बेरीज

Let fourth proportional to
3, 12, 15 be x.
then 3 : 12 :: 15 : x
⇒ 3 × x = 12 x 15
x = `(12 xx 15)/(3)`
= 60.

Find the fourth proportional to 3a, 6a² and 2ab²

If `a/b = c/d` Show that a + b : c + d = `sqrt(a^2 + b^2) : sqrt(c^2 + d^2)`.

What number must be added to each of the numbers 16, 26 and 40 so that the resulting numbers may be in continued proportion?

Show that the following numbers are in continued proportion:

48, 60, 75

If 9, x, x 49 are in proportion, find the value of x.

If `x/a = y/b = z/c`, prove that `"ax - by"/((a + b)(x- y)) + "by - cz"/((b + c)(y - z)) + "cz - ax"/((c + a)(z - x)` = 3

If a, b, c are in continued proportion, prove that: (a + b + c) (a – b + c) = a² + b² + c²

If a, b, c, d are in continued proportion, prove that: `(a^3 + b^3 + c^3)/(b^3 + c^3 + d^3) = a/d`

If a, b, c, d are in continued proportion, prove that: (a + d)(b + c) – (a + c)(b + d) = (b – c)²

Determine if the following are in proportion.
