CHAPTER 36Infinite Sequences
In Problems 36.1-36.18, write a formula for the nth term «„ of the sequence and determine its limit (if it exists). It is
understood that n = 1,2,3,....

In Problems 36.19-36.45, determine whether the given sequence converges, and, if it does, find the limit.
36.19 an = sin(rt7r/4).
The sequence takes on the values V2/2,1, V2/2,0, -V2/2, -1, - V2/2,0, and then keeps repeating in this
manner. Hence, there is no limit.
36.20 an = nle".
As L'Hopital's rule yields
36.21 an = (Inn) In.
The sequence converges to 0 (see Problem 36.15).
