Answer:-
Given:
Sum of first n terms of three AP's are S₁ , S₂ , S₃.
First terms of three sequences = 1
Common difference of three sequences = 1 , 2 , 3.
We know that,
Sum of first n terms of an AP (Sₙ) = n/2 * [ 2a + (n - 1)d ]
So,
For First AP :
★ S₁ = n/2 * [ 2(1) + (n - 1)(1) ]
⟶ S₁ = n/2 ( 2 + n - 1)
⟶ S₁ = n(n + 1)/2 -- equation (1)
For Second AP :
★ S₂ = n/2 * [ 2(1) + (n - 1)(2) ]
⟶ S₂ = n/2 * ( 2 + 2n - 2)
⟶ S₂ = n² -- equation (2)
For third AP :
★ S₃ = n/2 * [ 2(1) + (n - 1)(3) ]
⟶ S₃ = n/2 * [ 2 + 3n - 3 ]
⟶ S₃ = n(3n - 1) / 2 -- equation (3).
Now,
We have to prove that:
S₁ + S₃ = 2S₂
Putting the values from equations (1) , (2) and (3) we get,
⟶ n(n + 1) / 2 + n(3n - 1)/2 = 2 × n²
⟶ n/2 * [ n + 1 + 3n - 1 ] = 2n²
⟶ 4n = 2n² * (2/n)
⟶ 4n = 4n
Hence, Proved.

♠️Question♠️
The sums of first n terms of three arithmetic progressions are S1, S2 and S3 respectively. The first term of each A.P. is 1 and their common differences are 1,2 and 3 respectively. Prove that S2 + S3 = 2Sr
♠️ AnswEr ♠️
We know that,
Sum of first n terms of A.P (S¹) = N/2 × [2a + (n - 1) d]
♠️ First a.p
S1 = N/2 × [2(1)+ (n - 1) (1)]
S1 = n /2 ( 2 + n -1)
S1 = n (n +1 ) / 2
♠️ Second A. P
S2 = N/2 × [2(1)+ (n - 1) (2)]
S2 = N/2 × (2 +2n -2)
S2 = N²
♠️ Third A. P
S3 = n/2 × [2(1) + (n-1)(3)]
S3 = n/2 × [ 2 + 3n -3]
S3 = n(3n -1) /2
♠️ To prove
S1 + S3 = 2S²
♠️ Putting values
n(n +1)/2 + n (3n -1) /2 × n²
n/2 × [ n+1+ 3n - 1] = 2n²
4n = 2n² × (2/n)
4n = 4n
