What is it simplified? Thanks for the answer.

Answer 1

# 3/sqrt10-1/sqrt2#.

We will attempt the following more General Solution :

#"Add : "(1-sqrt(1^2-1))/sqrt(1*2)+(2-sqrt(2^2-1))/sqrt(2.3)+(3-sqrt(3^2-1))/sqrt(3*4)+..."upto m terms"#.
Clearly, the General #n^(th)# Term, i.e., #T_n#, is given by,
#T_n=(n-sqrt(n^2-1))/sqrt(n(n+1))#,
#=n/sqrt(n(n+1))-sqrt(n^2-1)/sqrt(n(n+1))#.
#=(sqrtn*sqrtn)/(sqrtnsqrt(n+1))-(sqrt(n+1)sqrt(n-1))/(sqrtnsqrt(n+1))#,
#rArr T_n=sqrt(n/(n+1))-sqrt((n-1)/n)............................(ast)#.
#"Therefore, the sum "S_m=sum_(n=1)^(n=m)T_n#,
#=T_1+T_2+T_3+...+T_(m-1)+T_m#,
#={cancelsqrt(1/2)-sqrt(0/1)}+{cancelsqrt(2/3)-cancelsqrt(1/2)}+{cancelsqrt(3/4)-cancelsqrt(2/3)}+...+{cancelsqrt((m-1)/m)-cancelsqrt((m-2)/(m-1))}+{sqrt(m/(m+1))-cancelsqrt((m-1)/m)}...[because, (ast)]#,
#rArr S_m=sqrt(m/(m+1))-sqrt(0/1)=sqrt(m/(m+1))#.

Now, addressing to our case,

#"The Reqd. Sum="S_9-T_1=sqrt(9/10)-(1-sqrt(1^2-1))/sqrt(1*2)#,
#=sqrt(9/10)-1/sqrt2=3/sqrt10-1/sqrt2#.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
