In triangle ABC, ∠C=90°. Let BC= a, CA= b, AB= c and let 'p' be the length of the perpendicular from 'C' on AB, prove that:

1. cp = ab

2. `1/p^2=1/a^2+1/b^2`

In the given figure, ∠QPR = 90°, seg PM ⊥ seg QR and Q–M–R, PM = 10, QM = 8, find QR.

For finding AB and BC with the help of information given in the figure, complete following activity.

AB = BC ..........

∴ ∠BAC =

∴ AB = BC = × AC

In the given figure, M is the midpoint of QR. ∠PRQ = 90°. Prove that, PQ² = 4PM² – 3PR².

Walls of two buildings on either side of a street are parallel to each other. A ladder 5.8 m long is placed on the street such that its top just reaches the window of a building at the height of 4 m. On turning the ladder over to the other side of the street, its top touches the window of the other building at a height 4.2 m. Find the width of the street.
