Lesson plan
Visual calculus
Visual calculus, invented by Mamikon Mnatsakanian (known as Mamikon), is an approach to solving a variety of integral calculus problems. Many problems that would otherwise seem quite difficult yield to the method with hardly a line of calculation. Mamikon collaborated with Tom Apostol on the 2013 book New Horizons in Geometry describing the subject.
