S O L U T I O N :
A right triangle has a hypotenuse of length p cm & one side of length q cm. If p - q = 1.
Firstly, attachment a figure of right angled Δ a/c to the given question.
We have,
→ p - q = 1..............(1)
Let the third side of a triangle be r
⇒ (Hypotenuse)² = (Base)² + (Perpendicular)²
⇒ (p)² = (q)² + (r)²
⇒ (r)² = (p)² - (q)²
⇒ (r)² = (p+q) (p-q) [ ∴formula a² - b² ]
⇒ (r)² = (p+q) × (1) [∴from (1)]
⇒ (r)² = p + q
⇒ r = √p + q
Thus,
The third side of the triangle will be √p + q cm .
