If a1a_1 is the first term, ana_n the nn-th term and SnS_n the sum of the first nn terms of an arithmetic progression, which statement is always true? a) Sn=n (a1+an)S_n = n\,(a_1 + a_n) b) Sn+1=Sn+anS_{n+1} = S_n + a_n c) Sn=n2(a1+an)S_n=\dfrac{n}{2}(a_1+a_n) d) Sn=n2(an−a1)S_n=\dfrac{n}{2}(a_n-a_1)
