Question

Observe the following pattern
22 − 12 = 2 + 1
32 − 22 = 3 + 2
42 − 32 = 4 + 3 
52 − 42 = 5 + 4
and find the value of 

992 − 962

Solution

From the pattern, we can say that the difference between the squares of two consecutive numbers is the sum of the numbers itself.
In a formula:

`(n+1)^2-(n)^2=(n+1)+n`
