RE: My son taught me two Math tricks!

I got another. (I don't speak good english so excuse me if there is something I don't say right). The rule is: The sum of odds numbers in sequence starting at 1 is equal to the square of the quantity of numbers you summed.
There is the list for you to check:
1-----------1^2
1+3-------2^2
1+3+5---3^2
So if you want to see how much is 9^2 you just sum nine odds numbers in sequence starting at 1...
9^2=1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17(Nine odds nubers in sequence starting at 1).
It matches at any quantity you try.
Enjoy!Great trick! @justyy
