Question

In ΔABC, ∠B = 90°, BD ⊥ AC. If AB = 8 cm and BD = 4 cm then what is the length of

CD ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

In the given figure angle ABC 90 and BD is perpendicular to AC

Given, BD = 8 cm, AD = 4 cm, ∠ABC = 90° and BD⊥AC. we know that ,If a perpendicular is drawn from the vertex containing a right angle of a right triangle to the hypotenuse then the triangle on each side of the perpendicular are similar to each other and to the whole triangle.
