उत्तर

\[a_4 = x\]

\[ \Rightarrow a r^3 = x\]

\[\text { Also }, a_{10} = y\]

\[ \Rightarrow a r^9 = y\]

\[\text { And, } a_{16} = z\]

\[ \Rightarrow a r^{15} = z\]

\[ \because \frac{y}{x} = \frac{a r^9}{a r^3} = r^6 \]

\[\text { and } \frac{z}{y} = \frac{a r^{15}}{a r^9} = r^6 \]

\[ \therefore \frac{y}{x} = \frac{z}{y}\]

\[\text { Therefore, x, y and z are in G . P } .\]
