Importancia de los Métodos Geométricos

Abstract

A visual demonstration that is not formally proof of a particular statement is sometimes called ”proof without words.¨In general, wordless demonstrations are images or diagrams that help the observer see why the statement may be true, and provide visual cues to stimulate mathematical thinking. In some cases, a dull test can be supplemented by a geometric analogue so simple and beautiful that the truth of a statement is almost evident at first glance. The objective ofthe work is to show how some visualization techniques can be used to produce images that help students understand mathematical ideas, proofs and arguments. Eight examples are considered.
