उत्तर
Given:
∆ ABC
∠ADB = 90° and AC = AB = 26 cm
AD = 24 cm
To find : Length of BC In right angled ∆ ADC
AB = 26 cm, AD = 24 cm
According to Pythagoras Theorem,
(AC)2 = (AD)2 + (DC)2
(26)2 = (24)2 + (DC)2
676 = 576 + (DC)2
⇒ (DC)2 = 100
⇒ DC =`sqrt100` = 10 cm
∴ Length of BC = BD + DC
= 10 + 10 = 20 cm
