Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN
Right triangle DFH with hypotenus DF having points E, G, K on DF, FH, HD such that HE⊥DF, EG⊥FH, EK⊥DH
TO PROVE
1. EG² = FG x EK
2. EK² = DK x EG
ʀᴇʟᴀᴛɪᴏɴ ʙᴇᴛᴡᴇᴇɴ ᴀɴɢʟᴇs
⇒ Since HE⊥DF, ΔEFH is right triangle.
So, ∠F + ∠FHE = 90
Also ∠H = 90
So, ∠FHE + ∠EHK = 90
Substracting the two equation, we get
∠F = ∠EHK ---------------(1)
Similarly
∠D = ∠EHG----------------(2)
⇒ Also
∠FEG + ∠GEH = 90
∠GEH + ∠HEK = 90
Substracting the two equations we get
∠FEG = ∠HEK--------------(3)
Similarly
∠DEK = ∠HEG--------------(4)
PROOF
1. In Δs EFG and EHK
∠F = ∠EHK (by equn (1))
∠FEG = ∠HEK( by equn (3))
∠FGE = ∠HKE( = 90)
Hence By AAA similarity
ΔEFG ~ ΔEHK
So FG/HK = EG/EK
or FG/EG = EG/EK (since EG = HK)
or EG² = FG x EK
2. In Δs EKD and EGH
∠D = ∠EHG(by equn(2))
∠DEK = ∠HEG( by equn 4
∠EKD = ∠EGH( = 90)
Hence By AAA similarity
ΔEKD ~ ΔEGH
So EG/EK = GH/DK
or EG/EK = EK/DK(since EK = GH)
or EK² = DK x EG
Hence Proved.
