Chapter 5  Progressions
5.1 Aritmetic Progressions

5.1.1 Identify a sequence as an arithmetic progression and provide justification.

5.1.2 Derive the formula of the nth term, Tn, of arithmetic progressions, and hence use the
formula in various situations.

hence use the formula in various situations.

5.1.4 Solve problems involving arithmetic progressions.

5.2 Geometric Progressions

5.2.1 Identify a sequence as a geometric progression and provide justification.

5.2.2 Derive the formula of the nth term, Tn, of geometric progressions, and hence use
the formula in various situations.
