प्रश्न
A man goes 10 m due east and then 24 m due north. Find the distance from the straight point.
उत्तर
Let O be the original position of the man.
From the figure, it is clear that B is the final position of the man.
ΔAOB is right-angled at A.
By Pythagoras theorem,
OB2 = OA2 + AB2
OB2 = (10m)2 + (24m)2
OB2 = 100m2 + 576m2
OB2 = 676m2
OB2 = (26m)2
OB = 26m
Thus, the man is at a distance of 26m from the straight point.

From given figure, In ∆ABC, If AC = 12 cm. then AB =?
Activity: From given figure, In ∆ABC, ∠ABC = 90°, ∠ACB = 30°
∴ ∠BAC = `square`
∴ ∆ABC is 30° – 60° – 90° triangle
∴ In ∆ABC by property of 30° – 60° – 90° triangle.
∴ AB = `1/2` AC and `square` = `sqrt(3)/2` AC
∴ `square` = `1/2 xx 12` and BC = `sqrt(3)/2 xx 12`
∴ `square` = 6 and BC = `6sqrt(3)`
A right-angled triangle may have all sides equal.
