How do your use triangular numbers to make square numbers?
The sum of any two successive triangular number is a square number.The nth triangular number is n(n+1)/2 = (n2 +n)/2The next triangular number is (n+1)*(n+2)/2 = (n2 + 3n + 2)/2Their sum is (2n2 + 4n + 2)/2 = n2 + 2n + 1 = (n + 1)2This is easy to visualise. For example T3 + t4 = 42[T3, the 3th triangular number represented by X,t4, the 4th triangular number represented by x]XXX_____xXX_____xxX_____xxx_____xxxxBring them together and you have:XXXxXXxxXxxxxxxxThe sum of any two successive triangular number is a square number.The nth triangular number is n(n+1)/2 = (n2 +n)/2The next triangular number is (n+1)*(n+2)/2 = (n2 + 3n + 2)/2Their sum is (2n2 + 4n + 2)/2 = n2 + 2n + 1 = (n + 1)2This is easy to visualise.
