SEQUENCE
SEQUENCE
instrucTIONS :

1.Add the two consecutive triangular numbers.What kind

of figurate numbers do you get?
2.Multiply each triangular numbers by 8. Then add 1.
What kind of figurate numbers do you get?
3.Square any two numbers . Subtract the smaller square
number from the larger. What kind of number do you
get?
Number sequence

It is a list of numbers having a first number, second

number, third number and so on called the “terms” of the
sequence.
note::

-to represent nth or general term in a sequence.

Example:
• The numbers 1 to 10: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
8, 9, 10} 
• Our alphabet: {a, b, c, . . . x, y, z}
Finite sequence

Having finite number of sequence.

Example:

• N = (0, 1, 2, 3, ...)
• S = (1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, ..., 1/2 n , ...).
inFinite sequence

Infinite number of terms.

Find the next two terms of each sequence

• 5, 8, 11, 14, ...

Find the next two terms of each sequence

• 15, 7, -1, -9, ...

Find the next two terms of each sequence

• 7, 14, 28, 56, ...

Find the next two terms of each sequence

• 24, -12, 6, -3, ...
