Question:
The sum of n terms of the series 22 + 42 + 62 +......, is _______________.
Solution:
Sum of n terms of series 22 + 42 + 62 + .........
Let nth term of series be denoted by⊤n
i.e ⊤n = (2n)2
then $\sum_{r=1}^{n} T_{r}=\sum_{r=1}^{n}(2 r)^{2}$
$=4 \sum_{r=1}^{n} r^{2}$
$=4\left[\frac{n(n+1)(2 n+1)}{6}\right]$
i.e sum of $n$ terms of $2^{2}+4^{2}+6^{2}=\frac{2}{3}[n(n+1)(2 n+1)]$
