The length of BC I believe will be 8

First we will find the length of AB which is 1/3 the length of AC.

AB = 1/3 * 12 = 4

So AB is 4 and AC is 12 so we can subtract AB from AC to find BC.

12 - 4 = 8

So BC is 8.

Hope this helps :)

Prove by mathematical induction that 1+2+3+...+n= n(n+1)/2 please can someone help me with this ASAP. Thanks

Iteru [2.4K]

Let

$P(n):\ 1+2+\ldots+n = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}$

In order to prove this by induction, we first need to prove the base case, i.e. prove that P(1) is true:

$P(1):\ 1 = \dfrac{1\cdot 2}{2}=1$

So, the base case is ok. Now, we need to assume $P(n)$ and prove $P(n+1)$ .

$P(n+1)$ states that

$P(n+1):\ 1+2+\ldots+n+(n+1) = \dfrac{(n+1)(n+2)}{2}=\dfrac{n^2+3n+2}{2}$

Since we're assuming $P(n)$ , we can substitute the sum of the first n terms with their expression:

$\underbrace{1+2+\ldots+n}_{P(n)}+n+1 = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}+n+1=\dfrac{n(n+1)+2n+2}{2}=\dfrac{n^2+3n+2}{2}$

Which terminates the proof, since we showed that

$P(n+1):\ 1+2+\ldots+n+(n+1) =\dfrac{n^2+3n+2}{2}$

as required
