Geometric Series
Sum of Geometric
Sequence
LESSON LANGUAGE
Term
- is a number by itself, a variable by
itself, or a combination of numbers
and letters.
- If the term includes a variable it is
called an algebraic term.
Change the following into geometric series
If r = 1, then
=
Find the sum of the following geometric
sequence
1. 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6,…..20th term
2. -4, -4, -4, -4, -4, -4 …….72nd term
3. 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, ……..1000th term
4. -10, -10, -10, -10, -10, …..178th term
Sum of Geometric Sequence
Case 2
