Lesson 2 - Geometric Sequence and Series

This document contains a mathematics prayer, house rules for an online class, and a lesson on geometric sequences and series. The lesson defines geometric sequences as sequences where each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a fixed ratio. It provides examples of calculating the nth term and common ratio of geometric sequences. The lesson also discusses geometric means and inserting terms into geometric sequences.

Mathematics Prayer

Dear God,
May we through your blessings, add purity
to the world, subtract evil from our lives,
multiply the good news of your son, and
divide your gifts and share them with others.
Amen.

Lesson 2: Geometric Sequence and
Series
Objectives:
 Illustrates a geometric sequence (M10AL-Id-1)
 Explains the difference of geometric sequence from an
arithmetic sequence
 Calculates geometric means, nth term of a geometric
sequence and sum of the terms of a given finite or
infinite geometric sequence (M10AL-Id-2)
Essential Question:

Are there different kinds of


sequences and/or series? How do
they differ from one another?

Enrichment Activity
Geometric Sequence
It is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is
found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero
number called the common ratio.

2, 4, 6, 16, 32, 64, 128, …

Geometric Means
The geometric mean between any two positive terms of a geometric
sequence is given by the square root of their product.

Determine the positive geometric mean between 5 and 125.


Let us denote the geometric mean as x.
