(22 + 42 + 62 + ... + 202) =?

Correct Answer: 1540

Explanation:

(2 2 + 4 2 + 6 2 + ... + 20 2 ) = (1 x 2) 2 + (2 x 2) 2 + (2 x 3) 2 + ... + (2 x 10) 2

= (22 x 12) + (22 x 22) + (22 x 32) + ... + (22 x 102)


= 22 x [12 + 22 + 32 + ... + 102]



[ Ref: (12 + 22 + 32 + ... + n2) = 1 n(n + 1)(2n + 1) ]
