ANSWER

[tex] \pm185[/tex]

EXPLANATION

Let the missing term be x.

Then the sequence becomes,

[tex]37,x,925[/tex]

[tex] \frac{x}{37} = \frac{925}{x} [/tex]

Cross multiply to get,

[tex] {x}^{2} = 34225[/tex]

Take square root of both sides,

[tex]x = \pm \sqrt{34225} [/tex]

[tex]x = \pm185[/tex]
