Let an be the nth term of an AP.
ap = a + (p-1)d ....(1)
aq = a + (q-1)d ....(2)
ar = a + (r-1)d ....(3)
as = a + (s-1)d ....(3)
We can do (1) - (2) to get (p-q), and similarly can obtain expression for other terms.
(p-q) = (ap - aq)/d = ap(1 - R)/d .... since pth, qth, rth and sth terms are also in GP and R is the common ratio.
(q-r) = (aq - ar )/d = aq (1 - R )/d
(r-s) = (ar - as )/d = ar(1 - R )/d
Now,
(p-q)/(q-r) = ap/aq = R
(q-r)/(r-s) = aq /ar = R.
Hence proved.
