Detailed Solution

a,ar,ar2,ar3  are four terms in G.P

(a).(ar).(ar2).(ar3)=4

a4r6=4(1)

and also ar=1ar3

a2r4=1

a4r8=1(2)

(2)(1)a4r8a4r6=14

r2=14

r=±12

If r=12

From (2),a4(12)8=1

a4=28

a=4 , 4  also satisfy the equation a4=28

If a=4                     a=4

S=a1r                 S=a1r

=4112                      =4112

=8                            =8

If r=12  

If a=4                    a=4

S=a1r                  S=a1r

=41+12                      =41+12

=83                            =83
