Answer 2

the sum of consecutive odd numbers is the square of how many terms you have
\[1=1\]
\[1+3=4=2^2\]
\[1+3+5=9=3^2\]
\[1+3+5+7=16=4^2\]
\[1+3+5+7+9=25=5^2\] so the question is, how many odd numbers do you have?

Answer 3

hint, odd numbers look like
\[2n-1\] so set
\[2n-1=1001\] and solve for n. the square your result
