To prove that \( x, y, z \) are in a geometric progression (G.P.), we start by expressing \( x, y, z \) in terms of a general G.P. ### Step 1: Define the terms of the G.P. Let the first term of the G.P. be \( A \) and the common ratio be \( R \). Then, we can express the terms as follows: - The 4th term: \( x = A R^3 \) - The 10th term: \( y = A R^9 \) - The 16th term: \( z = A R^{15} \) ...
