Arithmetic Sequence and Sum Formulas
Explanation:
- $$a_1$$ is the first term
- $$d$$ is the common difference
- $$n$$ is the number of terms
- $$a_n$$ is the n-th term
- $$S_n$$ is the sum of the first n terms
An arithmetic progression (AP) is a sequence of numbers where the difference between consecutive terms is constant. It is widely used in mathematics for solving problems related to number patterns, savings plans, installment payments, and more. For example, the sequence 2, 5, 8, 11,… has a common difference of 3. This calculator allows you to calculate the n-th term, the total sum of terms, and verify patterns in an AP using simple formulas.
