摘要
Within the existing taxonomy of mathematical proofs, visual proofs distinguish themselves by using representation as a tool for demonstration. This paper explores visual proofs in mathematics and their relationship with architectural representation. Most notably, stereotomy and graphic statics exhibit qualities of visual proofs by demonstrating how forms are generated.
