Answer:
- Arithmetic Progression (AP) is a sequence of numbers in order in which the difference of any two consecutive numbers is a constant value. For example, the series of natural numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,… is an AP, which has a common difference between two successive terms (say 1 and 2) equal to 1 (2 -1).
- A Harmonic Progression (HP) is defined as a sequence of real numbers which is determined by taking the reciprocals of the arithmetic progression that does not contain 0. ... a, b, c, d are the values and n is the number of values present.
- In Maths, Geometric Progression (GP) is a type of sequence where each succeeding term is produced by multiplying each preceding term by a fixed number, which is called a common ratio. An example of GP is 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, …, where the common ratio is 2. ... Table of Contents: Definition.
