Example 4. Using binomial theorem, prove that $$6^n-5n$$ always leaves remainder 1 when divided by 25.

Example 6.  Show that the middle term in the expansion of $$(1+x)^{2n}$$ is $$\frac{1.3.5…(2n-1)}{n!} 2^n . x^n$$, where n is a positive integer.

Example 10. Find the term independent of x in the expansion of $$\left ( \frac{3}{2}x^2 – \frac{1}{3x} \right )^6$$.

Example 11. If the coefficients of $$a^{r-1}, a^r \text{ and } a^{r+1}$$ in the expansion of $$(1+a)^n$$ are in arithmetic progression, prove that $$n^2-n(4r+1)+4r^2-2=0$$.

Example 12. Show that the coefficient of the middle term in the expansion of $$(1+x)^{2n}$$ is equal to the sum of the coefficients of two middle terms in the expansion of $$(1+x)^{2n-1}$$.
