Divide the sequence by 5 and the answer becomes very obvious:

1, 4, 9, 16,...N2

So, 5, 20, 45, 80,...5N2

To find the nth term of a sequence, we need to identify the pattern or rule that governs the sequence. In this case, the sequence 5, 20, 45, 80 appears to be increasing by multiples of consecutive odd numbers. The differences between the terms are 15, 25, and 35, which are consecutive odd numbers 5, 3, and 7. Therefore, the nth term can be represented by the formula n^2 + 4, where n is the position of the term in the sequence.

Oh, what a lovely sequence we have here! To find the Nth term, we need to look at the differences between consecutive numbers. Here, we see that the differences are increasing by 15 each time. So, the Nth term can be found using the formula 5 + 15(N-1).
