#### Abstract

The authors aim mainly at giving fifteen three-term contiguous relations for the basic hypergeometric series $series\;_2{\phi}_1$ corresponding to Gauss's contiguous relations for the hypergeometric series $series\;_2F_1$ given in Rainville([6], p.71). They also apply them to obtain two summation formulas closely related to a known q-analogue of Kummer's theorem.
