Question

The vertices of square DEFG are on the sides of triangle ABC angle A=90 then prove that DE square=BD×EC

Answer 1

Given: ABC is a triangle in which ∠BAC = 90° and DEFG is a square.

To prove: DE2 = BD x EC.


Proof: In △AGF and △DBG,

∠AGF = ∠GBD (corresponding angles)

∠GAF = ∠BDG (each = 90‘)

∴△AGF ~ △DBG .....(i)

Similarly, △AFG ~ △ECF (AA Similarity).....(ii)

From (i) and (ii), △DBG ~ △ECF.

BD/EF - BG/FC - DG/EC


BD/EF - DG/EC

EF × DG = BD × EC......(iii)

Also DEFG is a square

⇒ DE = EF = FG = DG .....(iv)

From (iii) and (iv),

DE2 = BD × EC. _____________proved
