Area of a Circle, the BEST COMPLETE PROOF by Archimedes | Tricky Parts of Calculus, Part 3

I give a complete proof that the area of a circle is pi r^2, or 1/2 C r, where C is the circumference, based on the original proof by Archimedes. I also provide some historical notes and commentary on this proof and other proofs. This is the third episode in a series called Tricky Parts of Calculus, which covers the subtle points of the subject of calculus that are rarely treated in detail in a calculus class.
