the first and fourth terms of a proportion are called the means ?
A statement that two ratios are equal is called a proportion in math. An example of a proportion is 1/2 equals 2/4. In this proportion, if you cross multiply, you find that 4 x1 is equal to 2 x 2, which is a true statement or proportion.
Their circumferences are in direct proportion to their radii. Their areas are in direct proportion to the square of their radii.

the first and fourth terms of a proportion are called the means ?
The two outer terms of a proportion are known as extremes. These are the limits of a range of possibilities.

this is the outermost terms this is ''extremes''

Not come across that!
If A is to B as C is to D, A and D are the external terms or the extremes of the proportion, and B and C are the internal terms or the means.
The cross product is created.
7/35 = 5/x You have a proportion here. A proportion is a statement that two ratios are equal. The numbers that form a proportion are called the terms of proportion. There is a special relationship between the terms, called the cross products property. In the proportion that you have, 7 and x are called the extremes of the proportion, and 35 and 5 are called the means. In a proportion, the product of the means equals to the product of the extremes. So, 7/35 = 5/x (7)(x) = (35)(5) 7x = 175 7x/7 = 175/7 x = 25 Thus 7 is to 35 as 5 is to 25.
A trinomial is an expression that consist of three terms (first term, middle term, and last term). The middle term is the sum of the product of outer terms and inner terms of the binomial.
