उत्तर

Let P(n) be the given statement.
Now, 

\[P(n) = 1 + 3 + 5 + . . . + (2n - 1) = n^2 \]

\[\text{ Step } 1: \]

\[P(1) = 1 = 1^2 \]

\[\text{ Hence, P(1) is true } . \]

\[\text{ Step } 2 : \]

\[\text{ Let P(m) be true . } \]

\[\text{ Then }, \]

\[1 + 3 + 5 + . . . + (2m - 1) = m^2 \]

\[\text{ To prove:}  P(m + 1) \text{ is true } . \]

\[i . e . , \]

\[1 + 3 + 5 + . . . + \left\{ 2\left( m + 1 \right) - 1 \right\} = \left( m + 1 \right)^2 \]

\[ \Rightarrow 1 + 3 + 5 + . . . + \left( 2m + 1 \right) = \left( m + 1 \right)^2 \]

\[\text{ Now, we have: } \]

\[1 + 3 + 5 + . . . + (2m - 1) = m^2 \]

\[ \Rightarrow 1 + 3 + . . . + (2m - 1) + (2m + 1) = m^2 + 2m + 1 \left[ \text{ Adding } 2m + 1 \text{ to both sides } \right]\]

\[ \Rightarrow 1 + 3 + 5 + . . . + (2m + 1) = (m + 1 )^2 \]

\[\text{ Hence, P(m + 1) is true}  . \]

\[\text{ By the principle of mathematical induction, P(n) is true for all n}  \in N . \]
