प्रश्न

If p, q, r, s are in G. P., show that p + q, q + r, r + s are also in G. P.

योग

उत्तर

p, q, r, s are in G.P.

∴ `"q"/"p" = "r"/"q" = "s"/"r"`

Let `"q"/"p" = "r"/"q" = "s"/"r"` = k

∴ q = pk, r = qk, s = rk
We have to prove that p + q, q + r, r + s are in G.P.

i.e. to prove that `"q + r"/"p + q" = "r + s"/"q + r"`

L.H.S. = `"q + r"/"p + q" ="q + qk"/"p + pk" = ("q"(1 + "k"))/("p"(1 + "k")) = "q"/"p"` = k

R.H.S. = `"r + s"/"q + r" ="r + rk"/"q +  qk" = ("r"(1 + "k"))/("q"(1 + "k")) = "r"/"q"` = k

∴ `"q + r"/"p + q"  ="r + s"/"q + r"`

∴ p + q, q + r, r + s are in G.P.
