The series a,H1,H2,H3.....Hn,b is in harmonic progression.
⇒1a,1H1,1H2,1H3.............1Hn,1b are in A.P.
Total terms in A.P =n+2
General term of A.P. is at=a+(t−1)d
⇒an+2=a+(n+2−1)d⇒an+2=a+(n+1)d⇒1b=1a+(n+1)d⇒d=(a−b)ab(n+1)
Now term corresponding to mth H.M is (m+1)th term in A.P
⇒am+1=a+(m+1−1)d⇒am+1=a+md⇒am+1=1a+m((a−b)ab(n+1))⇒1Hm=b(n+1)+m(a−b)ab(n+1)⇒Hm=ab(n+1)b(n+1)+m(a−b)
