Tm= n and Tn =m d= Tp-Tq/ p-q = Tm-Tn/ m-n = n-m / m-n = take - common ( m-n) / m-n = -1 consider Tm= n a+(m-1) d=n a-m+1= n a+1= m+n ( equation 1) Tn=n ( solve it same by above method) Tm+n = a+ ( m+n-1) d = a-m-n+1= a+1= m-n = m+n=m-n=0 hence we proved.

We know that nth term
m times = n times
m[a+(m-1)d] = n[a+(n-1)d]
ma + m²d - md = na + n²d - nd
ma - na + m²d - n²d +md - nd = 0
a(m-n) + d(m²-n²) + d(m-n) = 0
taking (m-n) common and simplifying
a + d(m+n) - d = 0
a + [(m+n)-1]d = 0
m times = n times
m[a+(m-1)d] = n[a+(n-1)d]
ma + m²d - md = na + n²d - nd
ma - na + m²d - n²d +md - nd = 0
a(m-n) + d(m²-n²) + d(m-n) = 0
taking (m-n) common and simplifying
a + d(m+n) - d = 0
a + [(m+n)-1]d = 0
