What method did Peano rigorously treat?
Mathematical induction
Differentiation
Integration
Permutation
Answer
Mathematical induction, rigorously treated by Peano, is a fundamental method of proof in mathematics. It involves proving a base case for a given statement and then assuming the statement is true for some arbitrary natural number n and proving that it must also be true for n+1. By repeating this process, one can establish the truth of the statement for all natural numbers.
