What is the value of
1 0 2 − 9 2 + 8 2 − 7 2 + 6 2 − 5 2 + 4 2 − 3 2 + 2 2 − 1 2 ?

100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1
Could you please tell me about a source from where i could understand the formula in the last line, on this website

HI! Do i no u? Well, ofcourse i do. You are my classmate. :P
That is the formula for sum of n terms of an arithmetic progression. You will learn it in class 10
nice solution!
nice
good 1 sir
55
Easy
simple
100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1 This is silly problems
Hi Lorenc Bushi, you have a beatiful solution. That was impressive! Hey can we be friends in brilliant.org?
Muhammad Khan:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_progression
i think that the easiesr solution is
10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1
if u still don't understand u can comment :)
how? i don' understand -_-

Take a look the solution by Lorenc Bushi (It takes place above this solution). The final answer will form S = 3 + 7 + 1 1 + 1 5 + 1 9 , then expand like this: S = ( 1 + 2 ) + ( 3 + 4 ) + ( 5 + 6 ) + ( 7 + 8 ) + ( 9 + 1 0 ) .
Brilliant!! :-)
this is the simplest mothed
lol.
Didn't get it....can you please elaborate ?

3 words for you, WOW
How!!
Smart... :)
TRICKY!!!
10^2 − 9^2 +8^ 2 −7^ 2 +6^ 2 −5^ 2 +4^ 2 −3^ 2 +2^ 2 −1^ 2 ?
= (10 + 9)(10 – 9) + (8 +7)(8 – 7) + (6 + 5)(6 – 5) + (4 + 3)(4 – 3) + (2 + 1)(2 – 1)
= (10 + 9) + (8 +7) + (6 + 5) + (4 + 3) + (2 + 1)
= sum of numbers from 1 to 10 = 10 × 11/2 = 55
Use the formula a^2 – b^2 = (a + b)(a – b)
A square of a number is the number multiplied by itself. You can figure it out either by figuring out all of the squares and adding and subtracting the numbers as the question says, or you can add up all of the numbers without including the 2's for the squares. 10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1=55.
a 2 - b 2 = ( a + b ) (a - b)
Here every ( a - b ) will be 1
So every two term goes to :
( 10 + 9 ) + ( 8 + 7 ) + ( 6 + 5 ) + ( 4 + 3 ) + ( 2 + 1 )
=n (n + 1) / 2
=10 (10 + 1) / 2
=55
Wow, this is the easiest and legit answer I've seen here. Dont know why people dont vote it.
4^2 - 3^2 + 2^2 - 1^2 =
(4+3)(4-3) + (2+1)(2-1) =
4 + 3 + 2 + 1
That way the answer is:
10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1 =
55
10^2-9^2+8^2-7^2+6^2-5^2+4^2-3^2+2^2-1^2 simplify each to get.. 100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1 then solve according to the properties given Ans: 55
this is the best and simple way
100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+3=19+15+11+7+3=55
=100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1 =55
For two consecutive numbers square difference is the sum of numbers like (10 * 10) - (9 * 9) = 10 + 9. This will solve the problem quick.
nice formulae
100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1=55
using the formula a^2 - b^2 =(a+b)(a-b) we get (10+9)(1)+(8+7)(1)+(6+5)(1)+(4+3)(1)+(2+1)(1) which simplifies to 10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1
To get the sum of the series we can count it or we can use the formula (n)(n+1)/2 which'll again simplify to 10(10+1)/2 which is equal to ,the solution,55
S=( (1) ^ 2 + (2) ^2 + ............. (10) ^ 2 ) - ( 2* ( (2) ^2 ( 1^2 + 2^2 + 3^2 + 4^2 + 5^2) ) )
what we have to find is (-S)
100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+2-1=55
(10^2-9^2)=,100-81=19, (8^2-7^2)=,64-49=15, (6^2-5^2)=,36-25=9, (4^2-3^2)=,16-9=7, (2^2-1^2)=,4-1=3. so finally answer is 19+15+9+7+3=55.
simply addition and subtraction
there is pattern forming in this question-
10^2 - 9^2 =19
8^2 - 7^2 =15 ...... & So on
Therefore a series is forming with difference 4 -
19+15+11+7+3=55
sum of numbers 1 to 10 = 55
a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b).calculate all 10^2-9^2=19,8^2-7^2=15,6^2-5^2=11,4^2-3^2=7,2^2-1^2=3.then 19+15+11+7+3=55.
(10-9)(10+9) + (8-7)(8+7) + .........+(2-1)(2+1) = 19+15+11+7+3 = 55
TAKE the positive and negative values separately. Add positive values. from negative values take negative sign as common. and solve it.
100+64+36+16+4 = 220 81+49+25+9+1 =165 less 220-165 = 55 ans
(10 + 9)(10 - 9) + (8 +7)(8-7) +(6+5)(6-5) + (4+3)(4-3) +(2+1)(2-1) or 10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1
100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1 = 55
100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1=55
Note that 1 0 2 − 9 2 = 1 0 + 9 , 8 2 − 7 2 = 8 + 7 ...
Hence
1 0 2 − 9 2 + 8 2 − . . . − 3 2 + 2 2 − 1 2
= 1 0 + 9 + 8 + . . . + 3 + 2 + 1
= 2 1 0 × 1 1 = 5 5 .
10^2 - 1^2 = 99 -9^2 + 2^2 = -77 8^2 - 3^2 = 55 -7^2 + 4^2 = -33 6^2 - 5^2 = 11 55 is in the middle...answer is 55...i just figured that there is a pattern..
100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1=55
seperate the positive terms & also the negative terms.... after the above step we have 220 (solving +terms) & -165 ( negative terms) ...........=55
100-91+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1=55
100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1=55
(100)-(81)+(64)-(49)+(36)-(25)+(16)-(9)+(4)-(1)=55
Just take the squares and solve!
(10+9)(10-9) + (8+7)(8-7) +...........+ (2+1)(2-1) =1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10 =55
(2+1)(2-1)+(4+3)(4-3)+(6+5)(6-5)+(8+7)(8-7)+(10+9)(10-9)=3+7+11+15+19=55
simply , this is not a bog series so we can calculate easily sum even number squares are 210 and odd are 155 210-155=55 u can use series formula
=100-81+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1 =55
ok
Getting the squares of the numbers given ,100-99+64-49+36-25+16-9+4-1 rearrange the terms.100+64+36+16+4-99-49-25-1-9.adding positive numbers we get 220.by adding negative numbers we get 165.By subtraction, 220-165=55

Notice that : 1 0 2 − 9 2 = ( 1 0 + 9 ) ( 1 0 − 9 ) = 1 9
8 2 − 7 2 = ( 8 + 7 ) ( 8 − 7 ) = 1 5
6 2 − 5 2 = ( 6 + 5 ) ( 6 − 5 ) = 1 1
4 2 − 3 2 = ( 4 + 3 ) ( 4 − 3 ) = 7
2 2 − 1 2 = ( 2 + 1 ) ( 2 − 1 ) = 3 .Therefore the sum S = 1 9 + 1 5 + 1 1 + 7 + 3 which is an arithmetic progression with d = 4 , a 1 = 3 and n = 5 .We can use the formula :
S = 2 n ( 2 a 1 + ( n − 1 ) d ) , and by substituting we get S = 5 5
