Demonstrates that symmetry of functions helps us to shorten the calculation of the integrals needed for the Fourier coefficients.

We solve simultaneously the equations of a plane and a cone and show that the intersections are circles, parabolas, ellipses, hyperbolas, straight lines or just the origin.

Why are circles, ellipses, parabolas and hyperbolas called 'conic sections'? Part 2 (MathsCasts)

Deals with the details of calculating Fourier series coefficients for a function.

Calculating a Fourier series (MathsCasts)

Introduces the idea of half-range Fourier series and addresses the question of why we use them.
