To solve the problem, we need to show that \((q - r)a + (r - p)b + (p - q)c = 0\) given that the \(p^{th}\), \(q^{th}\), and \(r^{th}\) terms of an arithmetic progression (A.P.) are \(a\), \(b\), and \(c\) respectively. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the A.P. Terms**: The \(n^{th}\) term of an A.P. can be expressed as: \[ A_n = A_1 + (n - 1)d ...
