Solution

The correct option is B Perfect square number
Triangular numbers are obtained by continued summation of natural numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,.....
Set of triangular numbers is 1,3,6,10,15,21,28.....

When we add two triangular numbers we get a perfect square number
For example, 1+3=4=22, 3+6=9=32, 6+10=16=42 and so on.

Hence, option A is correct.
