विकल्प
- \[\frac{13}{2}cm\]
- \[\frac{60}{13}cm\]
- \[\frac{13}{60}cm\]
- \[\frac{2\sqrt{15}}{13}cm\]
उत्तर
Given: In ΔABC, `∠ A = 90^o` AD ⊥ BC, AC = 12cm, and AB = 5cm.
To find: AD
We know that the ratio of areas of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of squares of their corresponding sides.
In ∆ACB and ∆ADC,
We got the result as `b`.
