उत्तर

We have Pythagoras theorem which states that in a right-angled triangle, the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the remaining two sides.

In Δ AOC,

AC2 = AO2 + CO2

(3)2 = AO2 + x2

9 = AO2 + x2

9 - x2 = AO2    ...(i)

In Δ AOB,

AB2 = AO2 + BO2

(8)2 = AO2 + (6 + x)2

64 = AO2 + (6 + x)2

64 - (6 + x)2 = AO2   ...(ii)

From equation (i) and (ii)

9 - x2 = 64 - (6 + x)2

9 - x2 = 64 - (36 + x2 + 12x)   ...[(a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2]

9 - x2 = 64 - 36 - x2 - 12x

9 = 28 - 12x

12x = 28 - 9

x = `19/12`

x = `1  7/12`
