उत्तर

We have ∠AED = 90°
∴ ∠ADE < 90° and ∠ADC > 90°
i.e. ∠ADE is acute and ∠ADC is obtuse.
From (iii), we have
AB2 + AC2 = `2"AD"^2 + (1)/(2)"BC"^2`
⇒ AB2 + AC2 = `2"AD"^2 + (1)/(2)(2 xx "CD")^2`
⇒ AB2 + AC2 = `2"AD"^2 + (1)/(2) xx 4"CD"^2`
⇒ AB2 + AC2 = 2AD2 + 2CD2
⇒ AB2 + AC2 = 2(AD2 + CD2).

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)`
