I found the uncertainties of A and Dmin, the uncertainty when they're added together and divided by two, the uncertainty of them in sin, the uncertainty of a/2 in sin and then the uncertainty of everything on the top divided by everything on the bottom?

I've been doing an experiment where I've used prisms and a spectrometer to find the exact angles inside the prisms and the refractive index of the prisms by finding the minimum angle of deviation. I have attached a picture of the formula I've been using to find the refractive indices. Where...

I've found the general solution to be y(x) = C1cos(x) + C2sin(x). I've also found a recursion relation for the equation to be: An+2 = -An / (n+2)(n+1) I now need to show that this recursion relation is equivalent to the general solution. How do I go about doing this? Any help would be...
