To find the roots of a polynomial

To prove that a mathematical statement is always true

To calculate integrals

To solve complex equations

A hypothetical scenario

A step where the statement is assumed false

The final step of the proof

The initial step where the statement is assumed true for the first value

Proving the statement for a specific number

Calculating the derivative

Finding a counterexample

Assuming the statement is true for n and proving it for n+1

Pushing the first domino ensures all others fall, similar to proving the base case and inductive step

Each domino represents a different mathematical operation

Dominoes are irrelevant to induction

Dominoes are used to calculate probabilities

2^n = n^2

n^2 + n + 1 = 0

1 + 3 + 5 + ... + (2n-1) = n^2

1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n = n(n+1)/2
