Answer:
Solution:
In the given right angled triangle, we have :
- Base ( BC ) = 5
- Hypotenuse ( AB ) = 6
- Perpendicular ( AC ) = ?
Using Pythagoras theorem:
➙ H ² = B² + P ²
➙ AB² = BC² + AC²
➙ 6² = 5² + AC²
➙ AC² = 6² - 5²
➙ AC² = 36 - 25
➙ AC² = 11
➙ AC = √ 11
➙ AC = 3.32
➲ More information:
- According to Pythagoras theorem,In a right angled triangle, the square of the Hypotenuse is equal to the sum of square of base and Perpendicular.
