Circle Area by Peeling Circumference

Follow
Mathematical Visual Proofs

In this short, wordless animation, we show one way to "find the area of a circle" using the method of exhaustion by unrolling successive circumferences of nested circular shells. In this manner, the circle area gets transformed into the area of a triangle with base 2pi times r and height r.
