Question
If
and
are in G.P., then the equations
and
have a common root if
are in
- A.P.
- G.P.
- H.P.
- None of these
The correct answer is: A.P.
For first equation
(as given
are in G.P.)
equation has equal roots which are equal to
each
Thus it should also be the root of the second equation
Thus, 

(as
