उत्तर
Take the sides of a right angled triangle ∆ABC as
a = 7 inches
b = 25 inches
c = ?
By Pythagoras theorem,
b2 = a2 + c2
252 = 72 + c2
⇒ c2 = 252 – 72
= 625 – 49 = 576
∴ c2 = 242
⇒ c = 24 inches
∴ Width of TV cabinet is 20 inches which is lesser than the width of the screen ie. 24 inches.
∴ The TV will not fit into the cabinet.

Activity: From given figure, In ∆ABC, ∠ABC = 90°, ∠ACB = 30°
∴ ∠BAC = `square`
∴ ∆ABC is 30° – 60° – 90° triangle.
∴ In ∆ABC by property of 30° – 60° – 90° triangle.
∴ AB = `1/2` AC and `square` = `sqrt(3)/2` AC
∴ `square` = `1/2 xx 12` and BC = `sqrt(3)/2 xx 12`
∴ `square` = 6 and BC = `6sqrt(3)`
