उत्तर

The given sequence is `2,2sqrt2, 4 ....`

Here, a = 2 and r = `(2sqrt2)/2 = sqrt2`

Let the nth term of the given sequence be 128.

an = arn - 1

= `2(sqrt2)^("n" - 1) = 128`

= `(2) (2)^((n - 1)/2) = (2)^7`

= `(2)^((n - 1)/2 + 1) = (2)^7`

∴ `("n" - 1)/2 = 6`

= n - 1 = 12

= n = 13

Thus, the 13th term of the given sequence is 128.
