The Geometric Mean between any two positive numbers a and b is the square root of their product.

If we are looking for positive geometric mean

If we are looking for negative geometric mean

find the other extreme of this: ratical 24 is the geometric mean between a and b. Find b if a=2
Geometric Mean =

Checking:
Geometric Mean = , GM = 24, a = 2, b = 288

24=24 ---> True
