Find the value of this infinitely nested radical in terms of a. Is this even possible?
Edit: I believe that I have already solved it, though I would like confirmation that my work is correct. Here is my work for this question: solution in question

Hint: Taking a^2 common you will get $a^2\sqrt{1+√1+√1+√1+√1+...}$
Let y=$\sqrt{1+√1+√1+√1+√1+...}$
So,y=$\sqrt{1+y}$
Solve for y by squaring both sides
