Formula [Pythagoras Theorem]
A² = B² + C²
(hypotenuse)² = (side)² + (side)²
Example:
In the right-angled ∆PQR, ∠ P = 90°.If l(PQ) = 24 cm and l(PR) = 10 cm, find the length of segment QR.
Answer
In the right angled triangle PQR, ∠P = 90∘. Hence, side QR is the hypotenuse.
According to Pythagoras' theorem,
A² = B² + C²
(QR)² = (PQ)² + (PR)²
⇒(QR)² = (24)² + (10)²
⇒(QR)² = 576 + 100
⇒(QR)² = 676
⇒(QR)² = (26)²
⇒(QR) = 26
∴ Length of seg QR = 26 cm
hope this helps ya ^_^
