Proof of Pythagorean Theorem:-

Given: A ∆ XYZ in which ∠XYZ = 90°.

To prove: XZ2 = XY2 + YZ2

Construction: Draw YO ⊥ XZ

Proof: In ∆XOY and ∆XYZ, we have,

∠X = ∠X → common

∠XOY = ∠XYZ → each equal to 90°

Therefore, ∆ XOY ~ ∆ XYZ → by AA-similarity

⇒ XO/XY = XY/XZ

⇒ XO × XZ = XY2 ----------------- (i)

In ∆YOZ and ∆XYZ, we have,

∠Z = ∠Z → common

∠YOZ = ∠XYZ → each equal to 90°

Therefore, ∆ YOZ ~ ∆ XYZ → by AA-similarity

⇒ OZ/YZ = YZ/XZ

⇒ OZ × XZ = YZ2 ----------------- (ii)

From (i) and (ii) we get,

XO × XZ + OZ × XZ = (XY2 + YZ2)

⇒ (XO + OZ) × XZ = (XY2 + YZ2)

⇒ XZ × XZ = (XY2 + YZ2)

⇒ XZ 2 = (XY2 + YZ2).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

pythogorean theorem is provable

1/2{a^2+2ab+b^2}=ab+1/2c^2

a^2+2ab+b^2=2ab+c^2

a^2+b^2=c^2

hence proved>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.............
