Question

The 11th term of an ap is zero. Prove that the 25th term of the ap is three times its 11th term

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Given a^4 = 0

That is (a + 3d) = 0

⇒ a = - 3d ........... (1)

nth term of AP is given by an = a + (n – 1)d

a^11 = a + 10d = – 3d + 10d = 7d  [From (1)]

a^25 = a+ 24d = – 3d + 24d = 21d  [From (1)]

      = 3 x 7d

Hence a^25 = 3 x a^11
