उत्तर
Take M to be the point on CD such that AB = DM.
So DM = 7cm and MC = 10 cm
Join points B and M to form the line segment BM.
So BM || AD also BM = AD.
In right-angled ΔBAD,
BD2 = AD2 + BA2
(25)2 = AD2 + (7)2
AD2 = (25)2 - (7)2
AD2 = 576
AD = 24
In right-angled ΔCMB,
CB2 = CM2 + MB2
CB2 = (10)2 + (24)2 ...[ MB = AD ]
CB2 = 100 + 576
CB2 = 676
CB = 26 cm
