उत्तर
The sides of the triangle are 6 cm, 8 cm and 10 cm.
The longest side is 10 cm.
(10)2 = 100 ….(i)
Now, the sum of the squares of the other two sides will be,
(6)2 + (8)2 = 36 + 64 = 100 ….(ii)
(10)2 = (6)2 + (8)2 ….. from (i) and (ii)
By the converse of Pythagoras theorem:
The given sides form a right angled triangle.

Nazima is fly fishing in a stream. The tip of her fishing rod is 1.8 m above the surface of the water and the fly at the end of the string rests on the water 3.6 m away and 2.4 m from a point directly under the tip of the rod. Assuming that her string (from the tip of her rod to the fly) is taut, ho much string does she have out (see Figure)? If she pulls in the string at the rate of 5 cm per second, what will be the horizontal distance of the fly from her after 12 seconds?
