Step-by-step explanation:
Given:-
In ∆ PQR , PQ = 6 cm, QR = 6cm
To find:-
Find the third side of the given triangle?
Solution:-
Given triangle is PQR
Right angle is at angle Q
angle Q = 90°
∆PQR is a right angled triangle
PQ = 6 cm
QR = 6 cm
We know that
Pythagoras theorem: In a right angled triangle The sum of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
=>PR^2 = PQ^2+QR^2
=>PR^2 = 6^2+6^2
=>PR^2 = 36+36
=>PR^2 = 72
=>PR = √72
=>PR = √(36×2)
=>PR = 6√2 cm
we know that √2=1.414
PR = 6×1.414 cm
PR = 8.484 cm
PR = 8.5 cm (approximately)
(correct it to one decimal)
Answer:-
The third side of the given triangle is 6√2 cm or 8.5cm
Used formula:-
Pythagoras theorem:
In a right angled triangle The sum of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
