Generally, I know how to calculate the sq roots or cube roots, but I am confused in this question, don't know how to do this:
√20+√20+√20+⋯
Note: Answer given in the key book is 5.
Not allowed to use calculator.
Answer
HINT:
Let S=√20+√20+√20+⋯ which is definitely >0
⟹S2=20+S⟺S2−S−20=0
But we need to show the convergence of the sum
