જો ${a_1},{a_2},{a_3},........,{a_n},......$ એ સમગુણોતર શ્રેણીમાં હોય અને દરેક $i$ માટે ${a_i} > 0$ તો $\Delta = \left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\log {a_n}}&{\log {a_{n + 2}}}&{\log {a_{n + 4}}}\\{\log {a_{n + 6}}}&{\log {a_{n + 8}}}&{\log {a_{n + 10}}}\\{\log {a_{n + 12}}}&{\log {a_{n + 14}}}&{\log {a_{n + 16}}}\end{array}} \right|= . . . $

Solution
(c) If $r$ is the common ratio, then ${a_n} = {a_1}{r^{n – 1}}$ for all $n \ge 1$
$\Rightarrow \log {a_n} = \log {a_1} + (n – 1)\log r$
= $A + (n – 1)R$, where $\log {a_1} = A$ and $\log r = R$.
Thus in $\Delta $, on applying ${C_2} \to {C_2} – {C_1}$ and ${C_3} \to {C_3} – {C_2}$, we obtain ${C_2}$ and ${C_3}$ are identical.
Thus $\Delta = 0$.
