Let the first term, common difference and number of terms of an AP are a, d and n respectively.

Given that, 9th term of an AP, T9 = 0 [∵ nth term of an AP, Tn = a + (n-1)d]

⇒ a + (9-1)d = 0

⇒ a + 8d = 0 ⇒ a = -8d ...(i)

Now, its 19th term , T19 = a + (19-1)d

= - 8d + 18d [from Eq.(i)]

= 10d ...(ii)

and its 29th term, T29 = a+(29-1)d

= -8d + 28d [from Eq.(i)]

= 20d = 2 × T19

Hence, its 29th term is twice its 19th term

Answer:

Proved below.

Step-by-step explanation:

a9 = a1 + 8d = 0          where a1 = first term and d = common difference.

we need to prove that

a1 + 28d = 2(a1 + 18d

simplifying:-

a1  + 36d - 28d = 0

a1 + 8d = 0 which is what we are given.

Therefore  the proposition is true.

Which of the following statements best describes the relationship between a line and a point in a plane? exactly one plane conta
Alexandra [31]

Answer: (b) exactly one plane contains a given line and a point not on the line.


Step-by-step explanation: The basic postulates of geometry are very-well known to all of us. For example-

(i) The intersection of two lines determines a point,

(ii) Two parallel lines give result to a plane,

(iii) A line and a point not on the line determines a plane, etc...

Thus, with the help of the third point, we can easily arrive at the conclusion that a given line and a point not lying on the line is contained in a plane. For example- see the attached figure, AB is a line and P is any point not on the line. They both contained in the plane ABC.

Hence, the correct option is (b).
