उत्तर

The number of terms in the expansion of (a + b + c)n, where n ∈ N is `((n + 1)(n + 2))/2`.

Explanation:

We have (a + b + c)n = [a + (b + c)]n

= an + nC1 an – 1 (b + c)1 + nC2 an – 2 (b + c)2 + ... + nCn (b + c)n

Further, expanding each term of R.H.S., we note that

First term consist of 1 term.

Second term on simplification gives 2 terms.

Third term on expansion gives 3 terms.

Similarly, fourth term on expansion gives 4 terms and so on.

The total number of terms = 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + (n + 1)

= `((n + 1)(n + 2))/2`
