Let the positive numbers `a ,b ,ca d nd` be in the A.P. Then `a b c ,a b d ,a c d ,a n db c d` are a. not in A.P. /G.P./H.P. b. in A.P. c. in G.P. d. in H.P.

A

not in A.P./G.P./H.P.

B

in A.P.

C

in G.P.

D

in H.P.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

It is given that
a,b,c,d, are in A.P.
`rArr" "d,c,b,a` are in A.P.
`rArr" "(1)/(d),(1)/(c),(1)/(b),(1)/(a)` are in H.P.
`rArr" "(abcd)/(d),(abcd)/(c),(abcd)/(b),(abcd)/(a)` are in H.P.
`rArr" "` abc,abd,acd,bcd are in H.P.
