To prove that the given sequences are in Arithmetic Progression (A.P.), we will use the property that for three numbers \( x, y, z \) to be in A.P., the condition \( 2y = x + z \) must hold. Given that \( a, b, c \) are in A.P., we can express this as: \[ 2b = a + c \] Now, let's prove each part step by step. ### (i) Prove that \( \frac{1}{bc}, \frac{1}{ca}, \frac{1}{ab} \) are in A.P. ...
