Step-by-step explanation:
Given: In △ABC,m∠B=90
o
To prove: AC
2
=AB
2
+BC
2
Construction: Draw BD⊥AC
Proof: We know that: If a perpendicular is drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a right angled triangle to the hypotenuse, then triangles on both sides of the perpendicular are similar to the whole triangle and to each other.
△ADB∼△ABC
So,
AB
AD
=
AC
AB
(Sides are proportional)
or AD.AC=AB
2
....(1)
Also, △BDC∼△ABC
So,
BC
CD
=
AC
BC
CD.AC=BC
2
...(2)
Or CD.AC=BC
2
....(2)
Adding (1) and (2)
AD.AC+CD.AC=AB
2
+BC
2
AC(AD+CD)=AB
2
+BC
2
AC.AC=AB
2
+BC
2
AC
2
=AB
2
+BC
