Two Geometric Series in an Isosceles Trapezoid (visual proof without words)
This is a short, animated visual proof demonstrating the sum of two infinite geometric series using dissection proofs in an isosceles trapezoid. In particular, we show how to find the sum of powers of 1/4 and the alternating sum of powers of 1/2 using the isosceles trapezoid. Geometric series are important for many results in calculus, discrete mathematics, and combinatorics.
