Key Topics to Revise

1

1. Sequences and Basic Concepts

  • A sequence is an ordered arrangement of numbers following a definite pattern
  • Finite sequences have a limited number of terms, infinite sequences continue indefinitely
  • The nth term is denoted as tn and represents the general term of the sequence
2

2. Arithmetic Progression (A.P.)

  • In A.P., the difference between consecutive terms is constant (common difference 'd')
  • General form: a, a+d, a+2d, a+3d, ...
  • The nth term formula helps find any term without listing all previous terms
3

3. Geometric Progression (G.P.)

  • In G.P., the ratio between consecutive terms is constant (common ratio 'r')
  • General form: a, ar, ar², ar³, ...
  • Common ratio r = tn+1/tn for all values of n
4

4. Harmonic Progression (H.P.)

  • A sequence is in H.P. if reciprocals of its terms form an A.P.
  • H.P. has no direct formula for sum of terms
  • To work with H.P., convert to A.P. by taking reciprocals
