Define the sequence by
, where
represents radian measure. Find the index of the 100th term for which
.
If ,
. Then if
satisfies
,
, and
Since
is positive, it does not affect the sign of
. Let
. Now since
and
,
is negative if and only if
, or when
. Since
is irrational, there is always only one integer in the range, so there are values of
such that
at
. Then the hundredth such value will be when
and
.
