If the sum of an infinite \(GP\) \(a, ar, ar^{2}, a r^{3}, \ldots\) is \(15\) and the sum of the squares of its each term is \(150 ,\) then the sum of \(\mathrm{ar}^{2}, \mathrm{ar}^{4}, \mathrm{ar}^{6}, \ldots\) is :

  1. A \(\frac{5}{2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{2}\)
  3. C \(\frac{25}{2}\)
  4. D \(\frac{9}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Sum of infinite terms : \(\frac{\mathrm{a}}{1-\mathrm{r}}=15....(i)\) Series formed by square of terms: \(\mathrm{a}^{2}, \mathrm{a}^{2} \mathrm{r}^{2}, \mathrm{a}^{2} \mathrm{r}^{4}, \mathrm{a}^{2} r^{6} \ldots \ldots\)…
