Mark the correct alternative in each of the following:
If S be the sum, P the product and R be the sum of the reciprocals of n terms of a GP, then is equal to
Let the GP is a , ar , ar2 , ar3 , .......... arⁿ⁻1.
S = Sum of n terms
= a + ar + ar2 + ar3 + .......+ arⁿ⁻1
and R = sum of reciprocal of n terms
P = product of n terms = a × ar × ar2 × ar3 × .....× arⁿ⁻1
=(a1⁺1⁺1⁺1⁺1⁺1⁺1⁺⁻⁻1)(r1⁺2⁺3⁺⁻⁻⁻⁻⁽ⁿ⁻1⁾〉
take square both sides,
