Prove that sum of the angles in a triangle is 90 degree.
Answers
Answer:
The sum of interior angles of a triangle is 90 degree
Correct answer:
The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180. A right triangle has one angle of 90. Thus, the sum of the other two angles will be 90.
Answer:
To prove: ∠B = 90°
Step-by-step explanation:
Theorem : In a triangle, if square of one side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, then the angle opposite the first side is a right angle.
Proof: We have a Δ ABC in which AC2 = AB2 + BC2
We need to prove that ∠B = 90°
In order to prove the above, we construct a triangle PQR which is right-angled at Q such that:
PQ = AB and QR = BC
From triangle PQR, we have
PR2 = PQ2+ QR2 (According to Pythagoras theorem,as ∠Q = 90°)
PR2 = AB2 + BC2 (By construction) …… (1)
We know that;
AC2 = AB2+BC (Which is given) …………(2)
So, AC = PR [From equation (1) and (2)]
Now, in Δ ABC and Δ PQR,
AB = PQ (By construction)
BC = QR (By construction)
AC = PR [Proved above]
So, Δ ABC ≅ Δ PQR (By SSS congruence)
Therefore, ∠B = ∠Q (CPCT)
But, ∠Q = 90° (By construction)
So, ∠B = 90°
Hence the theorem is proved.
