Which of the following are APs? If they form an AP, find the common difference d and write three more terms.

, , …..


For a series to be in AP, the common difference (d) should be


Equal.


d1 = second term – first term = = 0


d2 = Third term - Second term = = 0


Since common difference is same the above series is in AP.


The next three terms will be the 5th, 6th, 7th.


5th term will be given by = a + (5-1)d = a + 4d = + 4(0) =


6th term is a + (6-1)d = a + 5d = + 5(0) =


7th term is a + (7-1)d = a + 6d = + 6(0) = .
