Balls are arranged in rows to form an equilateral triangle. The first row consists of one ball, the second row consists of two balls and so on. If 669 more balls are added, then all the balls can be arranged in the shape of a square and each of the sides then contains 8 balls less than each side of the triangle had. The initial number of balls is (a) 1500 (b) 1540 (c) 1600 (d) 1690

Some identical balls are arranged in rows to form an equilateral triangle. The first row consists of one ball, the second row consists of row balls and so on. If 99 more identical balls are added to the total number of balls used in forming the equilateral triangle, then all these balls can be arranged in a square whose each side contains exactly 2 balls less than the number of balls each side of the triangle contains. Then, the number of balls used to form the equilateral triangle is
