  2. Sylvester's sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvester's_sequence

    The sequence can be used to prove that there are infinitely many prime numbers, as any prime can divide at most one number in the sequence. More strongly, no prime factor of a number in the sequence can be congruent to 5 modulo 6, and the sequence can be used to prove that there are infinitely many primes congruent to 7 modulo 12. [20]

  3. Congruum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congruum

    a congruum is defined to be any number that can form the difference between successive square numbers in an arithmetic progression of three squares. That is, if , , and (for integers , , and ) are three square numbers that are equally spaced apart from each other, then the spacing between them, =, is called a congruum.

  4. Squared triangular number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squared_triangular_number

    A square whose side length is a triangular number can be partitioned into squares and half-squares whose areas add to cubes. From Gulley (2010).The n th coloured region shows n squares of dimension n by n (the rectangle is 1 evenly divided square), hence the area of the n th region is n times n × n.

  5. Pell number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pell_number

    The left side of this identity describes a square number, while the right side describes a triangular number, so the result is a square triangular number. Falcón and Díaz-Barrero (2006) proved another identity relating Pell numbers to squares and showing that the sum of the Pell numbers up to P 4n +1 is always a square:

  6. Difference of two squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Difference_of_two_squares

    The formula for the difference of two squares can be used for factoring polynomials that contain the square of a first quantity minus the square of a second quantity. For example, the polynomial can be factored as follows: = (+) = (+) (+) As a second example, the first two terms of + can be factored as (+) (), so we have:

  7. Square pyramidal number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_pyramidal_number

    All 14 squares in a 3×3-square (4×4-vertex) grid. As well as counting spheres in a pyramid, these numbers can be used to solve several other counting problems. For example, a common mathematical puzzle involves counting the squares in a large n by n square grid. [11] This count can be derived as follows: The number of 1 × 1 squares in the ...

    Super Bowl Squares value per square In this example, if a square is worth more than $50, it's better than average. Less, and you probably won't be leaving your Super Bowl party with some extra ...

  9. Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_theorem_on_sums_of...

    For the avoidance of ambiguity, zero will always be a valid possible constituent of "sums of two squares", so for example every square of an integer is trivially expressible as the sum of two squares by setting one of them to be zero. 1. The product of two numbers, each of which is a sum of two squares, is itself a sum of two squares.
