Does 2 = 4 via Pi? In this short, we show two mathematical mistakes that arise by using only appearances in mathematical proof. In particular, we show two classical fake proofs: one that pi is 4 and one that pi is 2. These mistakes are similar to the staircase paradox.

Here is a standalone version of the Pi =2 proof: https://youtube.com/shorts/_0RLAnO53Ao?feature=share Here is a related false proof that shows root 2 is equal to 2: https://youtube.com/shorts/owFwvyozcn8 The false pi=2 argument was first suggested to me by Jeff Stuart as a nice alternative to the more classic Pi = 4 argument here. #math #manim #circle #pi #falseproof To learn more about animating with manim, check out: https://manim.community
