Explain me, please.

OpenStudy (dan815):

for a decreasing sequence bn that summation converges

OpenStudy (dan815):

is it dirichlet?

OpenStudy (loser66):

Those are what my prof did in class.

The red parts are my explanation on the lecture so that I remember what is going on when reviewing for test. :)

OpenStudy (dan815):

it is still downloading, its going very slow

OpenStudy (loser66):

dan!!

OpenStudy (dan815):

ok hmm i see

OpenStudy (dan815):

lets take cos(ntheta)= Real part of {e^(itheta)}

OpenStudy (dan815):

what they are using as their argument is that hey look just like how an alternating sequence of (-1)^n multiplied by a decreasing series goes to 0, this also does the same thing

OpenStudy (dan815):

because for any thetea u pick, for varying n, you keep getting some number of positive and some number of negatives , both equal to each other, tho the addition of this decreasing bn sequences works slightly differently

OpenStudy (dan815):

but you can still definately show that you will be subtracting greater part than what u are adding in the next set

OpenStudy (dan815):

here is a picture to help you see
