Solution

The given AP is `sqrt(2) , sqrt(8) , sqrt(18) ,................`

On simplifying the terms, we get:

`sqrt (2) , 2 sqrt(2) , 3 sqrt(2) ,..................`

`Here , a= sqrt(2) and d = ( 2 sqrt(2) - sqrt(2)) = sqrt(2)`

∴ Next term `T_4 = a + 3d = sqrt(2) + 3 sqrt(2) = 4 sqrt(2) = sqrt(32)`
