pentagonal numbers
Pentagonal numbers are figurate numbers of the form  $n(3n-1)/2$  (see picture aside).

Every pentagonal number is equal to a triangular number divided by 3.

The sum of the reciprocals of pentagonal numbers is

\[\frac{1}{3} \left(9 \log(3)-\sqrt{3} \pi \right)\,.\]

The first pentagonal numbers are 1, 5, 12, 22, 35, 51, 70, 92, 117, 145, 176, 210, 247, 287, 330, 376, 425, 477, 532, 590, 651, 715 more terms
