The triangular number sequence goes like this:
1+2= 3
(1+2)+3=6
(1+2+3)+4= 10
and so on. In each row a new natural number is added to the sequence. The number is always one higher than the previous one. For the sequential number n, the triangular number is equal to [n (n + 1)/2] e.g. the 25th number is (25x26)/2 = 325.

1 = 1
