4AD² = 3BC² if D is mid point of BC in an equilateral triangle abc
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
ABC is an equilateral Triangle
D is mid point of BC
To be proved
4AD² = 3BC²
Comparing ΔABD & ΔACD
AD = AD Common
AB = AC ( all sides of equilateral triangle are equal)
BD = CD = BC/2 as mid point of BC
=> ΔABD ≅ ΔACD
=> ∠ADB = ∠ACB
∠ADB + ∠ACB = 180° ( straight line)
=> ∠ADB = ∠ACB = 90°
=> in Δ ADB
AB² = AD² + BD²
=> AD² = AB² - BD²
=> AD² = BC² - (BC/2)²
=>AD² = BC² - BC²/4
=> 4AD² = 4BC² - BC²
=> 4AD² = 3BC²
