Показать описание
After the 'Derivatives without Calculus' series by 3b1b, there has been many content online discussing the derivative of 1/x using infinitesimal areas. In this video, we see a purely geometric proof using results that was known since Apollonius of Perga.

Hope you enjoy it and please do share your comments on improving any aspect of the video. Thank you.

Act of Learning is an YouTube Channel about exploring some of the mind blowing ideas in math. More importantly, rather than just solving problems, we try to understand the underlying concepts using the problems merely as examples.

The name of the channel is an excerpt from a quote by Gauss, the Prince of Mathematics and my second favorite of all mathematicians. He said "It is not knowledge but the act of learning that grants the greatest enjoyment". 100% correct.

You know what YouTube is like. So please Like, Share and Subscribe the Channel, and show us your continued support.

This video (hopefully all my videos in the future) was made using Manim created by '3b1b' Grant Sanderson. Here are some of the links that you will find useful in learning Manim.
