A Correct answer
Explanation

Triangular numbers are obtained by continued summation of natural numbers $1,2,3,4,5,6,7,.....$ 

$\therefore$ Set of triangular numbers is $1,3,6,10,15,21,28.....$
When we add two triangular numbers we get a Square number. 

For example, $1+3=4=2^2$,   $3+6=9=3^2$,   $6+10=16=4^2$ and so on.....
Hence, option A is correct.

A Correct answer
Explanation

$185$ $=$ $(200-15)$

$185^{2}$ $=$ $(200-15)^{2}$
$(200-15)^{2}$ $=$ $200^{2}$ $+$ $15^{2}$ $-$ $2\times200\times15$
$185^{2}$ $=$ $40000$ $+$ $225$ $-$$6000$
$185^{2}$ $=$ $34225$
Hence, Option A is correct.
