\[\sqrt{3}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}, \frac{1}{3\sqrt{3}}, . . .\]

उत्तर

Here,

\[\text { First term, } a = \sqrt{3}\]

\[\text { Common ratio, } r = \frac{a_2}{a_1} = \frac{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{1}{3}\]

\[ \therefore \text { nth term } = a_n = a r^{(n - 1)} = \sqrt{3} \left( \frac{1}{3} \right)^{n - 1} \]

\[\text { Thus, the nth term of the given GP is } \sqrt{3} \left( \frac{1}{3} \right)^{n - 1} .\]
