Dear Sarvesh
The given series is 1+5+12+22+35+..... difference are 4, 7, 10, 13,........ Therefore, it is in AP. Let, Tn=an^2+bn+c T1=a+b+c=1..........(1) T2=4a+2b+c=5.........(2) T3=9a+3b+c=12..........(3) subtracting eq.(1) from (2) we get, 4a+2b+c=5 a + b +c=1 _____________ 3a+b =4..............(4) Now, subtracting eq.(2) from (3) we get, 9a+3b+c=12 4a+2b+c= 5 ______________ 5a+b =7..............(5) Now, subtracting eq.(4) from (5) we get , 5a+b=7 3a+b=4 _________ 2a =3 a=3/2 putting the value of 'a' in eq.(4) we get, 3×3/2+b =4 9/2+b =4 b=4-9/2 b=-1/2 Now putting the value of 'a' and 'b' in eq. (1) we get, 3/2-1/2+c=1 2/2+c=1 1+c=1 c=1-1 c=0 substituting the value of 'a', 'b' and 'c' in Tn we get, Tn= 3n^2- n/2 Sn= ΣTn = Σ(3n^2-n/2) = 3/2 n(n+1)(2n+1)/6 - 1/2 n(n+1)/2 = 1/4 [n(n+1)] [2n+1-1] = n(n+1)n/2 = n^2 (n+1)/2
