Answer

(i) Geometric mean between 49 and 94\dfrac{4}{9} \text{ and } \dfrac{9}{4}

G=49×94=1=1.G = \sqrt{\dfrac{4}{9} \times \dfrac{9}{4}} \\[1em] = \sqrt{1} \\[1em] = 1.

Hence, geometric mean = 1.

(ii) Geometric mean between 14 and 732\dfrac{7}{32}

G=14×732=4916=74.G = \sqrt{14 \times \dfrac{7}{32}} \\[1em] = \sqrt{\dfrac{49}{16}} \\[1em] = \dfrac{7}{4}.

Hence, geometric mean = 74=134\dfrac{7}{4} = 1\dfrac{3}{4}.

(iii) Geometric mean between 2a and 8a3

G=2a×8a3=16a4=4a2.G = \sqrt{2a \times 8a^3} \\[1em] = \sqrt{16a^4} \\[1em] = 4a^2.

Hence, geometric mean = 4a2
