question eleven
prove that the sum of numbers of the squares of any two consecutive numbers or integers is always an odd number.



Answer :

Answer:

Let x be an integer.

x² + (x + 1)² = x² + x² + 2x + 1

= 2x² + 2x + 1

= 2x(x + 1) + 1

2x(x + 1) is always an even integer, so 2x(x + 1) + 1 is always an odd integer.
