To show that \( A, B, C \) are in geometric progression (GP), we need to prove that \( B^2 = AC \). Let's break down the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Finding \( A \) The sum of the first \( n \) terms of a geometric progression (GP) is given by the formula: \[ A = S_n = \frac{A_1 (r^n - 1)}{r - 1} ...
