if the pth term of an A.P. is 1/q and the qth term is 1/p,show that the sum of pq terms is 1/2(pq+1).
Dear Student!
Let a and d be the first term and common difference of A.P. respectively.
Solving (1) and 2, we get
Sum of pq terms of the A.P. = Spq
Thus, the sum of pq terms of the given A.P. is .
Cheers!
