Step-by-step explanation:
Given, Sum of first 30 terms = Sum of first 20 terms.
∴ S₃₀ = S₂₀
⇒ (30/2)[2a + (30 - 1) * d] = (20/2)[2a + (20 - 1) * d]
⇒ 15[2a + 29d] = 10[2a + 19d]
⇒ 30a + 435d = 20a + 190d
⇒ 10a = -245d
⇒ a = 24.5d
Now,
Sum of first 50 terms = (50/2)[2a + (50 - 1) * d]
= 25[49d + 49 * d]
= 25[0]
= 0.
Therefore,Sum of first 50 terms is 0.
