9 rows can be made in total.
In 1 row - 1 square
2 -2
3-3 
4-4
5-5 
6-6
7-7
8-8
9-9
Plus them al-
1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9= 45

lovishgoel94: procedure will be this only??
lovishgoel94: is there any other method
Ashween: I think so. But u can also make a grid and then shoe one square in one row 2 in another and so on.
lovishgoel94: okay ...thanks

using formula of sum of n th term 
s(total sum) = n/2(2a + (n - 1)d )
where s = sum or here total squares = 45
a = 1st term or here no of square in 1st row = 1
n = no of terms or here no. of rows = n(let)
d = common difference or here no of squares which increase in each row = 1
so 
45 = n/2(2 + n - 1 )
⇒90= n(n + 1)
⇒n² + n - 90 = 0
doing middle term
⇒ n² +10n - 9n - 90 = 0
⇒n(n + 10) - 9(n + 10) = 0
⇒(n- 9)(n + 10 ) = 0
so n - 9 = 0⇒n = 9      and
   n + 10 = 0 ⇒ n = - 10 which is not possible 
so 9 rows is the answer.
