Q. If the terms of a harmonic progression are 3, 6, and x, what is the value of x?
Show solution
Solution
The reciprocals of the terms are 1/3, 1/6, and 1/x. Since they form an arithmetic progression, we can set up the equation: 1/6 - 1/3 = 1/x - 1/6, solving gives x = 12.
Correct Answer: B — 12

Q. If the terms of a harmonic progression are 4, 2, and x, what is the value of x?
Show solution
Solution
The reciprocals are 1/4, 1/2, and 1/x. The common difference is 1/2 - 1/4 = 1/4, so 1/x = 1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4, thus x = 4/3.

Q. If two angles are complementary and one angle is 10 degrees more than the other, what are the measures of the two angles?
A.
40 and 50 degrees
B.
45 and 45 degrees
C.
30 and 60 degrees
D.
