Prove the following by mathematical induction
Let {sn} be the sequence defined by s0=π4 and ∀n≥1, sn=sn−1+π.
Show: ∀n≥0, sn=4n+14π.
I think I should first show that ∀n≥1, sn=sn−1+π is just the same as ∀n≥0, 4n+14π, before I can proceed in proving ∀n≥0,sn=4n+14π by mathematical induction. However, I had a hard time in showing that the two are just equivalent and with that, I can't start proving the latter.
