Very cool video. I wish I was creative enough to understand these concepts. I minored in mathematics but spent most of my courses on linear algebra and probability. Number theory and stuff like this has always captured my interest. Can’t wait for the next one!
@@SyberMathdon't you agree this method is totally contrived and a cheat and no one would think of it? Could you not solve in a real wayblike rewriting as dqrt 1 plus n times sqrt 1 plus n plus 1 sqrtv1 plus n plus 2 where n is 3 and so on?

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

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.

Thank you IM SICK OF CONTRUVED CRAP.And plys tge reason to start with 4 is because you have 1 plus 3 is it not?

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!
@@yusufdenli9363but there us simplyvNO intelligent, valid, logical reason anyone would ever think of that to begin withbright?? For gids sake there isn't sobwhybis this method even allowed??

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?
