Show how geometric means say, G₁, G₂, …, Gn can be inserted between two numbers ‘a’ and ‘b’ in a geometric progression (G.P)?
Show how geometric means say, G₁, G₂, …, Gn can be inserted between two numbers ‘a’ and ‘b’ in a geometric progression (G.P)?
Sol.
Let common ratio = r
We proceed to insert geometric means like G₁, G₂, …, Gn between ‘a’ and ‘b’ in an geometric progression (A.P) as follows:
So, we proceed to insert geometric means like G₁, G₂, … , Gn between ‘a’ and ‘b’ , where
G1=ar=a.(ba)1(n+1), G2=ar2=a.(ba)2(n+1)
We proceed to insert geometric means like G₁, G₂, … , Gn between ‘a’ and ‘b’ , where
G1=ar=a.(ba)1(n+1), G2=ar2=a.(ba)2(n+1)
