For the given numbers 3,12,27,48............\sqrt{3}, \sqrt{12}, \sqrt{27}, \sqrt{48}…………

Assertion (A):

To find whether these terms form an A.P. or not. Express each term as the product of a natural number and 3\sqrt{3 } i.e.,

3=1×3,12=23,27=33,48=43\sqrt{3} = 1 \times \sqrt{3}, \sqrt{12} = 2\sqrt{3}, \sqrt{27} = 3\sqrt{3}, \sqrt{48} = 4\sqrt{3}, etc.

Reason (R): Since, for the given number difference between the consecutive term is same. It is an A.P.

  1. A is true, R is false.

  2. A is false, R is true.

  3. Both A and R are true and R is correct reason for A.

  4. Both A and R are true and R is incorrect reason for A.

A.P.

Answer

Given, sequence

3,12,27,48............3,4×3,9×3,16×3............3,4×3,9×3,16×3............3,23,33,43............\Rightarrow \sqrt{3}, \sqrt{12}, \sqrt{27}, \sqrt{48}…………\\[1em] \Rightarrow \sqrt{3}, \sqrt{4 \times 3}, \sqrt{9 \times 3}, \sqrt{16 \times 3}…………\\[1em] \Rightarrow \sqrt{3}, \sqrt{4} \times \sqrt{3}, \sqrt{9} \times \sqrt{3}, \sqrt{16} \times \sqrt{3}…………\\[1em] \Rightarrow \sqrt{3}, 2\sqrt{3}, 3\sqrt{3}, 4\sqrt{3}…………

Difference between first term and second term = 233=32\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{3} = \sqrt{3}

Difference between second term and third term = 3323=33\sqrt{3} - 2\sqrt{3} = \sqrt{3}

So, the first term = 3\sqrt{3}, common difference = 3\sqrt{3}

So, assertion is true.

Since, for the given number difference between the consecutive term is same. Its an A.P., means reason is true and it clearly explain assertion.

Hence, option 3 is the correct option.
