To prove that \( x, y, z \) are in Arithmetic Progression (A.P.), we need to show that \( 2y = x + z \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Given Condition**: We start with the condition that \( a, b, c \) are in Geometric Progression (G.P.) and that \( a^{1/x} = b^{1/y} = c^{1/z} \). Let us denote this common value as \( k \). Therefore, we can write: \[ a^{1/x} = k, \quad b^{1/y} = k, \quad c^{1/z} = k \] ...
