Visual Learners Imagery to Remember Maths Bits.

I thought I would share some visualisations/imagery I'm using to remember maths bits:

Parallel Lines

Alternate Angles - Z Angles
Image a GNAT sitting at an ALTER praying, with a ZEBRA standing over it.

CorresPonding Angles - F
(remember the P looks like an F)
An actor from Corrie is standing in a pond holding a large F.

Allied Angles - also known as Supplimentary
A WW2 allied solider holding a C shaped bottle of supplements.

Vertically Opposite Angles
Notice that the X is a is made up of V's

For circle theories get a paper plate and draw them on there.

To recognise a positive and negative line on a graph. Positive looks like tick mark and negative part of a X.

Perpendicular looks like an X with a 90 degree angle, yes I use the male anatomy to remember that one.

Cos and Sine on a graph look like sound waves while the tan an earthquake graph or slope.

For things like Y= mx+c you could use something like Yvonne extened her arms towards Mike Xion plus Charlie. Or a Fortnite castle next to a bridge with Micheal X praying at a cross.

I'd love to hear the ways you use imagery to remember.
