Question

In the figure is a right triangle ABC with AC=10cm and AB=6cm, What is the height AB (Theorem of Pythagoras)​

Answer 1

8cm

Explanation:

Given-;

BC(base)=6cm

AC(hypotenuse)=10cm

To Find-:

AB(Perpendicular)=?

Solution-:

As we know that

Pythagoras Theorem=>H²=P²+B²

By using it

=>10²=P²+6²

=>100=P²+36

=>100-36=P²

=>64=P²

Therefore, the height of AB is 8cm.
