Part two in a series explaining the difference between base ten and base twelve geometry

In this video I give a simple example of how what seems to be the same number in base ten and base twelve, can actually be quite a different length depending on how the Cartesian Plane has been divided.
Before one can really appreciate that the value of Pi may indeed not only be a different number but also have different characteristics in base twelve, it is important to grasp how the actual Cartesian Plane is different from one base to another.
