The formula for the nth triangular number is n(n+1)/2. Therefore, the fourth triangular number is equal to 4 x (4+1) / 2 = (4 x 5) / 2 = 10. The fiftieth triangular number is equal to 50 x (50+1) / 2 = (50 x 51) / 2 = 1275.

The 50th triangular number is (50)(51)/2=1275
Oh, dude, it's like super simple. The 50th triangular number is just the sum of all the numbers from 1 to 50. So, you can use the formula n(n+1)/2, where n is 50 in this case. Plug it in, do the math, and boom, you've got your answer. It's like math, but with a little extra pizzazz.
