MATHEMATICS IS FUN TASTIC !

The triplet 1, 25, 49 forms an Arithmetic Progression ( If the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant, they are said to be in A.P.). Can you find some more such triplets? The given triplet is 1 = (1)2, 25 = (5)2, 49 = (7)2 i.e., (1)2, (5)2, (7)2 Similarly (a) (2)2, (2 5)2, (2 7)2 i.e., the triplet 4,100,196 form an A.P. (b) (3)2, (3 5)2, (3 7)2 i.e. the triplet 9, 225, 441 form an A.P. Generally, (n)2, (n 5)2, (n 7)2 i.e. the triple n2, 25n2, 49n2 form and A.P. Here, n = 1, 2, 3, Sanjay Ranade
