nth term of an geometric sequence Sum of the first n terms of a finite geometic sequence Sum of the terms of an infinite geometric sequence Has a common ratio (r) between terms r = 5 ex: 2, 10, 50, . . . 625, 250, 100, 40, 16 . . . common ratio nth term 1st term Geometric Sequence This formula only applies if r is a fraction. (between -1 and 1)
