Induction

Assignment

1. See the proof related to tiling from the Induction (II) page in the OneNote notes (in the Proofs section). Consider an 8x8 board with the "red" or missing square being the one in the lower right corner. Show how the proof by induction would construct a valid tiling for this board.
2. Consider the formula for a geometric sum. This is given in MCS problem 5.4 and also here on Wikipedia. Study

Tiling question from Induction (II) page in the notes MCS problems:
