Question
Find the sum of the following arithmetic progression: $(x - y)^2, (x^2 + y^2), (x + y)^2$ ... to $n$ terms.

Answer

$(x - y)^2, (x^2 + y^2), (x + y)^2$ ... to $n$ terms. $\text{s}_\text{n}=\frac{\text{n}}{2}[2\text{a}+(\text{n}-1)\text{d}]$ $=\frac{\text{n}}{2}\big[2(\text{x}^2+\text{y}^2-2\text{xy})+(\text{x}-1)(-2\text{xy})\big]$ $=\text{n}[(\text{x}-\text{y})^2+(\text{n}-1)\text{xy}]$
