Answer:

Formula,

S

n

=

2

n

[2a+(n−1)d]

Consider sum of first p terms,

S

p

=

2

p

[2a+(p−1)d]

Consider sum of first q terms,

S

q

=

2

q

[2a+(q−1)d]

Given,

S

p

=S

q

2

p

[2a+(p−1)d]=

2

q

[2a+(q−1)d]

p[2a+(p−1)d]=q[2a+(q−1)d]

2a(p−q)=d[(q−1)q−(p−1)p]

2a(p−q)=−d(p−q)[p+q−1]

2a(p−q)+d(p−q)[p+q−1]=0

(p−q)[2a+(p+q−1)d]=0

p−q

=0⇒[2a+(p+q−1)d]=0

Now,

S

p+q

=

2

p+q

[2a+(p+q−1)d]

=

2

p+q

×0

=0

Therefore the sum of p+q terms is 0.
