Nth Term of an AP
If a is taken as the first term and d is taken as the common difference, then the Nth term of the AP will be given by the formula:
Arithmetic Progressions Class 10: NCERT Notes
Arithmetic progression(AP) also called an arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference from any succeeding term to its preceding term remains constant throughout the sequence
A progression is a sequence or series of numbers in which they are arranged in a particular order such that the relation between the consecutive terms of a series or sequence is always constant. In a progression, it is possible to obtain the nth term of the series.
In mathematics, there are 3 types of progressions:
- Arithmetic Progression (AP)
- Geometric Progression (GP)
- Harmonic Progression (HP)
let’s learn about AP in this article.
