Abstract: Mathematical induction is a fundamental method of proof in
mathematics, particularly useful in establishing the validity of formulas and statements
involving natural numbers. This article explores the principles and logical structure of
mathematical induction through carefully selected examples and step-by-step analyses.
By applying this method to various arithmetic and algebraic formulas, the study
demonstrates how induction provides a clear and rigorous approach to proof
construction.
