17-20: Convergence of the Sequence The sequence given is . To check if it converges: Hence, the sequence converges to 1.
-
21-25: Limit Evaluation Dividing both numerator and denominator by :
-
31-35: Limit Problem To find , we can apply L'Hopital's rule since it is in the form as . Differentiating both the numerator and denominator: [ \frac{d}{dx} [\ln(e^x - 1)] = \frac{1}{e^x - 1} \cdot e^x, \quad \frac{d}{dx} [\ln x] = \frac{1}{x}. ] Applying L'Hopital's rule: Using the approximation as , we get:
-
41-45: Integral First, rewrite as , then split the integral: Using trigonometric identities and substitution, you can simplify and solve the integral, but the result involves a more complex form, including trigonometric substitution. We can proceed with a substitution, say , to solve it step-by-step.
-
46-50: Evaluate This is a standard integral representing the area of a quarter of a unit circle. The result is:
