Sorry for the repost! In my original video (https://youtu.be/_2GPAzpSyDQ) I had a calculation mistake around 7:10 in method 3. I immediately took down the video and have posted a correction within 24 hours. I thank Inspired and Филипп Лыков for letting me know!

0:00 Problem
0:44 Method 1
3:52 Method 2

I learned about methods 2 and 3 on Quora
