Which method of proof is used to establish de Moivre's theorem for natural numbers?
Aproof by contradiction
Bmathematical induction
Cthe pigeonhole principle
DCantor's diagonal argument
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. mathematical induction
The case S(1) is checked and S(k) is shown to imply S(k + 1), which is induction.
