first of all we have the 5th term and 2nd term

T5=768 =a*r^4

T2=-12=a*r ^1

make a subject of formula in the both equations

that is a=T2/r and T5/r^4

a=12/r and a=768/r^4

when u equate them u will get

-64=r^3 so r=-4 then to find a that is 1st term

since second term is T2=a*r=12 an r=-4 then

a=12/-4 hence a=-3

To prove the QRST is a parallelogram.

Step 1: Given $\angle T \cong \angle R$ and $\overline{Q R} \| \overline{T S}$

Step 2: $\angle R Q S \text { and } \angle T S Q$ are alternate interior angles.

Definition of alternate interior angles

Step 3: Alternate interior angle theorem:

If two parallel lines cut by a transversal then the alternate interior angles are congruence.

QR and TS are parallel lines cut by QS.

Therefore, $\angle R Q S \cong \angle T S Q$

Step 4: Reflexive property of congruence:

Any geometric figure is congruence to itself.

Therefore, $\overline{Q S} \cong \overline{Q S}$

Step 5: By the above steps

$\angle T \cong \angle R$ (Angle), $\angle R Q S \cong \angle T S Q$ (Angle) and $\overline{Q S} \cong \overline{Q S}$ (Side)

Hence $\triangle Q T S \cong \triangle S R Q$ (by ASA congruence theorem)

Step 6: Corresponding parts of congruence triangles are congruent.

$\Rightarrow \ \overline{Q R} \cong \overline{T S}$

Step 7: Property of parallelogram:

If one pair of opposite sides are both parallel and congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

Hence Quadrilateral QRST is a parallelogram.
