TICS 10
MR. A. L. AGAPAY
TEACHER III
OBJECTIVES
At the end of the lesson you are expected to:
• manifest understanding of sum of Arithmetic
Sequence and Geometric Sequence;
• compute for the Sum of Arithmetic Sequence and
Geometric Sequence; and
• apply the concept of Sum of Arithmetic Sequence
and Sum of Geometric sequence in real-life
examples.
Activity 1: Arithmetic or
Geometric?
Determine whether the following is Arithmetic or
Geometric Sequence. Write A for AS and G for GS.
1. 9, 109, 209, 309, ...
2. 2, 10, 50, 250, ...
3. −8, −4, 0, 4, ...
4. 28, 26, 24, 22, ...
5. −1, −5, −25, −125, ...
SUM OF ARITHMETIC
SEQUENCE
The sum of the n terms of an arithmetic sequence is:
𝒏
𝑺 𝒏= [ 𝟐 𝒂 𝟏+ (𝒏 −𝟏 ) 𝒅]
𝟐
where: n = number of term
a1= first term
d = common difference
Example 1:
Given the arithmetic sequence 3, 13, 23, 33, …, find
the sum of the first 13 terms.
Example 2:
Find the sum of the first 10 terms of the arithmetic
sequence 3, 9, 15, 21, …
Example 3:
Find the sum of the first 25 terms of an arithmetic
sequence 18, 23, 28, 33, …
Example 4:
Given the sequence 12, 10, 8, 6, …, find the sum of
the first 21 terms.
Example 5:
Find the sum of the first 30 terms of the arithmetic
sequence -5, -9, -13, -17, …
Example 6:
What is the sum of the first 30 multiples of 6?
SUM OF ARITHMETIC
SEQUENCE
If the common difference is not given, we use:

𝑺 𝒏=𝒏 [
𝒂𝟏 + 𝒂𝒏
𝟐 ]
where: n = number of term
a1= first term
an = last term
Example 7:
Find the sum of the first 20 terms of an arithmetic
sequence if a1 = 5 and a20 = 62.
Example 8:
What is the sum of the first 50 counting numbers?
Example 9:
The sum of the first 10 terms of an arithmetic
sequence is 530. What is the first term if the last
term is 80?
Activity 2: Solve Me!
1. David wants to buy a cellphone worth ₱12, 000.
If he plans to save ₱100 on the first week, ₱200
on the second week, ₱400 on the third and so
on, will he be able to buy a cellphone after 7
weeks?
2. The third term of an arithmetic sequence is -5
and the sixth term is 7. What is the sum of the
first 10 terms?
