What is infinity divided by infinity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Aug 11, 2012 · I know that $\\infty/\\infty$ is not generally defined. However, if we have 2 equal infinities divided by each other, would it be 1? if we have an infinity divided by another half-as-big infinity, for
Proving De Morgan's Law with Natural Deduction
Feb 26, 2015 · Just a little uncomfortable with step 6 of part 2, i.e., using three steps (1,4,5) to assert a contradiction - seems like too much intuition for my liking.
Calculus proof for the area of a circle - Mathematics Stack Exchange
Aug 28, 2012 · I was looking for proofs using Calculus for the area of a circle and come across this one $$\int 2 \pi r \, dr = 2\pi \frac {r^2}{2} = \pi r^2$$ and it struck me as being particularly easy.
