How to Find the Geometric Means? Geometric Sequence - Grade 10 Math
Summary
TLDRIn this educational video, the teacher explains how to find the geometric means within a given sequence. Starting with the first term of 4 and the last term of 972, the tutorial guides viewers through the process of calculating the common ratio 'r' using the formula \( a_n = a_1 \times r^{(n-1)} \), and then finding the four missing terms to complete the sequence. The method involves multiplying each term by 'r' and solving for 'r' by taking the fifth root of 243, which results in 3. The video is an informative resource for understanding geometric sequences and their properties.
