Since the terms form an ap, the difference of two consecutive terms will always be equal to the common difference.
 {a1}^{2} - {a2}^{2} \\ = (a1 + a2)(a1 - a2) \\ = (a1 + a2)( - d)
Now we see that (-d) is common in all these terms as we group them together, and the number of terms won't be a problem since 2n is an even number. So we can simplify it to
 = - d(a1 + a2 + ......a2n) \\ = -dn(2a + (2n - 1)d)
Hope this helps, if it does, mark it as the brainliest answer.
