Question

text  In a right angled Triangle  end text A B C comma less than B equals 90 to the power of ring operator text  and  end text D text  is the mid point of  end text B C text . Prove that  end text A C squared equals A D squared plus 3 C D

hintHint:

Hint :- use pythagoras theorem in triangle ABD and ABC
We get AC2 and AD2 subtract them and substitute BC = 2BD
In the equation to get the result.

The correct answer is: Hence proved


    Aim  :- Prove that A C squared equals A D squared plus 3 C D squared
    Explanation(proof ) :-
    Applying pythagoras theorem in triangle ABC,we get
    A C squared equals A B squared plus B C squared                —- Eq1
    Applying pythagoras theorem in triangle ABD ,we get
    A D squared equals A B squared plus B D squared                 — Eq2
    As AD is median , D is mid point then BC = 2BD

    Subtract Eq1 - Eq2
    We get ,A C squared minus A D squared equals A B squared plus B C squared minus open parentheses A B squared plus B D squared close parentheses
    A C squared minus A D squared equals B C squared minus B D squared text  substitute  end text BC equals 2 BD
    A C squared minus A D squared equals 4 B D squared minus B D squared
    As D is mid point BD = CD ,
    substitute BD = CD in the above equation
    A C squared minus A D squared equals 3 C D squared
    A C squared equals A D squared plus 3 C D squared
    Hence proved
