Question:
Sum to n terms Of series.. 1+ (1+ 2) +(1+ 2+ 3)+ ............. Is equal to..
Answer:

Given series is:

1+ (1+2) + (1+2+3) + ................

The nth term of the series is

      an = 1+2+3+.........n

=> an = n(n+1)/2

=> an = (n2 + n)/2

Now, Sn = ∑ ak , where 1<= k<= n 

=>   Sn = ∑(n2 + n)/2

=>   Sn = (1/2)*∑(n2 + n)

=>  Sn = (1/2)*{∑n2 + ∑n}

=>  Sn = (1/2)*[{n*(n+1)*(2n+1)}/6 + n*(n+1)/2}

=>  Sn = (1/2)*n*(n+1)*[(2n+1)/6 + 1/2]

=>  Sn = (1/2)*n*(n+1)*[{(2n+1) + 3}/6]

=>  Sn = (1/2)*n*(n+1)*{(2n+4)/6}

=>  Sn = (1/12)*n*(n+1)*(2n+4)

So, the sum of the given series is (1/12)*n*(n+1)*(2n+4)
