SOLUTION
COMPLETE QUESTION
If p , q , r and s are in AP then r - q is equal to
(a) s - p
(b) s - q
(c) s - r
(d) None of these
EVALUATION
Here it is given that p , q , r and s are in AP
So there exists common difference
Let the common difference = d
So we have ,
d = 2nd term - 1st term = q - p
d = 3rd term - 2nd term = r - q
d = 4th term - 3rd term = s - r
Thus from above we see that
q - p = r - q = s - r
FINAL ANSWER
Hence the correct option is (c) s - r
