Proving the Liouville Numbers are uncountable

The definition I'm given for the Liouville numbers is just that $x$ is Liouville if for every $N > 0$ there exists integers $p,q \geq 2$ such that$$\left|x-\frac{p}{q}\right| < \frac{1}{q^N}.$$I...

Does this sequence of polynomials converge to the square root function?

Taken from Lang's R & F Analysis (p.60). For some reason I can't see why, for $t \in [0,1]$, the following is true for all natural numbers $n$ (by an inductive argument):$$0 \leq \sqrt{t} - P_n(t)...
