![**Problem 4.** Prove by induction that, for every \( n \geq 2 \)
\[
\left(1 - \frac{1}{2^2}\right)\left(1 - \frac{1}{3^2}\right)\left(1 - \frac{1}{4^2}\right) \ldots \left(1 - \frac{1}{n^2}\right) = \frac{n+1}{2n}
\]
There is a condition noted in red text stating \( n > 1 \).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F8a12718e-b890-484e-aede-b7a5034a009a%2Fd224a80e-cdbc-45c9-bc21-4fdf4c19e57a%2Frxpvp4o_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
