That our free, printable arithmetic sequence worksheets cover everything from basic to advanced makes them an across-the-board resource, requiring children to do little extra practice. Students will work their way through finite and infinite arithmetic sequences determining the first term, common difference, nth term or general term, number of terms, a specific term, the next three consecutive terms, and a lot more. They also key into the explicit and recursive formulas and get the hang of devising them for a sequence of rational and irrational numbers.

These pdf arithmetic sequences worksheets are appropriate for 8th grade and high school students.

Identifying Arithmetic Sequences | Worksheet #1

How do you identify if a sequence is arithmetic or not? Well, stick to this one rule to a tee - there's a constant difference between the two consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence - and you are all set to take up this printable task.

Identifying Arithmetic Sequences 1

Identifying Arithmetic Sequences | Worksheet #2

When the sequences involve square roots, decimals, and fractions, it might take some time to check whether the successive terms have equal differences. But, stay determined and prove your champion-mathematician credentials!

Explicit Formulas for Arithmetic Sequences

An explicit formula defines the general term or the nth term of the sequence. You can derive all the terms of the sequence by plugging-in the positions 1, 2, 3, ... for n. Jump-start the real arithmetic sequences prepping here.

Missing Terms of an Arithmetic Sequence

If −9, −28, −47,... is an arithmetic sequence, what will be its three subsequent terms? Determine the common difference and utilize it to arrive at the next three terms, which in this case are −66, −85, and −104.

Recursive Formulas for Arithmetic Sequences

Wonder what differentiates between the explicit and recursive formulas? Well, recursion means repetition in general. Here, you use the earlier terms to figure out the successive terms of the sequence. Tap into practice!
