• In this method, we draw a Recurrence Tree
Recursion and calculate the time taken by every level of
Tree tree.
• Finally, we make the total of the work done
Method at all the levels.
● To draw the recurrence tree, we start from the given
equation of the recurrence and keep drawing till we find a
pattern.
● The pattern is typically an arithmetic series or geometric
series.
