In this video, we show visual proof for the sum of powers of integers, for power 1 and power 2. This is my first manim video and put many hours of work into it in a constant effort to improve for my viewers and subscribers.
In this video you will hear a story about the genius of Gauss and will see beautiful geometrical proofs for the sums:
1+2+....+n=n(n+1)/2 and 1^2+2^2+...+n^2=n(n+1)(2n+1)/6.
The sum of the powers formula has an exceptionally beautiful geometric proof that involves the construction of a 3D puzzle that consists of 6 pieces.

I would also like to thank the Theorem of Beethoven for helping me with the preparation of the video and making a major part of the animation.

Splendid demonstration! Please, next time put the music far more in the background (or mix you voice louder).

Wow, great explanation and visualization at the end!

Thanks for such an interesting explanation!

Nice visualization but I doubt Guass used it to solve the problem. It's far easier to see the solution just looking at the extended summation you started with.

Good explanation, but it would be easier to hear/understand/process without the music on top.

1+2+3...+n is a 2d proof, and 1*2 + 2^2+...n^2 is 3d, so that means that 1^3 + 2^3 + ... + n^3 will be a 4d proof. Cool.

Just letting you know the first image is a pic of Beethoven…

I'm probably stupid but what happens at 49+50 ?
