To prove that the 4th, 10th, and 16th terms of a geometric progression (G.P.) are also in G.P., we start by expressing these terms in terms of the first term and the common ratio of the G.P. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the terms of the G.P.:** Let the first term of the G.P. be \( a \) and the common ratio be \( r \). - The 4th term \( x \) can be expressed as: \[ ...
