Let s 1 , s 2 , …. be squares such that for each n ≥ ≥ 1, the length of a side of s n equals the length of a diagonal of s n + 1 . If the length of a side of s 1 is 10 cm, then for which of the following values of n is the area of s n less than 1 sq. cm?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(b, c, d)
Let length of side of s n = x ⇒ length of diagonal of s n +1 = x ⇒ side of s n +1 = 
Areas are 100, 
, 
,…..
⇒ s n = 
100 < 1
