  3. Pentagonal number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_number

    The nth pentagonal number p n is the number of distinct dots in a pattern of dots consisting of the outlines of regular pentagons with sides up to n dots, when the pentagons are overlaid so that they share one vertex. For instance, the third one is formed from outlines comprising 1, 5 and 10 dots, but the 1, and 3 of the 5, coincide with 3 of ...
