An introduction to the art of proving by induction. A list of steps to follow in order to prove something using induction, and several famous examples of types of induction proofs.
This lesson is wonderful for anyone who is just being introduced to the art of proofs. Induction is a great starter proof that helps a student who is new to proofs wrap his or her head around the idea. Not only is the basic structure of a proof by induction explained, several examples are included for additional practice and understanding. A really great crash course in Induction, but containing no additional resources.
