Did you ever wonder where the formulas for the sum of the first n counting integers, the sum of the first n odd counting integers, the sum of the first n squares and the sum of the first n cubes originated from? You are in luck; for this presentation will link algebra, geometry, discrete mathematics, calculus, history, and technology in one tidy package and view the connections among the disciplines with these rich summation formulas. The work presented here is amenable to a wide variety of grade bands ranging from middle school through university mathematics. Join us as we pursue this delightful journey.
