उत्तर

In a G.P. of positive terms, if any term is equal to the sum of the next two terms. Then the common ratio of the G.P. is 2 sin 18°.

Explanation:

Since tn = tn+1 + tn+2

⇒ arn–1 = arn + arn+1

⇒ 1 = r + r2

r = `(-1 +- sqrt(5))/2`

Since r > 0

Therefore, r = `2 (sqrt(5) - 1)/4`

= 2 sin 18°
