23. The Inter-dimensional Reccurence

Let VnV_n denote the volume of the unit ball in Rn\mathbb{R}^n.

First solve Question 4 to obtain a formula for VnV_n.

Using the formula obtained there, investigate how the volumes of unit balls in different dimensions are related. Derive a recurrence relation between terms of the sequence (Vn)n≥1(V_n)_{n\geq1} and prove that it holds for all applicable dimensions.
