The sum of the first n terms of an A.P. is 4n2 + 2n. Find the nth term of this A.P.
उत्तर
A.P. Sn = 4n2 + 2n
Sn-1 = 4(n − 1)2 + 2(n − 1)
Tn = Sn − Sn − 1
= 4n2 + 2n − 4(n − 1)2 − 2(n − 1)
= 4n2 + 2n − 4[n2 + 1 − 2n] − 2n + 2
= `4cancel(n^2) + cancel(2n) - cancel4n^2 - 4 8n - cancel2n + 2`
Tn = 8n − 2
