Question

Can anyone explain how to do mathematical induction. The question is below. Brainliest awarded for the right answer. Thanks.

Answer 1

The sum of the triangular numbers is $\frac{n(n+1)(n+2)}{6}$

According to the question, the series of triangular numbers is given as in the form of the number of dots constituting the equilateral triangles i.e.
1, 3, 6, 10, 15 . . . . .n

what is triangular numbers?

triangular number are the sequence and series of the numbers and each number represents and constitute in visualization of  series of  equilateral triangle.

given series in the figure
1, 3, 6, 10, 15, . . . . . .  ., n
each number represents the number of dots containing in triangle
now the series can be given by
$S = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$  for n = 1, 2, 3, 4,. . . . .n
now , according to the question the sum of the series can be given as
⇒  ∑S
⇒   ∑$\frac{n^2+n}{2}$
⇒  $\frac{1}{2}[\sum n^2+\sum n]\\\frac{1}{2}[\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}+\frac{n(n+1)}{2}] \\\frac{n(n+1)}{4}[\frac{(2n+1)}{3}+1] \\\frac{n(n+1)}{4}[\frac{(2n+1+3)}{3}] \\\frac{n(n+1)}{4}[\frac{(2n+4)}{3}] \\\frac{n(n+1)}{4}2[\frac{(n+2)}{3}]\\\frac{n(n+1)(n+2)}{6}$

Thus, the sum of the triangular number is given by $\frac{n(n+1)(n+2)}{6}$
