Visual Proofs

Visual proofs are graphical methods used to demonstrate mathematical concepts or truths. They use images, diagrams, or visualizations to show why something is true, making abstract ideas more intuitive. For example, a visual proof can show how a sum of angles in a triangle equals 180 degrees by drawing and rearranging shapes to reveal the relationship. Unlike algebraic proofs, visual proofs rely on the clarity of images to communicate the reasoning, helping to build understanding through visual intuition rather than just formulas or symbols.
