In a study of the progeny of rabbits, Fibonacci (ca. 1170-ca. 1240) encountered the sequence now bearing his name. The sequence

is defined recursively as follows.
an + 2 = an + an + 1, where a1 = 1 and a2 = 1.

(a) Write the first 12 terms of the sequence.

(b) Write the first 10 terms of the sequence defined below. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

bn =

an + 1/

an, n ? 1.

(c) The golden ratio ? can be defined by

limn ? In a study of the progeny of rabbits, Fibonacci (cbn = ?

The question in part c is not clear, nevertheless, part a and part b would be solved.

Answer:

a. The first twelve terms are:

1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144.

b. The first ten terms are:

1.000, 1.000, 1.500, 1.667, 1.600, 1.625, 1.615, 1.619, 1.618, 1.618.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Given

an + 2 = an + an + 1

where a1 = 1 and a2 = 1.

a3 = a1 + a2

= 2

a4 = a2 + a3

= 3

a5 = a3 + a4

= 5

a6 = a5 + a4

= 8

a7 = a6 + a5

= 13

a8 = a7 + a6

= 21

a9 = a8 + a7

= 34

a10 = a9 + a8

= 55

a11 = a10 + a9

= 89

a12 = a11 + a10

= 144

The first twelve terms are:

1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144.

(b)

Given

bn = an+1/an

b1 = a2/a1

= 1/1 = 1.000

b2 = a3/a2

= 2/1 = 1.000

b3 = a4/a3

= 3/2 = 1.500

b4 = a5/a4

= 5/3 = 1.667

b5 = a6/a5

= 8/5 = 1.600

b6 = a7/a6

= 13/8 = 1.625

b7 = a8/a7

= 21/13 = 1.615

b8 = a9/a8

= 34/21 = 1.619

b9 = a10/a9

= 55/34 = 1.618

b10 = a11/a10

= 89/55 = 1.618

The first ten terms are:

1.000, 1.000, 1.500, 1.667, 1.600, 1.625, 1.615, 1.619, 1.618, 1.618.

Javier has four cylindrical models. The heights, radii, and diagonals of the vertical cross-sections of the models are shown in
Ronch [10]

The model in which the lateral surface meets the base at right angle is : Model 1.

<h3>What is a lateral surface?</h3>

The lateral surface of an object is all surfaces  of that object excluding its base and top.

Analysis:

To know the exact model, we check for the models in which their dimensions form a Pythagorean triplet otherwise a right-angled triangle.

For Pythagorean triplet, the square of the diagonal must be equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.

Model 1

Diagonal = 50cm, radius = 14cm, lateral height = 48cm

(50)^{2} = (14)^{2} + (48)^{2}

2500 = 196 + 2304

2500 = 2500. Forms Pythagorean triplet

Model 2

Diagonal= 37cm, radius = 6cm  lateral height = 35cm

(37)^{2} = (35)^{2}+ (6)^{2}

1369 = 1225 +36

1369 \neq 1261

Model 3

Diagonal = 60cm, radius = 20cm  lateral height = 40cm

(60)^{2} = (20)^{2} + (40)^{2}

3600 = 400 + 1600

3600 \neq 2000

Model 4

Diagonal = 30cm, radius = 24cm, lateral height = 9cm

(30)^{2} = (24)^{2} + (9)^{2}

900 = 576 + 81

900 \neq 657

Therefore the lateral surface model 1 meets the base at right angle

In conclusion,  the lateral surface of model 1 meets the base at right angles as the dimensions form a right-angled triangle.

frutty [35]
In a triangle the sum of two sides is always greater than the third side.

If one side = 8 in and other two sides are equal to a positive whole number, then the smallest possible sum of the other two sides = 9 in ⇒
