sequence
Sequence and Series
 Sequence – list of numbers which form
a pattern
 Series – sum of all the terms in a
sequence when all terms in the
sequence has a definite relationship
Finite and Infinite Sequence

 finite sequence has a definite


number of terms
 infinite sequence has an
uncountable number of terms

Arithmetic Sequence
-sequence of numbers where
the difference between the two
succeeding terms is constant

Geometric Sequence
-sequence of numbers where
each term is found by
multiplying the previous term
by a constant

Harmonic Sequence
-sequence of numbers whose
reciprocal form an arithmetic
sequence
Example

If we get the reciprocal of term, we will get


and these numbers form an arithmetic
sequence whose common difference is .
