Скачать или смотреть Sum Geometric Series with Ratio 1/2 in Rectangles (visual proofs)

In this video, we show an animated version of a recent proof without words that finds the sum of the geometric series with first term 1/root(2)+1/2 and ratio 1/2 using the unit square. Then we show how to find other geometric series sums with ratio 1/2 using different sizes of rectangles. Careful, the final bonus question might require a different technique than rotating :)
