Question

In ∆ ABC angle B = 90° BD perpendicular to AC. If AC = 10cm and AB=6cm, find AD.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given:

∠ABC=90  

o

,BD⊥AC,

BD=8 and AD=4 as in diagram.

Let ∠ACB=x

⇒∠CBD=90−x

⇒∠ABD=x

⇒∠BAD=90−x

⇒ΔABC,ΔADB and ΔBDC are similar  

CD /BD= AD/DB

​  

CD/8=8/4

CD=8×8/4

=16cm

=16cm.
