Abstract

http://dx.doi.org/10.5902/2179460X14415

The Brazilian Public Schools Mathematical Olympiad (OBMEP) stands out for presenting issues that contradict the model proposed in many textbooks. To solve the exercises OBMEP the student needs an creativity use of various mathematical concepts. Thinking of this, in this paper we examine some issues that involve some kind of recursive reasoning and which can cause unexpected solutions. This article is the result of a professional master’s dissertation (PROFMAT-UFSM), in which we present some classical results of recursive sequences and presented nonstandard solutions via mathematical recurrence for some issues that appeared in the OBMEP exams.
