How to determine the number of squares?

The pattern and the squares are represented as:

Pattern   Squares

1                 1

2                3

3               6

4             10

This can be rewritten as:

Pattern   Squares

1                 1

2                1 + 2

3                1 + 2 +3

4                1 + 2 + 3 +4

So, the number of squares on the 8th pattern is:

8th pattern = 1 + 2 + 3 +4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8

Evaluate

8th pattern = 36

Hence, there will be 36 squares in the 8th step
