Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To show that the sequence defined by \( a_n = 2n^2 + 1 \) is not an arithmetic progression (A.P.), we need to check if the difference between consecutive terms is constant. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Calculate the first three terms of the sequence:** - For \( n = 1 \): \[ a_1 = 2(1)^2 + 1 = 2 \cdot 1 + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3 ...
