उत्तर

16

Let ABCD be the given rectangle.

AC = 20 units and BC = 12 units

In ∆ABC,

∠B = 90°

∴ AC2 = AB2 + BC2      ...[Pythagoras theorem]

∴ 202 = AB2 + 122

∴ 400 = AB2 + 144

∴ AB2 = 256

∴ AB = 16 units

In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = 12 then complete the activity to show that whether the given triangle is right angled triangle or not.
*(l, m, n are opposite sides of ∠L, ∠M, ∠N respectively)

Activity: In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = `square`

∴ l2 = `square`, m2 = 169, n2 = 144.

∴ l2 + n2 = 25 + 144 = `square`

∴ `square` + l2 = m2

∴By Converse of Pythagoras theorem, ∆LMN is right angled triangle.
