It also defines arithmetic, geometric, and harmonic means and provides formulas to calculate them between two numbers.
Arithmetic progression
For class 10.
In mathematics, an arithmetic progression (AP) or arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference between the consecutive terms is constant
SEQUENCE AND SERIES
SEQUENCE
Is a set of numbers written in a definite order such that there is a rule by which the terms are obtained. Or
Is a set of number with a simple pattern.
Example
1. A set of even numbers
• 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 ……
2. A set of odd numbers
• 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11….
Knowing the pattern the next number from the previous can be obtained.
Example
1. Find the next term from the sequence
• 2, 7, 12, 17, 22, 27, 32
The next term is 37.
2. Given the sequence
• 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12………

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
1. 1. DEFINITION :
Sequence :
A succession of terms a1 , a2 , a3 , a4 ........ formed according to some rule or law
Examples are : 1, 4, 9, 16, 25
–1, 1, –1, 1,........
A finite sequence has a finite (i.e. limited) number of terms, as in the first example above. An infinite sequence has
an unlimited number of terms, i.e. there is no last term, as in the second example.
Series :
The indicated sum of the terms of a sequence. In the case of a finite sequence a1 , a2 , a3 ,................, an the corresponding
series is a1 + a2 + a3 + ........ + an = ∑ak This series has a finite or limited number of terms and is called a finite series.
examples of series
1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9………..99
1/5 + 4/5 + 9/5 + 16/5
n
k=1
2. 2. ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION (A.P.) :
A.P. is a sequence whose terms differ by a fixed number. This fixed number is called the common difference. If a is the first
term & d the common difference, then A.P. can be written as
a, a + d, a + 2d, .............., a + (n – 1) d , ..........
(a). nth term of AP Tn = a + (n – 1)d , where d = t n – tn–1
(b). The sum of the first n terms: Sn = n/2[2a + (n-1).d] = n/2[a + l] where l is nth term.
Note: nth term Tn = Sn – Sn-1
3. PROPERTIES OF A.P. :
• If each term of an A.P. is increased, decreased, multiplied, or divided by some nonzero number, then the resulting sequence is
also an A.P.
• Three numbers in A.P. : a – d, a, a + d (odd numbers)
Four numbers in A.P. : a – 3d, a – d, a + d, a + 3d (even numbers)
• The common difference can be zero, positive or negative.
• kth term from the last = (n – k +1)th term from the beginning (If total number of terms = n).
• The sum of the two terms of an AP equidistant from the beginning & end is constant and equal to the sum of first & last
terms. Tk + Tn–k+1 = constant = a + l
• If a, b, c are in AP, then 2b = a + c
3. 4. GEOMETRIC PROGRESSION (G.P.) :
G.P. is a sequence of non-zero numbers each of the succeeding terms is equal to the preceding term multiplied by a constant.
Thus in a GP, the ratio of successive terms is constant. This constant factor is called the COMMON RATIO of the sequence & is
obtained by dividing any term by the immediately previous term. Therefore a, ar, ar2 , ar3 , ar4 , .......... is a GP with 'a' as the
first term & 'r' as the common ratio.
(a). nth term ; Tn = a r^(n-1)
(b). Sum of the first n terms; Sn = a(r^n – 1)/(r-1), if r = 1
(c). Sum of infinite G.P., Sꝏ =a/(r – 1); 0<IrI<1
some examples of the G.P. series:
2,4,8,16,32………….
-1,-2,-4,-8,…………..
1,-2,4,-8,16,………..
1,1/2,1/4,1/8,……….
4. 5. PROPERTIES OF GP :
(a) If each term of a G.P. is multiplied or divided by some non-zero quantity, then the resulting sequence is also a G.P.
(b) Three consecutive terms of a GP : a/r, a, ar ;
Four consecutive terms of a GP : a/r^3 , a/r, ar, ar^3
(c) If a, b, c are in G.P. then b^2 =ac.
(d) If in a G.P, the product of two terms which are equidistant from the first and the last term, is constant and is equal to the
product of the first and last term Tk . Tn–k+1 = constant = a.l where l = last term
(e) If each term of a G.P. is raised to the same power, then the resulting sequence is also a G.P.
(f) If the terms of a given G.P. are chosen at regular intervals, then the new sequence is also a G.P.
(g) If a1 , a2 , a3 .....an is a G.P. of positive terms, then log a1 , log a2 ,.....log an is an A.P. and vice-versa.
(h) If a1 , a2 , a3 ..... and b1 , b2 , b3 ..... are two G.P.'s then a1.b1 , a2 .b2 , a3 .b3 ..... & a1/b1,a2/b2,a3/b3 is also in G.P.
(i) In a G.P., Tr^2 = Tr–k. Tr+k, k < r, r =1
5. 6. HARMONIC PROGRESSION (H.P.) :
A sequence is said to be in H.P. if the reciprocal of its terms are in AP.
If the sequence a1 , a2 , a3 , ......., an is an HP then 1/a1 , 1/a2 ,........., 1/an is an AP . Here we do not have the formula for the
sum of the n terms of an HP. The general form of a harmonic progression is
1/a, 1/(a+d), 1/(a+2d), 1/(a+3d),1/(a+4d),………..1/(a+(n-1).d)
Example of HP
1,1/2,1/3,1/4,1/5
7. ARITHMETICO - GEOMETRIC SERIES :
A series, each term of which is formed by multiplying the corresponding term of an A.P. & G.P. is called the Arithmetico-
Geometric Series , e.g. 1+ 3x + 5x^2 + 7x^3 + .........
Here 1, 3, 5, ........ are in A.P. & 1, x, x2 , x3 ............. are in G.P.
6. 7. MEANS
(a) ARITHMETIC MEAN :
If three terms are in A.P. then the middle term is called the A.M. between the other two, so if a, b, c.
are in A.P., b is A.M. of a & c. So A.M. of a and c, b(A.M.)= a + c / 2.
n-ARITHMETIC MEANS BETWEEN TWO NUMBERS :
If a,b be any two given numbers & a, A1 , A2 , .........., An , b are in AP, then A1 , A2 ,........An are the 'n' A.M’s between a & b
then. A1 = a + d , A2 = a + 2d ,......, An = a + nd or b – d, where d = (b-a)/(n+1)
(b) GEOMETRIC MEAN :
If a, b, c are in G.P., then b is the G.M. between a & c, b^2 = ac. So G.M. of a and c, G.M.^2 = ac
n-GEOMETRIC MEANS BETWEEN TWO NUMBERS :
If a, b are two given positive numbers & a, G1 , G2 , ........, Gn , b are in G.P. Then G1 , G2 , G3 ,.......Gn are 'n' G.Ms between a
& b. where b = ar^n+1 r = (b/a)^(1/(n+1))
G1 = a(b/a)^(1/(n+1)), G2 = a(b/a)^(2/(n+1)) , Gn = a(b/a)^(n/n+1)
(c) HARMONIC MEAN :
If a, b, c are in H.P., then b is H.M. between a & c. So H.M. of a and c, 2ac/(a+c) = H.M.
