The sum of the first n odd numbers is equal to the nth square.
1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + . . . + (2n − 1) = n2
To prove this by mathematical induction, what will be the induction assumption?
1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + . . . + (2k − 1) = k2
2x1 − 1 = 12
1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + . . . + (2k − 1) + (2k + 1) = (k + 1)2

1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + . . . + (2n − 1) = n2
On the basis of this assumption,
[The statement is true for n = k:
1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + . . . + (2k − 1) = k2]
What must we show?
2x1 − 1 = 12
1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + . . . + (2k − 1) = k2
1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + . . . + (2k − 1) + (2k + 1) = (k + 1)2
