Question

Prove (infinity)sqr = infinity

Answer 1

Questioning KHB, isn't infinity the limit of the function 1 over x as x approaches 0 from the right hand side?

Answer 2

Infinity is a concept rather than a number.
Consider x^5/x^2
the rate of growth of top will definitely faster than the bottom
so, when x=infinity
the top and bottom will both be infinity but the top must be bigger than the bottom
Thus,we can conclude that infinity is a concept but not a number
the same thing happen when infinity devide by infinity, it is not equal to 1 bcos infinity is not a number.
So,in your case, how can infinity be squared since it is not a number

Answer 3

Infinity^2 = infinity because 1^2 = 1 since infinity is infinity in itself times itself. You dig?

Answer 4

Infinity is the largest number available. So if you square it, you are only going to be it again. Look at the graphs of x^2 and x. The limit of them approaching infinity is infinity.

Answer 5

Well, first you need to define what ∞^2 means, because it's not a number and doesn't have multiplication or addition (and therefore division and subtraction) defined on it. If it did, then 0•âˆž=0 and ∞-∞=0. and actually, if ∞^2=∞, then ∞^2-∞=∞•(∞-1)=0 and therefore ∞=0 or 1. If then 2∞=∞, then ∞=0. That means that the larger a number gets, the closer it gets to 0. Ow, my head hurts. Oh wait, none of this is true because ∞^2 makes no sense.

Stellarfirefly made a mistake. It is not correct to say "any number divided by itself is 1," because it should be "any non-zero number divided by itself it 1." If ∞ is a number an ∞^2=∞, then ∞ can equal either 0 or 1.

Answer 6

the question to prove is as simple as the long living universe. it is just like infinity + infinity = infinity. i searched into wikipedia and found out that infinity into infinity = infinity. it can also be written as infinity square = infinity.

to proove it? here we go!

infinity is what? uncertinity. uncertinity is what? doubtness. this will go on and on... , but if we take infinity to be x and then do we square it we find the result to be x^2. the question you just gave is incorrect in some ways.

Answer 7

if infintey is a number so large we cannot get to it then there is no way to do simple math with it, thats like saying what is the distance between - infinity and infinity

Answer 8

Infinity is like nought. If you square nothing it remains nothing. . Infinity is everything. If you square everything, you still get everything, since it encompasses all and nothing can exist outside it. Plus it's not a number, since a number can be counted. Maths becomes obsolete when you can't count. I could go on forever :-)

Answer 9

Infinity is not a number, and thus it makes no sense in mathematics to square it. Consider if infinity were a number, and that any number divided by itself is equal to one. Then if your assertion were true, it would be valid to divide both sides of the equation by infinity:

(inf)^2 = (inf)
[(inf)^2]/(inf) = (inf)/(inf)
(inf) = 1

Answer 10

Infinty is infinity. Infinity cannot be added, subtracted, multiplied, divided, squared, anything. It will still be infinity.
