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 = k

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.
