Let aa and bb be positive real numbers. Define two sequences of real numbers {an}\left\{a_{n}\right\} and {bn}\left\{b_{n}\right\} for all positive integers nn by (a+bi)n=an+bni(a+b i)^{n}=a_{n}+b_{n} i. Prove that

∣an+1∣+∣bn+1∣∣an∣+∣bn∣≥a2+b2a+b\frac{\left|a_{n+1}\right|+\left|b_{n+1}\right|}{\left|a_{n}\right|+\left|b_{n}\right|} \geq \frac{a^{2}+b^{2}}{a+b}

for all positive integers nn.
