the video is a bit misleading. i could also write 5=sqrt(25)=sqrt(1+24)=sqrt(1+3*sqrt(64))=sqrt(1+3*sqrt(1+63))=sqrt(1+3*sqrt(1+4*sqrt((63/4)²))) etc. just because starting with 4 yields integers at each step doesn't mean that 4 is the actual solution to the problem. you really need to show convergence for this and derive the result rather than deriving the infinite expression
Let f[k] = sqrt(1 + k sqrt(1 + (k + 1) sqrt(1 + . . .))). So, f[k] = sqrt(1 + k f[k+1]). Invert: f[k+1] = (f[k]^2 - 1) / k = (f[k] + 1)(f[k] - 1) / k. Convergence and uniqueness aside, it is easy to prove that this equation is solved by f[k] = k + 1. The original problem was to find f[3], so the answer is 3 + 1 = 4. Great problem!

The fact that the sequence of radicals doesn't equal infiniti makes it convergent. I think that is the point he is trying to make.
Beauty!!

how is it easy

Let be f(k)= a.k+b
f(k)^2 = a^2.k^2 + 2akb + b^2
a^2.k^2 + 2akb + b^2 -1 = k.(ak +a+b)
a^2.k^2 + 2akb + b^2 -1 =a.k^2 + k(a+b)
b^2 - 1 = 0
b=1 or b= -1
a^2 = a
a=1 or a=0
2ab = a+b
a=1 , b=1
f(k)=k+1
n*n-1=(n-1)*(n+1)
-----------------------------------------
Recursive formula:
sqrt(n*n)=sqrt(1+(n-1)*sqrt((n+1)*(n+1))
Nice🙂
Thanks
Nice!
Thank you, sir! 😁
5 = √25
= √1+24
=√1+4.6
=√1+4.√36
=√1+4.√1+35
=√1+4.√1+5.7
=√1+4.√1+5.√49
...
=√1+4.√1+5.√1+6.√1+7...
=5
So,
=√1+n.√1+(n+1).√1+(n+2).√1+(n+3)....
= n+1
Is this right?
right,but how to show that,may be by induction
@hazalouldi7130
n = √n^2
=√1+(n-1).(n+1)
=√1+(n-1).√(n+1)^2
=√1+(n-1).√1+n.(n+2)
=√1+(n-1).√1+n.√(n+2)^2
=√1+(n-1).√1+n.√1+(n+1).(n+3)
=√1+(n-1).√1+n.√1+(n+1).√(n+3)^2
...
I had a similar question, can you send me your telegram
