In this video we first derive the formula for the area of a spherical polygon using two theorems proven in the previous two videos which are linked above. This result is then used to prove the fact that V-E+F = 2 is true for all convex polyhedra by projecting the polyhedron on the surface of the sphere and doing some algebraic manipulation. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Help me create more content by supporting Think Twice on: ► Patreon: https://patreon.com/Think_twice ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/thinktwice2580 (@thinktwice2580) ► Instagram: https://instagram.com/thinktwice_ltu/ (@thinktwice_ltu) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contact me: ► [email protected] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🎵 Music by : Jonkyoto - https://www.fiverr.com/jonkyoto ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #mathematics #geometry #Euler
