Question
Write the next two terms of the A.P.: `sqrt(27), sqrt(48), sqrt(75)`......
Advertisements
Solution
Given A.P. is `sqrt(27), sqrt(48), sqrt(75)` ......
Here, a1 = `sqrt(27) = 3sqrt(3)`
a2 = `sqrt(48) = 4sqrt(3)`
∴ Common difference = `4sqrt(3) - 3sqrt(3)`
= `sqrt(3) (4 - 3) = sqrt(3)`
Now, Given a3 = `sqrt(75) = 5sqrt(3)`
∴ a4 = `6sqrt(3) = sqrt(108)`
And a5 = `7sqrt(3) = sqrt(147)`
Hence, next two terms are `sqrt(108)` and `sqrt(147)`.

Decide whether 301 is term of given sequence 5, 11, 17, 23, .....
Activity :- Here, d = `square`, therefore this sequence is an A.P.
a = 5, d = `square`
Let nth term of this A.P. be 301
tn = a + (n – 1) `square`
301 = 5 + (n – 1) × `square`
301 = 6n – 1
n = `302/6` = `square`
But n is not positive integer.
Therefore, 301 is `square` the term of sequence 5, 11, 17, 23, ......
