1. TRIANGLE NUMBER
variable(N),: 3

FORMULA: =
=1/2N(N+1)
=1/2(3)(3+1)
=6

Picture:

question: where do we get the 1/2N(N+1)formula? Prove it.
=============================================
2. PASCAL TRIANGLE
variable(N),:3

Picture:

question: how can we get the 2^(n-1)formula?Prove it.
======================================================

for N=1 it is 1
for N=2 it is 1+2
for N=3 it is 1+2+3

so,for some N=N it is 1+2+3+.....+n

using sum to arithematic progresion it is,
=N/2(2*1+(N-1)*1)
=1/2(N)(N+1).

Triangle formulae:

for N=1 it is 1
for N=2 it is 1+2
for N=3 it is 1+2+3

so,for some N=N it is 1+2+3+.....+n

using sum to arithematic progresion it is,
=N/2(2*1+(N-1)*1)
=1/2(N)(N+1).

Pascal triangle:

Hope you know binomial theorem,

for n=2 it is 1C0=1
for n=3 it is 2C0+2C1+2C2=4

so on obsevation for n=N it is sum of r=0 to r=n (N-1)C(r-1) = 2^(N-1)

to get that put x=1 in expansion of (x+1)^(N-1).
