Determine k so that k + 2, 4k - 6 and 3k - 2 are three consecutive terms of an AP. Q. 2. If mth term of A.P. is , and nth term is , show that the mnth terms is 1. Q. 3. The first, second and the last terms of an AP are p, q and 2p respectively. Show that its sum is Q. 4. A circle is completely divided into n sectors in such a way that the angles of the sectors are in arithmetic progression. If the smallest-of these angles is 8° and the largest 72°, calculate n and the angle in the fourth sector. Q. 5. Which term of AP: 3, 10, 17 ... will be 84 more than its 13th term? Q. 6. If 9th term of an AP is zero, prove that 29th term is double the 19th term. Q. 7. Find a, b such that 27, a, b - 6 are in A.P. Q. 8. For what value of n, the nth terms of the sequences 3, 10, 17,... and 63, 65, 67,... are equal. Q. 9. If m times the mth term of an AP is equal to n times its nth term show that the (m + n)th term of the AP is zero. Q. 10.

A competitor starts from a point in this line which is 5 meters from the nearest potato. Find the expression for the total distance run in collecting all the potatoes bringing one at a time to the starting point. Also, calculate the value of n if the total distance run is 162 meters.
