Arithmetic Progression (A.P.):
Sequence Form: a, a+d, a+2d, a+3d...
General term: Tn = a + (n-1)d
Sum of first n terms: Sn = n/2 * (2a + (n-1)d)
Special case for sum: Sn = n/2 * (First Term + Last Term)
Page 4
Properties of A.P.:
Tn = Sn - Sn-1
d = Tn - Tn-1
Conditions for terms in A.P.: 2b = a + c
For 3 terms in A.P.: (a-d, a, a+d)
Sum of 4 terms also builds on the properties.
Page 5
More Properties of A.P.:
kth term from last = (n-k+1)th term from start
If d > 0, the A.P. is increasing; if d < 0, it's decreasing
General term Tn is linear in n, while Sum Sn is a quadratic function in n.

Example of Total Terms:
If total terms = 82, then 18th term from the end = (82 - 18 + 1) = 65th from start.

Equation sample: Tn = a + (n-1)d, illustrating properties of different progressions.
