Prove by mathematical induction that, for all non-negative integers n, 11^(2n) + 25^n + 22 is divisible by 24

The procedure of mathematical induction is as following:

Firstly prove the base case is true i.e. when n=1, the statement is true.

Then assume for some integer n=k the state...

Prove that i^i is real.

Here we are examining the imaginary number ‘i’, defined as the square root (sqrt) of ‘-1’.We begin by using Euler’s identity:e^(iπ)+1=0e^(iπ)=-1Since sqrt(x) is the same as x^(1/2):(e^(iπ))^(...

How do you calculate the derivative of cos inverse x?

When differentiating cos inverse x, the typical method is to make y equal to cos inverse x.By taking cos of both sides: x = cosy.You can then differentiate with respect to y, obtaining that: (dx/dy) = - s...
