Proof: Construct another triangle, △EGF, such as AC = EG = b and BC = FG = a.
Converse of Pythagorean Theorem Proof
In △EGF, by Pythagoras Theorem:
EF2 = EG2 + FG2 = b2 + a2 …………(1)
In △ABC, by Pythagoras Theorem:
AB2 = AC2 + BC2 = b2 + a2 …………(2)
From equation (1) and (2), we have;
EF2 = AB2
EF = AB
⇒ △ ACB ≅ △EGF (By SSS postulate)
⇒ ∠G is right angle
Thus, △EGF is a right triangle.
Hence, we can say that the converse of Pythagorean theorem also holds.
Hence Proved.
Answer:
Statement:-In a triangle, if the square of one side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides then the angle opposite to the first side is a right angle.
Given:-
In Triangle ABC,
AC² = AB² + BC²
Construction: -
Construct a triangle PQR such that AB = PQ and BC = QR and Angle Q = 90°
Proof: -
In Triangle PQR,
Angle Q = 90° (By construction)
PR² = PQ² + QR² (By Pythagoras Theorem)
PR² = AB² + BC² (Using PQ = AB and QR = BC by Construction)----Equation 1
Also,
AC² = AB² + BC² (Given)--------- Equation 2
Equating Equation 1 and Equation 2,
PR² = AC²
PR = AC
Now, In Triangle ABC and Triangle PQR,
AB = PQ (By Construction)
BC = QR (By Construction)
AC = PR (Proved Above)
Triangle ABC is congruent to triangle PQR by SSS
Angle B = Angle Q = 90°
This shows that Triangle ABC is right angled.
Hence Proved
