Answer:
- First term = 3
- Second term = 4
- Third term = 5
- Fourth term = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
- tₙ = n + 2
To Find:
- First four terms.
Which are:
- First term
- Second term
- Third term
- Fourth term
Concept:
- For finding all these following terms we have to substitute the value of n as the number of terms which we are going to find.
Finding the first term:
⟶ a₁ = 1 + 2
⟶ a₁ = 3
∴ First term = 3
Finding the second term:
⟶ a₂ = 2 + 2
⟶ a₂ = 4
∴ Second term = 4
Finding the third term:
⟶ a₃ = 3 + 2
⟶ a₃ = 5
∴ Third term = 5
Finding the fourth term:
⟶ a₄ = 4 + 2
⟶ a₄ = 6
∴ Fourth term = 6

Formulae used in an A.P.
- aₙ = a + (n - 1)d
- Sₙ = {n (2a + (n - 1)d}/2
- Sₙ = {n(a + l)}/2
Where,
- aₙ = nth term
- a = First term
- n = Number of terms
- d = Common difference
- Sₙ = Sum of nth terms
- l = Last term
