If one G.M. mean G and two A.M's p and q be inserted between two given numbers, prove that
`G^(2)= (2p-q) (2q-p)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the two quantities be a and b, then
`G^(2)=ab" " "……(i)"`
Again, `a,p,q,b` are in AP.
`therefore p-a=q-p=b-q`
`implies a=2p-q " " "……..(ii)"`
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
`G^(2)=(2p-q)(2q-p)`
