Hello everyone! From the past 2-3 weeks, I decided to utilize my time in sharing my little drop of knowledge from the ocean of mathematics to others via a YouTube channel. The channel is all about visual mathematics, mainly geometry which is animated beautifully such that anyone can understand it's solution. The videos are typical of 5 minutes and you will definitely enjoy it. But, I need your help with a few things:
Thank you for your reading this. Here is the link to my channel: Mathy Mahdi

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

Just continue doing what you are up to. Don't let your passion attenuate! I am just not sure if you are allowed to use Brilliant content outside (copy rights). Anyway, if they have problems with that they will let you know for sure.

Thank you very much Maria, your point of copyright is valid, but I am taking the problem and sourcing it in the description, and the solution is mine only so I don't think there will be any issues. Thanks for pointing it out though, I will look further

@Mahdi Raza, can you add a video about Euler's identity?
Log in to reply
Yes, maybe.
Subscribed! Keep it up Mahdi!

🤩 Thank you @Pi Han Goh!!!!!!
I love the channel, thanks for sharing! I have a math blog at http://lostmathlessons.blogspot.com/ if you are interested in some more math topics. (I haven't been blogging as much as I used to, though.)

Thank you so so much @David Vreken, I will surely check out the blogs in detail though I found the bouncing DVD one interesting, just like the bouncing ball on pool table. Thank you for sharing!!!
Log in to reply
I'm glad you're enjoying it!
I have already subscribed to your channel! I will surely tell you if I wish for some topic there!

Thanks Vinayak!!
Yep, i checked it out. everything is perfect from explanation to animation. especially the music force you to ponder.(3b1b). keep up the good work. all the best.
Log in to reply
Thank you Vikram, music played a bit of special role in it
@Mahdi Raza, Thank you for sharing this valuable information with us. I will watch and leave a feedback while watching the videos.

Thank you @Hana Wehbi!
Nice work, but the slow print is annoying a bit. I'm definitely looking for some good math problem. I will upload these and mention you in it. Is that okay?
Log in to reply
I can't mention you. I don't know why.
Sure, Thanks!
Hi Mahdi.
I've always liked your animations and have subscribed. Would love to see some original content -- new puzzles and problems. I don't have anything for you but maybe you do, or maybe you can find someone on brilliant.org who you can work with. All the best and good luck with your venture.
Log in to reply
Hi Stefan, thank you for that. I was also thinking of some original problems which I can share, but I don't have another good math resource. I was maybe thinking about more of proving theorems, that would help in problem-solving. Nonetheless, thank you so much!!

If you're interested in proofs, the geometric proof of why there are only five platonic solids could suit your animation style.

You can look at what others have posted and see if you think you can provide a fresh take that is different to theirs. Or you can look for something less common that is unlikely to have been posted by anyone else. Or you can just accept that there are going to be multiple similar takes on common proofs and add yours to the collection. As long as you try to be different and don't copy others, you won't upset anyone (who am I kidding, this is the internet: whatever you do you will upset someone 😁).

here's the link. Thanks for your inputs :)
You have written some problems yourself in Brilliant, why not start from there? It is better and much easier than starting from scratch. I suggest you start from your Spiraling Triangles!?! question first.
@Mahdi Raza Great work, Thank you for the contributions to the community.

Thanks Marvin
Thanks to share your chanel with me , I hope can gif you same opinion or idea in the future.
Log in to reply
Sure, thank you for checking the channel @jordi curto
Mahdi , can you please tell me how did you know so much in mathematics ? Please share your thoughts and guide me .
Log in to reply
Thank you, but I don't know so much in mathematics, there's a lot to learn yet. But, I was interested in olympiads a lot, for its competition. I partly developed an interest in maths because of that only. I discovered brilliant, joined online olympiad math classes, gave different math olympiads, and was enjoying maths a lot. It's a fascinating subject and thus I learn more and more about it. That is pretty much what I can reflect on why I am developing better in maths. And I still practice a bit every day!
@Mahdi Raza- Try to view this in your channel
Log in to reply
Sure i'll see, Thanks for sharing!
@Mahdi Raza try to view this,this,this,this,this, this, and this on your youtube channel

Sure, thank you, @Zakir Husain. I cannot understand some of them, and explaining algebra in a video with equations might be boring. Do share geometry more if possible, I am currently making a short geometry video only.
Thanks a lot for sharing your channel with us! I am looking forward to check on it...

Thank you so much Hamza!!
To all present, I hereby knight @Mahdi Raza 'the Buddha of the Brilliant community of mathematics'.
@Yajat Shamji and @Hamza Anushath stop it, please!
Log in to reply
Hahaha It's finished Just a small mistake made by me I should have thought first Anyway, thanks for trying to stop that ( whatever that was )
What - I personally think that @Mahdi Raza should get the knighting. Or is it something else? @Páll Márton

He meant about our quarrel, or rather, the small misunderstanding between us

Bye!
@Mahdi Raza, for your YouTube channel, if you want, you can make a video based on the value of 00. Is it equivalent to 1 or 0?
(I will not mention the answer here; I will see what answer you give in the video, if you were to use my idea.
Log in to reply
It will be an interesting subject indeed...
Log in to reply
Morning, @Hamza Anushath! A video about 00 will be great!

@Mahdi Raza thinks the answer is...
It is either 0 or 1. I want to see what1,0 or undefined - it depends on your point of view or what field of mathematics you are using 00 in.
@Vinayak Srivastava, @Hamza Anushath, I watched the BRILLIANT video on Youtube about this topic - it is eitherLog in to reply
But mostly it is considered indeterminant.
And if you can, also try to prove the value of 00 by diverging to it
Amazing
I shouldn't be using this blog as an advertising board, but if anyone could, would they be kind enough to try this question. Thanks in advance.
The reason I am asking this is because I want a fast and interesting method of answering the question, and a unique explanation too.

I got this wrong, so don't ask me.
Thanks for the animated videos! They are very helpful in comparison to regular, inanimate videos.
can you post a video on how to correctly use all the functions on a calculator

Nice idea! @Nathan Soliman

thx
Very good channel! I liked the videos. I wonder what software you use to mount such videos. I also want to create my own channel, but I cannot find a suitable program.

Thank you, Brian!! I used Keynote, but now I also use GeoGebra and iMovie along with it. Glad you liked the videos. All the best for your channel too!
@Mahdi Raza, after much thinking, I have decided that my expression of gratitude cannot be expressed in words for all the times you have appeared in my problems or problems and discussions where I contribute, therefore, my expression of gratitude is:
✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨🌠🤩👑🏆
Thank you so much for all of the contributions and corrections you have brought into my Brilliant account - you are akin to a history-making mathematical hyperstar with glowing efflugence like God and blessed with intellect similar to Goddess Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of knowledge. I hereby nickname you 'the Buddha of the Brilliant community of mathematics'!
Log in to reply
Thank you, but I am not so great as you imagine. Please don't compare me to the great mathematicians. I am just a mere contributor to Brilliant, trying my best. There are many many many many many many other people who deserve far better than me. Thanks!
Log in to reply
Don't worry - the whole comment is based and aimed at the Brilliant community, not the entire community of Mathematics. I am saying that, in the midst of the Brilliant community, you are the history-making mathematical hyperstar with glowing efflugence like God and blessed with intellect similar to Goddess Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of knowledge. By the time you read this comment, the nickname will have been changed and I will knight you as that nickname (being serious here!) @Mahdi Raza.
He's right, you are gifted by God. And you are making good use of your great gift. Keep it up! You are close to being BRILLIANT legend!

I think @Mahdi Raza is a BRILLIANT super-legend, @Hamza Anushath. Hence, my knighting comment.

@Mahdi Raza would be surprised
Well... Let's hope he reads this...Log in to reply
@Hamza Anushath - @Mahdi Raza will definitely be surprised.
That's true,Sorry, and not related to this topic, but could anyone help me on how to follow a profile? I am not even sure whether it is a feature or not, but help is accepted!

I don't think you can, @Hamza Anushath.

Ok, thanks for helping
What I do is bookmark my favorite profile pages with my web browser and then periodically check on them.
