Solution
In the triplet (24, 70, 74),
242 = 576, 702 = 4900, 742 = 5476 and 576 + 4900 = 5476
The square of the largest number is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two numbers.
∴ (24, 70, 74) is a pythagorean triplet.

From given figure, In ∆ABC, If AC = 12 cm, then AB = ?
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)`
