Question

In triangle abc angle equals to 90 degree ab equals to 5 cm BC equals to 13 cm and AD perpendicular BC then the length of Ab is​

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ΔABC, ∠A=90°, AB=3cm, BC=5cm

AD is perpendicular to BC.

We have to find the length of AD

In ΔADB and ΔCAB

∠ADB=∠BAC   (each 90° given)

∠B=∠B              (common)

By AA similarity rule, ΔADB~ΔCAB

Hence, corresponding sides are in proportion

By Pythagoras theorem in ΔADB
