Currently Playing: Summing odds via area

Summing odds via area This is a short, animated visual proof showing one method to find the sum of the first n odd positive integers decomposing an array of unit squares into rectangular and triangular pieces and using area formulas for those pieces.

Moreno that appeared in the October 2017 issue of Mathematics Magazine (https://doi.org/10.4169/math.mag.90.4.298 page 298). #manim #math #proofwithoutwords #visualproof #squarenumbers #oddnumbers To learn more about animating with manim, check out: https://manim.community
