Geometric Series Name of teacher :Dr. Mazin R Khalil Advanced Mathematics2 ME212 Semester 4 Week 3 Date: 13/2/2024
Objectives To teach students the following opinions through out the lecture: 1. Geometric series 2. Methods of testing series
Geometric series A geometric series is the sum of finite or infinite terms of a geometric sequence. For the geometric sequence a, ar, ar2, ..., arn-1, ..., the corresponding geometric series is a + ar + ar2+ ..., arn-1+ .... We know that "series" means "sum". In particular, the geometric series means the sum of the terms that have a common ratio between every adjacent two of them. There can be two types of geometric series: finite and infinite. Here are some examples of geometric series. 1/2 + 1/4 + .... + 1/8192 is a finite geometric series where the first tern, a = 1/2 and the common ratio, r = 1/2 -4 + 2 - 1 + 1/2 - 1/4 + ... is an infinite geometric series where the first term, a = -4 and the common ratio r = -1/2
