You have to select one of the codes (a ), (b ), (c ), (d ) given below

a) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

b) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true but Reason (R) is not the correct explanation of Assertion (A).

c) Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false.

d) Assertion (A) is false but Reason (R) is true.

Reason: Sum of n natural number is n(n + 1)/2
Ans a

---

Question 2

Assertion: Sum of fist n terms in an A.P. is given by the formula: 

S_n = 2n × [2a + (n−1)d]

Reason: Sum of first 15 terms of 2 + 5 + 8 ——- is 345.
Ans a

---

Question 3

Assertion: The constant difference between any two terms of an AP is commonly known as common difference

Reason: the common difference of 2, 4, 6, 8 this A.P. sequence is 2
Ans a

---

Question 4

Assertion: Arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in which the difference of any two adjacent terms is constant.

Reason: 4, 8, 12, 16 this sequence is an A.P.
Ans a

Question 5

Assertion: If numbers a, b, c are in A.P then b – a = c - b

Reason: given three numbers are in AP, then the common difference will be same.

Ans a
Question 6
Assertion: The sum of series with the nth term tn = (9 - 5n) is 220 when no. of terms n = 6

Reason : Sum of first n terms in an A.P. is given by the formula: 

S_n = 2n × [2a + (n−1)d]
Ans a
Question 7

Assertion: An AP containing a finite number of terms is called finite AP

Reason: 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21 is an finite AP
Ans a

---

Question 8

Assertion: the value of n, if a = 10, d = 5, a_n = 95.

Reason: the formula of general term an is a_n = a + (n - 1)d.
Ans a

---

Question 9

Assertion: Arithmetic between 5 and 90 is 47.5

Reason: Arithmetic between two given number a, b is (a + b)/2
Ans a

---

Question 10

Assertion: The 11th term of an AP is 7, 9, 11, 13_________is 67

Reason: if S_n is the sum of first n terms of an AP then its nth term an is given by 

a_n = S_n + S_{n - 1}
Ans a

Question 11
Assertion : If Sn is the sum of the first n terms of an A.P., then its nth term an is given by a_n = S_n – S_n–1.

Reason : The 10th term of the A.P. 5, 8, 11, 14, ................... is 35.
Answer: (c)

---

Question 12

Assertion: the value of n, if a = 10, d = 5, a_n = 95.

Reason: the formula of general term an is a_n = a + (n - 1)d.
Ans: (a)

Question 13
Assertion: The 11th term of an AP is 7, 9, 11, 13_________is 67

Reason: if S_n is the sum of first n terms of an AP then its nth term an is given by
an = S_n + S_n–1
Ans: (d)

Question 14

Assertion: The sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic progression is given by the formula S_n = n/2 [2a + (n - 1)d], where 'a' is the first term and 'd' is the common difference.

Reason: The formula for the sum of an arithmetic progression is derived from the formula for the nth term, which is given by a_n = a + (n - 1)d.
Ans: a

Question 15

Assertion: In an arithmetic progression, if the first term 'a' is 5 and the common difference 'd' is 3, then the nth term an is given by a_n = 5n + 3.

Reason: The nth term of an arithmetic progression is found by adding the common difference 'd' to the first term 'a' for 'n' times.
Ans d
