Question

Ellllooo!! Prove Converse of Pythagoras theorem!!!!

Answer 1

$\huge\underline\mathfrak\pink{Solution}$

Given : AC² = AB² + BC²

To prove : ABC is a right angled triangle.

Construction : Draw a right angled triangle PQR such that, angle Q = 90°, AB = PQ, BC = QR.

Proof : In triangle PQR,

Angle Q = 90° ( by construction )

Also,

PR² = PQ² + QR² ( By using Pythagoras theorem )...(1)

But,

AC² = AB² + BC² ( Given )

Also, AB = PQ and BC = QR ( by construction )

Therefore,

AC² = PQ²+ QR²....(2)

From eq (1) and (2),

PR² = AC²

So, PR = AC

Now,

In ∆ABC and ∆PQR,

AB = PQ ( By construction )

BC = QR ( By construction )

AC = PR ( Proved above )

Hence,

∆ABC is congruent to ∆PQR by SSS criteria.

Therefore, Angle B = Angle Q ( By CPCT )

But,

Angle Q = 90° ( By construction )

Therefore,

Angle B = 90°

Thus, ABC is a right angled triangle with Angle B = 90°
