Let a be the first term and d be c.d. of the A P .Then

Sm=n

n= m/2{2a+ (m-1) d}  

2n= 2am+ m ( m-1)d. ........(1)

And

S n= m

m= n / 2{2a+ (n-1) d}

2m = 2an+ n (n-1) d. ...........(2)

Subtracting eq.(2)- (1), we get

2a (m -1) + { m ( m - 1)- n ( n-1)}d = 2 n - 2 m

2a (m-n) + {(m ^ 2-n ^ 2) - ( m-n ) }d = -2(m-n)

2a + (m+n-1) d = -2. [On dividing both sides by ( m - n)]………(3)  

Now,

Sm + n = m + n / 2{2a + (m + n - 1) d}

Sm + n = m + n / 2 (-2) ………[using (3)]

Sm + n= - ( m + n)

Hence Proved.
