Series | Alternating Series Test (with Conditional/Absolute Convergence): Example 6

The video tutorial explains the alternating series test using a series involving cosine and square root functions. It demonstrates how to determine if a series is alternating by analyzing the numerator and denominator. The properties of the cosine function are discussed, emphasizing its range between -1 and 1. The tutorial applies the alternating series test to check for convergence and explains the difference between absolute and conditional convergence, using the p-series test to conclude that the series is conditionally convergent.
