OK, the other math questions are complete gibberish to me, so I'm gonna make up my own easier set of problems.
What is one way to find a sequence of squared numbers using only one perfect square and simple addition? To make your solutions shorter, you can express some numbers as derivitives. It helps if you know polynomials. I figured this out out of boredom and use it a lot.
If you don't understand the question, here's the less wordy way.
Given: x, x^2, y=x+1
Find y^2 without squaring y or adding y y times.

Given: x, x^2, y=x+1
Find y^2 without squaring y or adding y y times.
Here's the polynomial way of expressing it.
x^2
y=x^2+2x+1
x^2+2x+1-x^2=2x+1
Basically. x^2-y^2=x+y.
x^2
y=x^2+2x+1
x^2+2x+1-x^2=2x+1
Basically. x^2-y^2=x+y.
