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.

Which of the following can be the sides of a right triangle?
2.5 cm, 6.5 cm, 6 cm
In the case of right-angled triangles, identify the right angles.
In ΔABC, ∠B = 90°. Find the sides of the triangle if:
- AB = (x − 3) cm, BC = (x + 4) cm and AC = (x + 6) cm
- AB = x cm, BC = (4x + 4) cm and AC = (4x + 5) cm
In the following figure, AD is perpendicular to BC and D divides BC in the ratio 1: 3.
Prove that : 2AC2 = 2AB2 + BC2
In the given figure, AD = 13 cm, BC = 12 cm, AB = 3 cm and angle ACD = angle ABC = 90°. Find the length of DC.

In the figure below, find the value of 'x'.
