Show that ΔABC, where A(–2, 0), B(2, 0), C(0, 2) and ΔPQR where P(–4, 0), Q(4, 0), R(0, 2) are similar triangles.
Prove that the area of an equilateral triangle described on one side of the square is equal to half the area of the equilateral triangle described on one of its diagonal.
Prove that, in a right triangle, the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.
Given: A right -angled triangle ABC in which ∠B = 90°
To Prove: (Hypotenuse)2 = (Base)2 + (perpendicular)2
i.e, AC2 = AB2 +BC2
Construction: From B draw BD ⊥ AC
Proof: In triangle ADB and ABC, we have
