On the JEE Advanced test, you would only have minutes to solve this problem. Students preparing for the exam often take coaching to prepare. In this video I want to focus on the mathematical content of this beautiful problem. A special thanks this month to The Laba Family, Michael Anvari, Richard Ohnemus, Shrihari Puranik, Kyle.

Thanks to all patrons!

Like many YouTubers I use popular software to prepare my videos. You can search for animation software tutorials on YouTube to learn how to make videos. Be prepared--animation is time consuming and software can be expensive!
