Question
In ∆ABC, AB = `6sqrt(3)` cm, AC = 12 cm, and BC = 6 cm then m∠A = ?
Options
30°
60°
90°
45°

Solution
30°
Explanation:

We know that, `6 = 1/2(12)`
And `6sqrt(3) = sqrt(3)/2 (12)`
∴ `BC = 1/2 AC` and `AB = sqrt(3)/2 AC`
∴ ∠A = 30° ...(Converse of 30° - 60° - 90° theorem)

In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = 12 then complete the activity to show that whether the given triangle is right angled triangle or not.
*(l, m, n are opposite sides of ∠L, ∠M, ∠N respectively)
Activity: In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = `square`
∴ l2 = `square`, m2 = 169, n2 = 144.
∴ l2 + n2 = 25 + 144 = `square`
∴ `square` + l2 = m2
∴ By Converse of Pythagoras theorem, ∆LMN is right angled triangle.
