(a-b)+(a+b)+(a)=36
3a=36
a=12
now
(a)(a-b)(a+b) =1620
(12)(144-b²)=1620
1728-1620= b²
b=√108
3a=36
a=12
now
(a)(a-b)(a+b) =1620
(12)(144-b²)=1620
1728-1620= b²
b=√108

Answer:
let the 3 terms of the ap's be :- a, a+b, a-b
given that :- sum of the 3 terms=36
a+(a+b)+(a-b)=36
3a=36
a=12
given that :- product of the 3 terms=1620
a(a+b)(a-b)=1620
12(12^2- b^2)=1620
12^2-b^2=1620/12
144-b^2=135
-b^2=135-144= -9
b^2= root9
b=3
therefore, sub value of a&b in a, a-b, a+b to get the 3 terms=
a=12
a+b= 15
a-b= 9
hence the 3 terms of the given ap are 12, 15 , 9.
hope it helps u .... if yes.....pls mark brainiest !!!
