Ans- 2,4,6,8 and 8,6,4,2 Let the four terms be a-3d,a-d,a+d,a+3d.. Then sum of all this will be 20 which will give 4a=20 or a=5 Following second part of the question (a-3d)(a+3d)/(a-d)(a+d) => a^2-9d^2 /a^2-d^2=2/3 25-9d^2 /25-d^2= 2/3 75- 27d^2=50- 2d^2 25=25d^2 D=+1 or d=-1 So sequence...

Let the four terms of the AP = a -3d, a - d, a+d and a +3d. a -3d + a - d + a + d +a +3d = 20 4a = 20 a = 5 (a - 3d)(a +3d)/(a - d)(a + d) = 2/3 a2 - 9d2/a2 - d2 = 2/3 3(a2 - 9d2) = 2(a2 - d2) 3a2 - 27d2 = 2a2 - 2d2 a2 = 25d2 we have a = 5, substituting, we get 25 = 25d2 d2...

let us take 4 nos as x-(3a/2), x-(a/2), x+(3a/2), x+(a/2). adding these we get 4x=20, or, x=5. then acc to given condition, we get a=2. then putting all values we get all he 4 nos.

let the four numbers to be the a-3d ,a-d, a+d ,a+3d as the numbers are in arithmetic progressions with common difference: 2d and (a-3d) +(a-d)+(a+d) +(a+3d)=20 we get 4a=20 a=5 (a-3d)(a+3d)/(a+d)(a-d)=2/3 (a-3d)(a+3d)*3=(a+d)(a-d)*2 i.e. 3a^2-27d^2=2a^2-2d^2 a^2=25d^2 :now substitute a=5 we...
