उत्तर

If in an A.P., Sn = qn2 and Sm = qm2, where Sr denotes the sum of r terms of the A.P., then Sq equals q3.

Explanation:

The given series is A.P. whose first term is a and common difference is d

∴ Sn = `n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]` = qn2

⇒ 2a + (n – 1)d = 2qn  ....(i)

Sm = `m/2 [2a + (m - 1)d]` = qm2

⇒ 2a + (m – 1)d = 2qm   .....(ii)

Solving equation (i) and equation (ii) we get

2a + (m – 1)d = 2qm
2a + (n – 1)d =   2qn  
(–)  (–)          (–)
      (m – n)d = 2qm – 2qn
      (m – n)d = 2q(m – n)

∴ d = 2q

Putting the value of d in equation (ii) we get

2a + (m – 1) · 2q = 2qm

⇒ 2a = 2qm – (m –1)2q

⇒ 2a = 2q(m – m + 1)

⇒ 2a = 2q

⇒ a = q

∴ Sq = `q/2 [2a + (q - 1)d]`

= `q/2[2q + (q - 1)2q]`

= `q/2[2q + 2q^2 - 2q]`

= `q/2 xx 2q^2`

= q
