. We're sorry about the hassle.
it was awesome bro.i never expected that the solution is easy
its amazing ans
x squaring both sides x 2 = 9 0 + 9 0 + 9 0 + . . . . . . . . . . . = 9 0 + 9 0 + 9 0 + ⋯ = 9 0 + x
x 2 − x − 9 0 = 0 ( x − 1 0 ) ( x + 9 ) = 0 x = 1 0
we know , 90 = 10*9, so ..in this case..we can use a formula..that is , whenever the series is plus sign then the answer will be..two term between 10,9 ...the answer will be always major term ...i.e 10..& whenever the series are in negative sign then the answer will be minor term between two term...i.e 9..
x = (√90+(√90+(√90...)))
x^2 = 90+(√90+(√90+(√90...)))
So x^2 = 90 + x
=> x^2 - x - 90 = 0
=> x=-9 or x=10
We take x = 10 since the square root must be positive.
so x = 10
x=sqrt{90+x} hence solve
Let x = 9 0 + 9 0 + 9 0 + ⋯ x = 9 0 + x x 2 = 9 0 + x x 2 − x − 9 0 = 0 x = 1 0 o r x = − 9 as the infinite nested radical is positive so we discard the negative root and so x = 1 0
Let the given term be 'I' Then I=√(90+I) bcoz its an infinte series Then square both sides and solve the quadratic so formed
Infinite series does not imply that the substitution is valid.
We square both sides. Since √(90+√(90+√(90+√(90+...)))) is till infinity, we basically have x²=90+x solving which we get x=-9 or 10. Since we have the √ sign, we consider the positive answer. -9 would have also been correct if the question was x=(90+(90+(90+...)^½)^½)^½
Let x=√(90+√(90+ ...))
Therefore, we can say that x=√(90+x) (Since the expression keeps going on)
Square both sides
x^2=90 + x
x^2 - x - 90 = 0
(x-10)(x+9)= 0
If the product of two terms is 0, at least one of the terms must be zero. Therefore either x-10=0, meaning x=10 or x+9=0, meaning x= -9
However the √ symbol means we will only consider the positive radical, so x ≥ 0.
Clearly, out of our two solutions, x= 10 is the only solution that fits the requirement. Therefore, the value of the expression is 10.

x = 9 0 + 9 0 + 9 0 + . . .
⇒ x 2 = 9 0 + 9 0 + 9 0 + 9 0 + . . .
⇒ x 2 = 9 0 + x
⇒ x 2 − x − 9 0 = 0
⇒ ( x + 9 ) ( x − 1 0 ) = 0
x = − 9 , 1 0
Since the problem was expressed is positive terms...
x = 1 0
