Question
If
= 0 and a, b, c are not in A.P., then -
Options
A.a, b, c are in G.P.
B.a, b/2, c are in A.P.
C.a, b/2, c are in H.P.
D.a, 2b, c are in H.P.
Solution
Given
= 0
⇒
= 0
⇒ (a + c - 2b)
= 0
As a + c - 2b ≠ 0
⇒
i.e. a, 2b, c are in H.P.
⇒
⇒ (a + c - 2b)
As a + c - 2b ≠ 0
⇒
i.e. a, 2b, c are in H.P.
