Ask the students to define the terms

Finite sequence and Infinite sequence?
Finite Sequence – a function whose domain is the finite
set {1, 2, 3, …, n}
- a sequence that has a last term.

Infinite Sequence – a function whose domain is the

infinite set {1 , 2 ,3 , … }
- Having no limits

- a sequence that does not have a last

term.

B. Establishing a
purpose for the lesson
C. Presenting examples
of the new lesson
Can define finite sequence and infinite sequence easily.
Based on the definition given identify the given
sequence if it is a finite geometric sequence or an
infinite geometric sequence.

Expected answers:

1. 2, 4, 8, 16 Finite Geometric Sequence

2. 2, 4, 8, 16,… Infinite Geometric Sequence
3. -4, 12, -36,… Infinite Geometric Sequence
4. -4, 12, -36, 108, -324 Finite Geometric Sequence
D. Discussing new
concepts and The teacher discusses the definition and emphasize
practicing new that examples 1&4 are finite geometric sequence
skills #1 because it has a last term while examples 2&3 are
infinite geometric sequence because the sequence
does not have a last term.

E. Discussing new
concepts and INFINITE GEOMETRIC SERIES
practicing new Infinite geometric series is the indicated sum of the
skills #2 terms of an infinite geometric sequence. The series 2 + 4
+ 8 + 16 + … is an example of infinite geometric series.
If the first term of a geometric sequence is a 1and the
common ratio is r, then the infinite geometric series S is S
= a 1+¿a r +a r ² +¿¿…

geometric sequence because the last
term or the end term is on the 5th day
H. Making Guide Questions for Generalization:
Generalizations and
abstractions about Let the students answer the following questions
the lesson  What is a finite geometric sequence? Infinite
geometric sequence?

Expected answer:

Finite Sequence – a function

whose domain is the finite set {1,
2, 3, …, n}
- a sequence that has a last
term.

Infinite Sequence – a function

whose domain is the infinite set
{1 , 2 ,3 , … }
- Having no limits

- a sequence that does not have

a last term.

 How can you differentiate finite geometric sequence

from infinite geometric sequence?

Expected answer:

Finite geometric sequence

has a last term while

DISCUSSIONS:

REMEMBER:

The formula for the sum of the first n terms in a geometric

sequence is

Sn =
a1−a1 r
n
(
Sn = a1 1−r
n
)
or
1−r 1−r

where Sn = the sum

a 1 = the first term
r = the common ratio, r ≠ 1.

REMEMBER:

The sum S of the terms of an infinite geometric sequence is

a1
S= ,
1−r

Where a 1, is the first term and r is the common ratio, and | r | < 1.
