[5 points] Use the definition of Θ-notation to show that n2-3n+1 is Θ(n2
Added by Saksham B.
Step 1
We can do this by finding a constant c1 such that: c1 * n^2 ≤ n^2 - 3n + 1 Let's choose c1 = 1/2. Then we have: (1/2) * n^2 ≤ n^2 - 3n + 1 Now, let's find an upper bound for n^2 - 3n + 1. We can do this by finding a constant c2 such that: Show more…

If $U_{n}=\sin n \theta \sec ^{n} \theta, V_{n}=\cos n \theta \sec ^{n} \theta, n=0,1,2, \ldots \ldots \ldots$, prove that $V_{n}-V_{n-1}=-U_{n-1} \tan \theta .$ Hence deduce that $U_{1}+U_{2}+\ldots \ldots .+U_{n}=\cot \theta \sec ^{n+1} \theta\left(\cos ^{n+1} \theta-\cos (n+1) \theta\right)$.
