उत्तर

Let a and r be the 1st term and common ratio of the G.P. respectively.

∴ Sn = `"a"(("r"^"n" - 1)/("r" - 1)), "S"_(2"n") = "a"(("r"^(2"n") - 1)/("r" - 1)), "S"_(3"n") = "a"(("r"^(3"n") - 1)/("r" - 1))`

∴ S2n – Sn = `"a"(("r"^(2"n") - 1)/("r" - 1)) - "a"(("r"^"n" - 1)/("r" - 1))`

= `"a"/("r" - 1)("r"^(2"n") - 1 - "r"^"n" + 1)`

= `"a"/("r" - 1)("r"^(2"n") - "r"^"n")`

= `"ar"^"n"/("r" - 1) ("r"^"n" - 1)`

∴ S2n – Sn = `"r"^"n"*("a"("r"^"n" - 1))/("r" - 1)`     ....(i)

S3n – S2n = `"a"(("r"^(3"n") - 1)/("r" - 1)) - "a"(("r"^(2"n") - 1)/("r" - 1))`

= `"a"/("r" - 1)("r"^(3"n") - 1 - "r"^(2"n") + 1)`

= `"a"/("r" - 1)("r"^(3"n") - "r"^(2"n"))`

= `"a"/("r" - 1)*"r"^(2"n")("r"^"n" - 1)`

= `"a"*(("r"^"n" - 1)/("r" - 1))*"r"^(2"n")`

∴ Sn(S3n – S2n) = `["a"*(("r"^"n" - 1)/("r" - 1))]["a"*(("r"^"n" - 1)/("r" - 1))"r"^(2"n")]`

= `["r"^"n"*("a"("r"^"n" - 1))/("r" - 1)]^2`

∴ Sn(S3n – S2n) = (S2n – Sn)2   ....[From (i)]
