Formulas and Key Relations

Meaning and Definition of Geometric Progression

Examples

3, 6, 12, 24... (r = 2); 4, -12, 36, -108... (r = -3); 2, 1, 1/2, 1/4... (r = 1/2)

Formula for nth Term

General term formula

T(n) = ar^(n-1) where a is first term and r is common ratio

Geometric Series and Sum Formulas

Different formulas for r = 1 and r ≠ 1 cases

Key relations

The constant value by which each term is multiplied to get the next term. r = T(n+1)/Tn.

Tn = ar^(n-1), where 'a' is the first term, 'r' is the common ratio, and 'n' is the position of the term.

When r = 1: Sn = na.

When r ≠ 1

Sn = a(r^n - 1)/(r - 1) or Sn = (rTn - a)/(r - 1).
