Think Outside the Box!

Показать описание
Think outside the box! Today we look at the Nine Dot Puzzle as an analogy for thinking outside the box. We will also look at two real-life examples of thinking outside the box, where an unusual approach turns complicated problems into simple solutions.
The two examples are
1. A toothpaste factory is faced with a problem on the assembly line - the workers come up with a brilliantly simple solution.
2. We want to find the value of an infinite sum and may be able to do so using a visual approach that is far less complicated than the standard mathematical approach using limits and advanced algebra.

Really nice vedeo :) Loved the geometrical approach to solve the inft series.

with the general formula the sum would have been very easy to solve, but i see why you did not use it
