Question

right angle triangle pqr is right angled at angle peak if you are is equal to 25 cm long and PQ is equal to 24 cm long find CR
​

Answer 1

Answer:

7..................

Answer 2

PR+QR=25 (given) and PR=25−QR

5

2

+QR

2

=PR

2

(Pythagorean theorem)

Then substitute PR to get this equation = 5

2

+QR

2

=(25−QR)

2

Solve for QR

5

2

+QR

2

=625−50QR+QR

2

(QR

2

cancels out)

5

2

=625−50QR

−600=−50QR

QR=12

Solve for PR using original equation

PR=13

Now draw the triangle on your paper for help solving the next step

sin=

hyp

opp

⇒sin(P)=

13

adj

⇒cos(P)=
