The answer is not 1. While it may seem like 1 raised to anything equals 1 (because 1x1=1, and 1x1x1=1, ad infinitum), this is actually not the case. The answer is that 1 raised to infinity is indeterminate. When dealing with infinity, you are talking about a non-finite number, so that essentially throws all rules about algebra out the window.
