SUBJECT: MATHEMATICS – I PUC
NAME OF THE CHAPTER: SEQUENCE AND SERIES

SYNOPSIS
 Sequence: Arrangement of numbers or terms using some rule is called sequence.
 Finite/ Infinite Sequence: If the number of terms in the sequence is finite then it is called
finite sequence. Otherwise sequence is infinite
 Series: If 𝑎1 , 𝑎2 , 𝑎3 , … … . . , 𝑎𝑛 is any sequence then 𝑎1 + 𝑎2 + 𝑎3 + ⋯ … . . +𝑎𝑛 is called series
and it is denoted by ∑𝑛𝑟=1 𝑎𝑟 = ∑𝑎𝑟
 Geometric Progression[G.P] : A sequence is said to be in G.P if ratio of any two
consecutive terms are same. If 𝑎1 , 𝑎2 , 𝑎3 , 𝑎4 , … … … … . . 𝑎𝑛 is in G.P then
𝑎2 𝑎 𝑎
= 𝑎3 = ⋯ . = 𝑎 𝑛 is called common ratio and it is denoted by 𝑟
𝑎1 2 𝑛−1

 The consecutive terms of a G.P is given by 𝑎, 𝑎𝑟, 𝑎𝑟 2 , … … … . , 𝑎𝑟 𝑛−1
 The 𝑛th 𝑜𝑟 last term of G.P is given by 𝑇𝑛 or 𝒍 = 𝒂𝒓𝒏−𝟏
 Sum of 𝑛 terms of G.P: If 𝑎 is the first term and 𝑟 is the common ratio then sum of 𝑛
𝒂(𝒓𝒏 −𝟏) 𝒂(𝟏−𝒓𝒏 )
terms is given by 𝑺𝒏 = , where 𝑟 > 1 and 𝑺𝒏 = , where 𝑟 < 1
𝒓−𝟏 𝟏−𝒓

 If 𝑎 is the first term and 𝑟 is the common ratio then sum of ∞ terms is given by

𝟏−𝒓
 Geometrical Mean (G. M.): G.M. of any n positive numbers a1 , a2 , a3 , … . . an is
(a1 . a2 . a3 … . . an )1/n.

 Product of n GM's inserted between 'a' and 'b' is equal to n th power of the single GM
between 'a' and 'b' i.e. ∏𝑛𝑟=1 𝐺𝑟 = (G)n where G = √𝑎𝑏
 In a G.P. every term (except first) is GM of its two terms which are at equidistant from it.
i.e. Tr = √𝑇𝑟−𝑘 𝑇𝑟+𝑘 k < r
 In a finite G.P. , the number of terms be odd then its middle term is the G.M. of the first
and last term.

 If a1 , a2 , a3 … . an is a G.P. of non zero, non negative terms, then log a1 , log a2 , … … . log an is an
A.P. and vice-versa.
 If a1 , a2 , a3 ...... and b1 , b2 , b3 ...... are two G.P.'s then a1 b1 , a2 b2 , a3 b3 …. is also in G.P.
 Relation between A.M., & G.M.
A, G are AM and GM respectively between two numbers 'a' and 'b' then
a+b
A= , G = √ab, ⇒ A ≥ G

𝑛2 (𝑛+1)
 1 + 5 + 12 + 22 + 35 + ⋯ … … + n terms = 2

 If 𝑟 th term of an A.P. 𝑇𝑟 = 𝐴𝑟 3 + 𝐵𝑟 2 + 𝐶𝑟 + 𝐷, then sum of n term of AP is
𝑆𝑛 = ∑𝑛𝑟=1 𝑇𝑟 = 𝐴∑𝑛𝑟=1 𝑟 3 + 𝐵∑𝑛𝑟=1 𝑟 2 + C∑nr=1 r + D∑nr=1 1
 If number of terms in an A.P./G.P. is odd then its mid term is the A.M./G.M. between
the first and last number.
 If the number of terms in an A.P./G.P. is even then A.M./G.M. of its two middle terms is
