If a, b, c are in A.P. and a, x, b and b, y, c are in G.P., show that x2, b2, y2 are in A.P.
उत्तर
\[\text { a, b and c are in A . P } . \]
\[ \therefore 2b = a + c . . . . . . . (i)\]
\[\text { a, x and b are in G . P } . \]
\[ \therefore x^2 = ab . . . . . . . (ii)\]
\[\text { And, b, y and c are also in G . P } . \]
\[ \therefore y^2 = bc . . . . . . . (iii)\]
\[\text { Now, putting the values of a and c: } \]
\[ \Rightarrow 2b = \frac{x^2}{b} + \frac{y^2}{b}\]
\[ \Rightarrow 2 b^2 = x^2 + y^2 \]
\[\text { Therefore,} x^2 , b^2 \text { and } y^2 \text { are also in A . P } . \]
