Find the sum of the series whose nth term is :
(2n – 1)2
Generalized term be (2r - 1)2=4r2 + 1 - 4r
1st term = 4(1)2 + 1 - 4(1)
2nd term =4(2)2 + 1 - 4(2)
And so on
nth term= 4n2 + 1 - 4n
Summation=1st term + 2nd term + …….. + nth term
= 4(1)2 + 1 - 4(1) + 4(2)2 + 1 - 4(2) ………4n2 + 1 - 4n ……(1)
We know ,
Thus
From (1) we have
Summation =
We know by property that:
∑axn + bxn - 1 + cxn - 2…….d0=a∑xn + b∑xn - 1 + c∑xn - 2…….. + d0∑1
Thus
(2)
We know
Thus substituting above values in (2)
