Algebraic proof
Rows of squares first: move one square from the longest row to the shortest and the rows are equal. Then write the numbers using n, collect like terms and factorise so the multiple can be seen. Sums of consecutive, odd and even numbers first, then expanding brackets, ending with odd numbers written as 2n + 1.
