If in ∆ABC, DE || BC. AB = 3.6 cm, AC = 2.4 cm and AD = 2.1 cm then the length of AE is

विकल्प

  • 1.4 cm

  • 1.8 cm

  • 1.2 cm

  • 1.05 cm

MCQ

उत्तर

1.4 cm

Explanation;

Hint:

In ∆ABC and ADE

`"AB"/"AD" = "AC"/"AE" ⇒ 3.6/2.1 = 2.4/"AE"`

3.6 × AE = 2.4 × 2.1

AE = `(2.4 xx 2.1)/3.6 = (24 xx 21)/360`

AE = 1.4 cm

In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = 12 then complete the activity to show that whether the given triangle is right angled triangle or not.
*(l, m, n are opposite sides of ∠L, ∠M, ∠N respectively)

Activity: In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = `square`

∴ l2 = `square`, m2 = 169, n2 = 144.

∴ l2 + n2 = 25 + 144 = `square`

∴ `square` + l2 = m2

∴By Converse of Pythagoras theorem, ∆LMN is right angled triangle.
