  1. Solution:

    Let, the 1st term of two AP’s be a1 and a2 ;

    The c.d of the AP’s be ” d ” .

    For 1st A.P

    an = a+(n−1)d

    Therefore,

    a100 = a1+(100−1)d

    a1 + 99d

    a1000 = a1+(1000−1)d

    a1000 = a1+999d

    For 2nd A.P ,

    an = a+(n−1)d

    Therefore,

    a100 = a2 + (100−1)d

    a2 + 99d

    a1000 = a2 + (1000−1)d

    a2 + 999d

    It is given that the difference between 100th term of the two APs = 100

    i,e (a1 + 99d) − (a2 + 99d) = 100

    a1a2 = 100         ………………………….. (i)

    Diff. b/w 1000th terms of the two APs

    (a1+999d) − (a2+999d) = a1a2

    From eq. (i),

    This diff.  , a1a= 100

    The difference between 1000th terms of the 2 A.P’s will be 100.
