Σ(from n=1 to ∞) n / (n + 1)! = 1.
30. b. By differentiating the series in part (a) term by term, show that
Σ(from n=1 to ∞) n / (n + 1)! = 1.
The series
sec x = 1 + x²/2 + 5x⁴/24 + 61x⁶/720 + 277x⁸/8064 + ⋯
converges to sec x for −π/2 < x < π/2.
a. Find the first five terms of a power series for the function ln|sec x + tan x|. For what values of x should the series converge?
