Answer to Problem 14PSB
Theratiois
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
In triangle ABC,
SideAB = 13 ,
Side AC = 13 ,
Side BC = 10 .
In triangle PQR,
Side PR = 20,
Side PQ = 12,
Side QR = 16.
Formula used:
Pythagoras theorem states that “In a right angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides”.
In right
Area of triangle:
b = base of triangle
h = height of triangle
Calculation:
SideAD can be calculated by Pythagoras theorem.
In right angled triangle ADC , we get
The ratio is as follows:
