The sum of the first n squares, 1 2 2 2 n2 = n ( n 1) (2 n 1)/6 For example, 1 2 2 2 10 2 =10×11×21/6=385 This result is usually proved by a method known as mathematical induction, and whereas it is a useful method for showing that a formula is true, it does not offer any insight into where the formula comes from Instead we shall prove this result deductively, which will $(2^1 1)(2^2 1)(2^3 1)(2^n 1)$ Is it possible to help me for find answer? The first is a visual one involving only the formula for the area of a rectangle This is followed by two proofs using algebra The first uses "" notation and the second introduces you to the Sigma notation which makes the proof more precise A visual proof that 123n = n(n1)/2 We can visualize the sum 123n as a triangle of dots
