Let $a_1, a_2, a_3, \ldots$ be in an arithmetic progression of positive terms.

Let $A_k=a_1^2-a_2^2+a_3^2-a_4^2+\ldots+a_{2 k-1}^2-a_{2 k}^2$.

If $\mathrm{A}_3=-153, \mathrm{~A}_5=-435$ and $\mathrm{a}_1^2+\mathrm{a}_2^2+\mathrm{a}_3^2=66$, then $\mathrm{a}_{17}-\mathrm{A}_7$ is equal to ________.

<p>Let $a_n=a+(n-1) d \forall n \in N$</p> <p>$$\begin{aligned} A_k & =\left(a_1^2-a_2^2\right)+\left(a_3^2-a_4^2\right)+\ldots a_{2 k-1}^2-a_{2 k}^2 \\ & =(-d)\left(a_1+a_2+\ldots+a_{2 k}\right) \\ & A_k=(-d k)(2 a+(2 k-1) d) \\ \Rightarrow & A_3=(-3 d)(2 a+5 d)=-153 \\ \Rightarrow & d(2 a+5 d)=51 \quad \text{...
