MIND MAPPING

BASIC FACTS AND FORMULAE:

1. An arithmetic progression is a list of numbers in which each term is obtained by

adding a fixed number to the preceeding term, except the first term.

2. The difference between the two successive terms of an A.P. is called the common

difference.

3. Condition for a list of numbers to be in A.P: The numbers , , , … are

said to be in A.P., if − = − = …………

4. The General Form of an A.P: The general form of an A.P. with the first term a

and the common difference is given by , + , +2 , + 3 , ….

5. The General or n th term of an A.P: In an A.P. with first term a and the common
difference d, the General term or nth term is given by an  a  n  1 d

6. Selection of Terms in an A.P:

i) For three terms, we take a  d, a , a  d

ii) For four terms, we take: a  3d ,a  d , a  d , a  3d

iii) For five terms, we take −2 , − , , + and + 2 and so on.

7. nth term from the end of an A.P. is given by − ( − 1)d, where is last term, d is

common difference and n is number of terms.
