to me, the inside can be replace by
\[(tan^{-1}(2)-tan^{-1}(1))+tan^{-1}(3)-tan^{-1}(2))+\cdots\]
OpenStudy (loser66):
So, we cancel the like terms. At the end, we have \(-tan^{-1}(1) +tan^{-1}(\infty)\)
But \(tan^{-1}(1) = \pi/4 \) and \(tan^{-1}(\infty) = \pi/2\)
So the answer should be \(\pi/4\)
Let's wait for some others.

as we used to say "telescopes"

Did you not understand what Lose did?

no lol

\[\rm \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\left(Atan(n+1)-Atan(n)\right)\]Expand out the sum by inputting the n values,\[\rm =(Atan2-Atan1)+(Atan3-Atan2)+(Atan4-Atan3)+...\]

What you should notice is that a bunch of stuff is going to cancel out,\[\rm =(\cancel{Atan2}-Atan1)+(Atan3\cancel{-Atan2})+(Atan4-Atan3)+...\]because of all the subtraction, ya?
There is one term in the front that doesn't cancel out with anything.
And there will also be one term in the very end that doesn't cancel with anything.
