Question

ABCD is a rectangle. AB + BC = 7 cm
AC+ BD = 10cm
Then find AB​

Answer 1

Answer:

ANS :

....................... 6CM .......................

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

GIVEN :

=> ABCD IS A RECTANGLE .

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

LENGTHS :

=> AB

=> CD

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

BREADTHS :

=> AD

=> BC

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

DIAGONALS :

=> AC

=> BD

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

GIVEN INFO :

=> AB + BC = 14 CM

=> LENGTH ( L ) + BREADTH ( B ) = 14 CM

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

=> AC + BD = 20 CM

=> DIAGONAL + DIAGONAL = 20 CM

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

=> BUT DIAGONALS OF RECTANGLE ARE CONGRUENT :

SO,

=> 2 * DIAGONAL = 20

=> 1 DIAGONAL = 20 / 2

=> DIAGONAL = 10CM

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

=> AS WE KNOW RECTANGLE HAS ITS ALL THE FOUR ANGLES MEASURING 90°

SO ,

=> IN THE ONE RIGHT ANGLED TRIANGLE :

=> L ^ 2 + B ^ 2 = DIAGONAL ^ 2

=> L ^ 2 + B ^ 2 = 10 * 10

=> L ^ 2 + B ^ 2 = 100

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

=> BY THE PYTHAGOREAN TRIPLET ,

=> WE COME TO KNOW THAT ,

=> L = 8 CM

=> B = 6CM

⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕

=> BC = BREADTH

SO,

=> BC = 6CM
