उत्तर
a, b, c, d are in continued proportion
∴ `a/b = b/c = c/d` = k(say)
∴ c = dk, b = ck = dk. k = dk2,
a = bk = dk2. k = dk3
L.H.S. = (a + d)(b + c) – (a + c)(b + d)
= (dk3 + d) (dk2 + dk) – (dk3 + dk) (dk2 + d)
= d(k3 + 1) dk(k + 1) – dk (k2 + 1) d(k2 + 1)
= d2k(k + 1) (k3 + 1) – d2k (k2 + 1) (k2 + 1)
= d2k[k4 + k3 + k + 1 – k4 - 2k2 - 1]
= d2k[k3 – 2k2 + k]
= d2k2[k2 – 2k + 1]
= d2k2(k – 1)2
R.H.S. = (b – c)2
= (dk2 – dk)2
= d2k2(k – 1)2
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence proved.
