This is a repost. The last time I posted this one it got buried somewhere

MY MAETHOD'S MAIN STAY :

divide n multiply 2

then it can b expressed difference of 2 terms, namely

2r2 + 1 + 2r && 2r2 + 1 - 2r

then it gets simpler

ANS : tan-1(2n2 + 2n + 1) - Î /4

I think this question was the first time i realised how good Prophet sir actually is :)

The proof i remember was so over the top (of my head) that i realised that I wud not have able to think the logic myself. :)

btw this is not even close to his best ;)

ans...

tan(inverse)(2n^2+2n)

Mani Pal Singh ·

ruk
chal main bhi aa gaya[4]
waise i thought like u akand

Akand ·

wel i think we shud convert it into d form tan-1A-tan-1B.....and all will be cancelled except sum terms and it will be easy to calculate........BUT IM NOT GETTIN IT

Anirudh Narayanan ·

tapan, u sound as if u are having a heart attack!!!

Hari Shankar ·

For doing that you must be able to convert the summand to the form

\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \sum_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{n} f\left(\frac{k}{n}\right)

See if that is possible here

Subash ·

@anirudh that can be done only when n→∞

this cannot be used here

here i think separate the term inside tan-1

tapanmast Vora ·

NO!!!!!!1 NEVER

Nice opportunity to ask something......how to convert summation to integral??

Do the 1 and n in this question become the lower and upper limits??

and does the tan-1.... become the function to integrate??
