Answer:

given:

ar^4=1/4------->eq 1

ar^10=1/256----->eq 2

find: ar^14

solution:

divide eq 2 by  eq 1, we get

ar^4/ar^10 = 1/256 whole divided by 1/4

i.e. r^10-4 = 4/256

     r^6 = 1/64

     r^6 = (1/2)^6

     r=1/2.

wkt, ar^4 = 1/4

therefore, a=4.

=ar^14

=4(1/2)^14

=4×(1/16384)

=1/4096
