Step-by-step explanation:
(i) Since a, b, c, d are in continued proportion then
a/b = b/c = c/d = k
⇒ a = bk, b = ck , c = dk
⇒ a = ck2
⇒ a = dk3, b = dk2 and c = dk
(ii) L.H.S. = (d2k6 + d2k4 + d2k2)(d2k4 + d2k2 + d2)
= d2k2 (k4 + k2 + 1).d2 (k4 + k2 + 1)
= d4k2(k4 + k2 + 1)2
R.H.S. = (ab + bc + cd)2
= (dk3.dk2 + dk2.dk + dk.d)2
= d4.k2(k4 + k2 + 1)2
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence proved.
