Let α,β are the roots of the equation, x2-x-1=0 and Sn=2023αn+2024βn, then : [2024]
(4)
Given, α and β are the roots of x2-x-1=0
⇒α2-α-1=0 and β2-β-1=0
⇒α2=1+α and β2=1+β (i)
Now, S10=2023α10+2024β10 [∵Sn=2023αn+2024βn]
S11=2023α11+2024β11
⇒S10+S11=2023α10(1+α)+2024β10(1+β)
=2023α10·α2+2024β10·β2 [From (i)]
=2023α12+2024β12=S12
∴S12=S10+S11
