Direction: Q. 26 to 30 |
Two buildings I and II are of heights \[\text{19 m}\] and \[\text{4}0\text{ m}\] respectively \[20\text{ m}\] apart. |
Based on the above information, give the answer of the following questions: |
A) Similarity of triangles
B) Converse of Pythagoras Theorem
C) Thales Theorem
D) Pythagoras Theorem
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
The distance between the top of buildings I and II can be found by using Pythagoras Theorem which states that "In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides. |
Given a right angled triangle ABC, right-angled at C |
Then, \[A{{B}^{2}}=A{{C}^{2}}+B{{C}^{2}}\] |
So, option [d] is correct. |
