If
the sum of first n terms of A.P is cn2, then the sum of squares of
these n terms is:
Solution:
(a)n(4n2-1)c2/6
(b) n(4n2+1)c2/3
(c) n(4n2-1)c2/3 (d) n(4n2+1)c2/6
Solution
follows here:
Sum of first n
terms = Sn= cn2
∴Sum of first (n-1) terms = Sn-1 = c(n-1)2
n th term = tn
= Sn- Sn-1 = c{n2 – (n-1)2} = c(2n-1)
To find sum of
squares of first n terms of this series, we need n th term of the series of
squares of the respective terms.
n th term of
the series of squares of the respective terms = tn’ = {c(2n-1)}2
= c2(2n-1)2
Sum of n terms
of the series of squares of the respective terms
= Sn’
= ∑c2(2n-1)2 = c2∑(2n-1)2 = c2∑(4n2-4n+1)
= c2{4∑n2-4∑n+∑1}
= c2{4n(n+1)(2n+1)/6
– 4n(n+1)/2 + n}
= n(4n2-1)c2/3
Answer (c)
