Question
Kindly see ques no 44 and its solution too...they used a formula a = ar/1-r , i just want to know how this formula is derived i.e what is its origin because we use the formula for Infinite series sum of GP = a / 1-r
so on. Thus, the sum of first 2 terms is 2", of first 3
terms it is 3² and so on. For 1111111 terms it would
be 11111112 = 1234567654321. Option (d) is correct.
43. The area of the first square would be 1024 sq cm. the
would give 512, the third one 256 and
so on. The infinite sum of the geometric progression
= 2048. Option (a) is

Jerry drew a square of sides 32 cm
and then kept on drawing squares inside the squares
by joining the mid points of the squares. She con-
tinued this process indefinitely. Jerry asked Tom to
determine the sum of the areas of all the squares
that she drew. If Tom answered correctly then what
would be his answer?
