Question

10. In A ABC, B = 90° and BM is an altitude.
If AM = 2x^2 and CM = 8x^2, find BM, AB
and BC.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of measures of any two sides of the triangle is greater than the third side.

So, In triangle ABM

AB+BM>AM ..................... (1)

In triangle AMC

MC+AC>AM ...................... (2)

Add (1) and (2),

AB+(BM+MC)+AC>AM+AM 

AB+BC+AC>2AM
