Question

Find: 

18th term of the A.P.

\[\sqrt{2}, 3\sqrt{2}, 5\sqrt{2},\]

Advertisements

Solution

\[\sqrt{2}, 3\sqrt{2}, 5\sqrt{2}\]......

We have:

\[a = \sqrt{2}\]

\[d = 3\sqrt{2} - \sqrt{2} = 2\sqrt{2}\]

\[a_{18} = a + \left( 18 - 1 \right)d \left[ a_n = a + \left( n - 1 \right)d \right] \]

\[ = a + 17d\]

\[ = \sqrt{2} + 17\left( 2\sqrt{2} \right)\]

\[ = \sqrt{2} + 34\sqrt{2}\]

\[ = 35 \sqrt{2}\]
