Triangular Number Sequence

This is the Triangular Number Sequence:

<span>1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 28, 36, 45, ...</span>

This sequence comes from a pattern of dots that form a triangle:

By adding another row of dots and counting all the dots we can 
find the next number of the sequence.

A Rule

We can make a "Rule" so we can calculate any triangular number.

First, rearrange the dots (and give each pattern a number n), like this:

Then double the number of dots, and form them into a rectangle:

<span><span>The rectangles are n high and n+1 wide</span><span>and <span>xn</span> is how many dots in the triangle (the value of the Triangular Number n)</span></span>

And we get (remembering we doubled the dots):

<span>2xn = n(n+1)</span><span>xn = n(n+1)/2</span>

<span>Rule: xn = n(n+1)/2</span>

Example: the 5th Triangular Number is

x5 = 5(5+1)/2 = 15

Example: the 60th is

x60 = 60(60+1)/2 = 1830

Wasn't it much easier to use the formula than to add up all those dots?

You add one more each time you need to find the next number in the pattern. To find the number after 36 you have to add 9. Then, to find the number after that, you will have to add 10.

Identify the graph of the equation. What is the angle of rotation for the equation?<br><br>xy=-2.5
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

It is B. hyperbola, 45 degrees.

SteIt is p-by-step explanation:

If we rotate the standard form  x^2 - y^2 = 1 through 45 degrees we get xy = 1/2.

xy = -2.5 comes from x^2 - y^2 = -5  being rotated 45 degrees.

The measure of angle D is 5 times the measure of angle E. The two angles are supplementary. Find the measure of each angle
steposvetlana [31]
Angle e = x        angle d = 5x    supplementary means they add up to 180
x + 5x =180
6x = 180
6x/6 = 180/6
x = 30
so angle e = 30 and angle d = 5(30) = 150
