This video is about the benefits of having your own math problem on the backburner. I discuss these benefits in the context of the mosaics problem. The purpose of the video is to motivate prospective math students to pick up their pencils and give a problem a try. I also show some cool formulas.
This is my submission for the Summer of Math Exposition Contest for 2023 (#some3).
Special thanks to Kim for providing the excellent hand-drawn animations in this video.
*This video is intended for students that have taken an introductory calculus course.
