Answer
Given,
List = 12, 52, 72, 73 …..
= 1, 25, 49, 73, ……..
Here,
a2 - a1 = 25 - 1 = 24
a3 - a2 = 49 - 25 = 24.
Since, common difference between consecutive terms are equal.
Hence, it forms an A.P.
Next term = 73 + d = 73 + 24 = 97.
Hence, Option 3 is the correct option.

If A, B and C are three arithmetic progressions (APs) as given below :
A = 2, 4, 6, 8, …….. upto n terms
B = 3, 6, 9, 12, …… upto n terms
C = 0, 4, 8, 12, …… upto n terms, then
out of A + B, A - C, C - B and B - A which is/are A.P. ?
A + B
A - C
C - B
All are A.P.
In an A.P. a = -36, d = 18 and l = 36, then n is :

For the given numbers
Assertion (A):
To find whether these terms form an A.P. or not. Express each term as the product of a natural number and i.e.,
, etc.
Reason (R): Since, for the given number difference between the consecutive term is same. It is an A.P.
A is true, R is false.
A is false, R is true.
Both A and R are true and R is correct reason for A.
Both A and R are true and R is incorrect reason for A.
