For finding, the sum of last ten terms, we write the given AP in reverse order i.e, 126, 124, 122,..., 12, 10, 8
Hence,first term (a) = 126, common difference, (d) = 124 - 126
So,![S _{10} = \frac{10}{2} [ 2a + (10 - 1)d ] \:](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S%20_%7B10%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B10%7D%7B2%7D%20%5B%202a%20%2B%20%2810%20-%201%29d%20%5D%20%5C%3A%20)
![= 5 [2(126) + 9( - 2) ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%3D%205%20%5B2%28126%29%20%2B%209%28%20-%202%29%20%5D%20)
Hence,first term (a) = 126, common difference, (d) = 124 - 126
So,
