उत्तर

Take the sides of a right angled triangle ∆ABC as
a = 7 inches
b = 25 inches
c = ?
By Pythagoras theorem,
b2 = a2 + c2
252 = 72 + c2
⇒ c2 = 252 – 72
= 625 – 49 = 576
∴ c2 = 242
⇒ c = 24 inches
∴ Width of TV cabinet is 20 inches which is lesser than the width of the screen ie. 24 inches.
∴ The TV will not fit into the cabinet.
