$\sqrt{c+\sqrt{c+\sqrt{c+\cdots}}}$, or the limit of the sequence $x_{n+1} = \sqrt{c+x_n}$
i am trying to calculate the limit of $a_n:=\sqrt{1+\sqrt{1+\sqrt{1+\sqrt{1+}}}}..$ with $a_0:=1$ and $a_{n+1}:=\sqrt{1+a_n}$ i am badly stuck not knowing how to find the limit of this sequence and where to start the proof. i did some calculations but still cannot figure out the formal way of finding the limit of this sequence. what i tried is:
$$(1+(1+(1+..)^\frac{1}{2})^\frac{1}{2})^\frac{1}{2}$$ but i am totally stuck here
