For the Assertion (A) and Reason (R) the correct alternative from the following
(A): $$1^2 + 2^2 + 3^2 + ...... +49^2$$ = 40425
(R): Sum of the squares of the first n natural numbers is $$\frac{n(n + 1)(n + 2)}{6}$$
We know that sum of squares of first n naturals numbers is $$n(n+1)(2n+1)/6$$.
Condition A:
$$n=49.$$
so,$$1^2+2^2+3^2+......+49^2$$
$$=49×(49+1)(49×2+1)/6$$
$$=49×50×99/6$$
$$=40425.$$
Condition R:
$$n(n+1)(n+2)/6$$
$$=49×50×51/6$$
$$=20825.$$
which doesn't satisfy the given equation.
So,Option C is correct choice.
