triangle, you need to know the length of two of your triangle’s three sides.

The three sides of a triangle are named the adjacent angle, which is located adjacent to the angle, the opposite angle and the hypotenuse. It doesn’t matter which two sides you have the measurements of as long as you know the length of two of the three sides which make up your right angled triangle.

The next step which you have to take the figure out your angle is to decide whether to use sine, cosine or tangent. Use sine or sin if you know the lengths of your opposite side and your hypotenuse side. Use cosine if you have the measurements of your adjacent side and your hypotenuse side and if you have opposite side and your adjacent side you’ll need to use tangent.

Once you’ve figured out to use sine, cosine or tangent you’ll ned to use the corresponding formula. As an example if you need to use the sine equation, use the equation Sin (x) = opposite length multiplied by hypotenuse angle = your answer.

A faster way to find out the angle inside a right angled triangle:

If you have a scientific calculator you can save yourself time by using your calculator to perform your equation as scientific calculators have cos, tan and sin buttons.

Tips on how to find angles in a triangle:

If you already know two angles within a triangle, you should be able to figure out the value of the remaining angle without using an algebraic formula. Even if you only know the value of one angle within a triangle, you may be able to figure out the value of the remaining angle, by using the rules below.

1. All the angles within a triangle always add up to 180 degrees.

So if you know two angles within a triangle, simply add both the angles which you have together and subtract them from 180 degrees, to find out the size of your remaining angle.

2. Opposite angles always equal 360 degrees.

If you know the opposite angle within a triangle, you also know how large your mysterious angle is.

Hopefully you now have a few ideas of how you can find out the size of an unknown, mysterious angle in a regular triangle.

The most useful algebra formulas to learn

June 5, 2019 by Steph Leave a Comment

If you’re interested in learning a few basic algebra formulas, continue reading on to discover some of the most useful basic algebra formulas to learn.

The most useful algebra formulas to learn:

1. The difference between two squares

The difference between two squares refers to when two binomials have only one difference, when one term features a plus and the other term features a minus sign. To quickly discover the difference between two squares use the following basic algebra formula (x+y) (x-y) = x squared – y squared.

2. The difference of cubes

To figure out the difference of cubes use the formula a to the power of 3 – b to the power of 3 = (a-b) (a+b).

3. The sum of cubes

If you need to find out the sum of cubes, the formula which you should use is a to the power of 3 + b to the power of 3 = (a+b) (a squared -ab + b2).

4. The pythagorean theorem

The pythagorean theorem is one of the most commonly used algebraic equations and is used to accurately figure out the lengths and sides of a right angled triangle. Thankfully the pythagorean theorem equation is one of the simplest algebraic equations to learn.

When a and b refer to the two sides of a triangle which stem from either side of a triangle’s right angle use the equation a squared plus b squared = c squared. In this equation c, refers to the the side which you’re trying to work out the value of, which is known as the hypotenuse.

5. How to multiply powers which boast the same base

To multiply powers which feature the same base make sure to add your exponents. The formula which you should use to multiply powers which boast the same base is x to the power of a, x to the power of b = x to the power a+b.

Before you try to figure out a trickier algebraic problem such as this particular problem, you may be better off learning simpler equations such as the pythagorean theorem. Which is much easier to grasp and will give you a solid base to learn more difficult algebraic equations.

6. How to raise a power

If you’re unsure of how to raise a power, simply use the formula (X to the power of a) to the power of b = X to the power of ab. Just remember that when you need to raise a power by a power to multiply your exponents.

7. How to discover the power of a product property

To workout the power of a product property use the algebraic formula (xy) to the power of a = x to the power of a, y to the power of a. Also make sure that when you raise a product to a power to find out the power of each factor, in order to multiply your factors.

So if you haven’t looked at an algebra book since high school and you’re looking to brush up on your algebra skills, it’s well worth starting off with mastering the simple formulas listed above.

How to construct a 135 degree angle

June 5, 2019 by Steph Leave a Comment

To construct a 135-degree angle you need basic tools you find in your mathematics geometrical set.

For this project we need the following tools;

1. a protractor

2. a 15 cm ruler

3. a compass

4. a pencil and rubber

This is how to construct a 135-degree angle using the above tools.

METHOD 1

The first steps to constructing a 135-degree angle are constructing a right angle first (90 degrees angle)

1. using your ruler draw a straight line and name the ends O and B

Now you have to create intersecting arcs using the following instructions

1. Open your compass to any radius, using O as your center, draw an arc to cut line OB, and name the point of meeting X

2. Do not change the radius of the compass you used in step 1 above, using X as your center, draw another arc to cut the first arc and name that point D

3. Without changing the radius of your compass, this time place your compass at point D, draw another arc to cut your first arc and name that point C

4. Keeping the radius of your compass constant as the steps 1, 2 and 3 above, place your compass at point D and draw an arc, repeat the step placing your compass at point C and draw an arc to cut the arc you just drew. Name this point E.

5. Using a ruler draw a line from point E to point O, extend OE to a point A. the angle AOB you have just formed is a 90-degree angle

6. Extend line BO to your left and name the point Z, since this is a straight line, the angle AOZ formed is also a straight equivalent to 90 degree

PART B.

For this part, we now construct a 135 degree by splitting angle AOB into 2 equal parts.

7. Using a compass open it to a radius of your choosing, using O as your center, draw an arc to cut the line OB and AO at point P and Q respectively

8. Now using your compass set at the same radius as step 7 above, place the compass at point Q and draw an arc, place the compass at point P without changing the radius and draw an arc to cut the arc you just drew and name that point F

9. Using your ruler join point F to O and extend the line to point G.

Observation

– Angles GOB and AOG are both equal to 45 degree

– Adding right angle ZOA (90 degrees) with angle AOG

90+45 = 135

Therefore angle ZOG is a 135-degree angle

METHOD 2

1. Draw a line using your ruler and name the ends A and B

2. Find the center of your line using the ruler, for example; assuming your line AB measures 6 inches, your center is at the 3-inch mark. Name this point O.

3. Now place your protractor aligned to line AB, make sure the center of the protractor is at point O.

4. Find the 135-degree mark on the protractor, mark it with a dot and name it C

5. Join CO with a straight line

6. The angle AOC is a 135-degree angle

Rectangular prisms and triangular prisms: Facts and formulas

June 5, 2019 by Steph Leave a Comment

If you’re interested in finding out detailed facts and formulas which relate to two common types of prisms, rectangular prisms and triangular prisms, simply continue reading to discover a simple guide to understanding both types of prisms.

How many sides does a rectangular prism have:

A rectangular prism has six sides or faces, all of which are rectangles. Hence the name rectangular prism.

What are some fascinating facts about rectangular prisms:

1. All the angles in a rectangular prism are right angles. No matter how small or large a rectangular prism happens to be.

2. Common every day examples of rectangular prisms include rectangle buildings and rectangle boxes.

3. If you were to slice the length of a rectangular prism at any point, the shape which you’d slice would be exactly the same shape and size as if you were to slice your rectangular prism at another point.

How to find the volume of a rectangular prism:

To find out the volume of a rectangular cuboid, you can use a standard formula to find out the volume of a cuboid as a rectangular prism is a type of cuboid.

Simply multiply the length of your rectangular prism by the width of your prism and the height of your rectangular prism.

How to find the surface area of a rectangular prism:

If you need to work out the surface area of a rectangular prism, you can use the formula A = 2wl + 2lh + 2hw. In this formula A = surface area, w = width, l = length and h = height.

How many faces does a triangular prism have?

A triangular prism features five faces and also boasts 9 edges and 6 vertices. A common example of a triangular prism is a Toblerone chocolate bar.

How to find the height of a triangular prism:

One formula which you can use to accurately find out the height of a regular triangular prism is SA = 2B + Ph. In this formula SA = surface area, B = the area of your prism’s base, P = the perimeter of your prism’s base and h = the height of your prism.

To be able to use this particular formula to work out the height of your triangular prism you’ll need to know the surface area of your triangular prism as well as the length of each side of your triangular prism’s base and the area of your triangular prism’s base.

How to work out the surface area of a triangular prism:

It’s a little tricker to work out the surface area of a triangular prism than to simply find the height of a triangular prism. To work out the surface area of a triangular prism you’ll need to use the formula 3 andndash; a andndash; (a + h). In this particular formula a = area and h = height.

In conclusion, hopefully you found the facts and formulas about rectangular prisms and triangular prisms which were presented above informative and now have a better understanding about both types of common, regular prisms. Both of which are commonly found in everyday life, so you may find the formulas listed above useful.

A guide to understanding the key features of polygons

June 5, 2019 by Steph Leave a Comment

If you’re interested in discovering some of the key features of polygons, continue reading to discover a simple, clear guide to understanding polygons.

What is a polygon?

A polygon is a two dimensional shape, which is comprised of straight lines. Any two dimensional shape which is curved such as a circle is not referred to as a polygon. Other examples of shapes which are not polygons include open shapes, which are not fully enclosed as well as three dimensional shapes such as a cube, a sphere or a pyramid.

What are the differences between regular polygons and irregular polygons:

A polygon with all sides and angles and congruent is classed as a regular polygon while a polygon which features sides of varying lengths and angles is referred to as an irregular polygon.

An example of a regular polygon is an equilateral triangle which is comprised of three sides which are equal in length as well as equal interior angles which each add up to 60 degrees. While a common example of a irregular polygon is a scalene triangle which features three sides of varying lengths and which has interior angles of varying different sizes.

What is a concave polygon?
A concave polygon is a polygon which features at least one angle which is at least 180 degrees.
What is a convex polygon?
Unlike a concave polygon a convex polygon will not have a single interior angle which is larger than 180 degrees.
What is a complex polygon?
If you’ve never come across the term complex polygon, a complex polygon is a polygon which has a line which crosses another line.
What are some common examples of polygons:
One of the most common types of polygon are quadrangles. Quadrangles all have four sides and include simples squares and rectangles as well as rhombuses. Furthermore every quadrangle polygon has interior angles which add up to 360 degrees. Quadrangles can also be referred to as parallelograms. Parallelograms feature opposite sides which are always equal in length.
Triangles are another example of a polygon. There are three different types of polygons, equilateral triangles feature three sides of equal lengths, isosceles triangles feature two even sides and one uneven side and feature two, not three equal angles. Finally scalene triangles boast three sides which are all different in length.
Other examples of polygons which you may come across in everyday life include pentagons, hexagons and octagons. Pentagons have five sides, hexagons have six sides and octagons have eight sides.
How to accurately calculate the area of a quadrangle:
To effortlessly figure out the area of a quadrangle, such as a square or a rectangular, multiple the length of your chosen polygon with the vertical height of your quadrangle. Working out the area of a quadrangle couldn’t be easier.
How to calculate the area of other types of polygons;
If you’d like to figure out the area of a polygon which isn’t a quadrangle, you’ll need to split up your polygon into equal triangles before using an algebaric equation to find your answer.
Hopefully, you’re now feeling more confident about your knowledge of a wide variety of polygons.

What is a triangular prism:

A triangular prism is essentially a three sided prism that is comprised of even sized rectangular prisms. The base shape of a triangular prism is a traditional triangle. A triangular prism is comprised of 2 triangular shapes and three rectangular shapes. The two ends of a triangular prism are always parallel to each other, while the four side faces of a triangular prism are rectangular parallelograms.

Furthermore triangular prisms are three dimensional as all shapes which are prisms are three dimensional shapes as opposed to a simple, two dimensional shape such as a square or an octagon. Another example of a prism is a sphere with is three dimensional, unlike a circle which is two dimensional.

What is a right triangular prism:

The term right triangular prism refers to a triangular prism which has a triangular base which edges and face are all perpendicular to the base edges.

Are there any examples of triangular prisms that are easily recognisable:

An example of a triangular prism which you may have seen in real life is an oversized Toblerone chocolate box, which you’ll find sold in the duty free section of most international airports around the world. Some other examples of triangular prisms which you may have come across include camping tents and triangular rooves.

What is a prism:

To understand wha ta triangular prism is, it’s essential to ensure that you’re clear about what a prism is. A prism has identical ends and flat faces and boasts the same exact cross section along its length. So if you were to cut a prism along its length in two different areas, the slices that you’d get would look exactly the same. Furthermore prisms always feature flat sides are are never curved like a cylinder.

How many vertices does a triangular prism have?

Triangular prisms have six vertices. Vertices being corners.

How many faces does a triangular prism have?

A triangular prism always has five congruent faces.

How many edges does a triangular prism have?

A triangular prism has nine edges.

How to calculate the volume of a triangular prism:

If you’re curious about how to accurately calculate the volume of a triangular prism, simply follow the following mathematical equation. Multiply the base of your triangular prism by its height.

How to calculate the surface area of a triangular prism accurately:

In order to figure out the surface area of a triangular prism use the equation 2A + PH. In this formula A = your base area, P = the perimeter of your triangular prism and H refer to the height of your prism.

What is a semi-regular triangular prism?

If you’ve heard the term semi-regular triangular prism and are wondering how a semi-regular triangular prisim differs from a regular triangular prism, a semi-regular triangular prism features an equilateral triangle and several square faces.

Hopefully, you now fully understand the basic facts about triangular prisms.
