To prove that \( a, c, e \) are in G.P. given the conditions that \( a, b, c \) are in A.P., \( b, c, d \) are in G.P., and \( \frac{1}{c}, \frac{1}{d}, \frac{1}{e} \) are in A.P., we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Use the property of A.P. for \( a, b, c \) Since \( a, b, c \) are in A.P., we have: \[ 2b = a + c \quad \text{(1)} \] ...
