1/(2^2+-1)+1/(4^2-1)+1/(6^2-1)......
...+1/(20^2-1)
= a^2 -b^ = (a+b)(a-b)
Put this formula and multiply and divide by 2
= {2/(2+1)(2-1) + 2/(4+1)(4-1) +..... 2/(20-1)(20+1) ) }*1/2
we can write numerator where there is 2 as (2+1)- (2-1) similarly
we can also write 2 as (4+1)-(4-1)
The equation will become
[1/(2-1) - 1/(2+1) +1/(4-1) -1/(4+1) ...1/(20-1) -1/(20+1) ] *1/2
On simplifying
[1-1/3 + 1/3 -1/5 +1/5 ...........-1/19 -1/21 ] *1/2
Cancel all the term
and simplify
ans = 10/21
