A visual proof of the following statement:
If $\infty=\dfrac{1}{0}$, then $0=\dfrac{1}{\infty}$ .
Proof:
Assume $\infty=\dfrac{1}{0}$. Rotate each side of the equation counterclockwise $90^{\circ}$. We get 8 = −10. Subtract 8, getting 0 = −18. Then rotate both parts back: $0=\dfrac{1}{\infty}$. QED.
