Since n 2 5 1 i = 1 ∑ n 2 − 1 n + i n 2 5 1 i = 1 ∑ n 2 − 1 n − i = n 2 1 i = 1 ∑ n 2 − 1 1 + n 2 i → ∫ 0 1 1 + x d x = n 2 1 i = 1 ∑ n 2 − 1 1 − n 2 i → ∫ 0 1 1 − x d x as n → ∞ , and since elementary integration gives ∫ 0 1 1 + x d x = 1 5 8 ( 1 + 2 ) ∫ 0 1 1 − x d x = 1 5 8 we deduce that n → ∞ lim a n = ∫ 0 1 1 − x d x ∫ 0 1 1 + x d x = 1 + 2
