Understanding Annulus in Mathematics

The video tutorial explains the concept of an annulus, a ring-shaped object defined by two concentric circles. It covers the calculation of its area using geometric and calculus methods, including the Pythagorean theorem and integration. The tutorial also explores the annulus in complex analysis, discussing its properties as a Riemann surface and its mapping in the complex plane.
