radicals - Prove that the limit of sqrtn+1sqrtn is zero



How would I go about proving that lim? I have tried to use Squeeze theorem but have not been able to come up with bounds that converge to zero. Additionally, I don't think that converting to polar is possible here.


Answer



\sqrt{n+1}-\sqrt{n} = \frac{(\sqrt{n+1}-\sqrt{n})(\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n})}{\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{n+1}+\sqrt{n}} < \frac{1}{2\sqrt{n}}
