उत्तर

For an A.P. t2 = 12 and t4 = 20 

To find : S25 = ?

∴ tn = a+(n-1)d

∴ t2 = a+(2-1)d

∴ 12 = a + d   .....eq(1)

∴ t4 = a + (4 - 1)d

∴ 20 = a + 3d  ....eq(2)

Substracting eq(i) from eq(ii)

a + 3d = 20

`(a + d = 12)/(2d = 8)`

`"d" = 8/2`

∴ d = 4

Substituting d = 4 in eq (i)

a + d = 12

∴ a + 4 = 12

∴ a = 12 - 4

∴ a = 8

`"S"_"n" = "n"/2 ["2a" + ("n" - 1)"d"]`

`therefore "S"_25 = 25/2 [2(8) + (25 - 1)(4)]`

`= 25/2 [16 + 24(4)]`

`= 25/2[16 + 96]`

`= 25/2 xx 112`

= 1400

The sum of first 25 terms is 1400.
