Data :
$a_0 = 2$.
and for all n that in $N$ set $a_n+1 = sqrt3*a_n$.
prove that for every $n$ in $N$ $a_n<3$.
Now I know I need to use induction.
I did the first step and said that if $a_0=2$ and $2<3$ is really true, thats the base of my induction.
but I know I also need to use the series definition to prove the next step of the induction but im stuck there.

Let's assume the hypothesis is true for some $a_n$, i.e. $a_n < 3$. We need to verify it is also true for $a_n+1$.
But
$$
a_n+1 = sqrt3 a_n = sqrt3 cdot sqrta_n.
$$
Since $a_n < 3$ you have $sqrta_n < sqrt3$...

Here is the induction step spelled out.
Assuming $0<a_n<3$, show that $0<a_n+1=sqrt3a_n<3$
(I added the $0<$ just to make absolutely certain that the square root is allowed.)
