Answer with explanation:

In ΔABC, Right Angled at B.

Draw , B D ⊥ AC

Also,1. ∠B DC≅∠A DB

2.∠B CA≅∠DCB

3.∠B AC≅∠BAD

4.∠D BC≅∠B AC

To Prove: →AB²+BC²=AC²

Solution:

In ΔABC and ΔB DC

B D ⊥ AC→→By Construction

∠ABC=∠BDC→→[Each being 90°]

∠ACB=∠DCB→→[Reflexive angles , →Reflexive Property of Congruence]

→→→ΔABC~ΔB DC→ [AA criterion for similarity]

When, triangles are similar,corresponding angles are equal and corresponding sides are proportional.

\frac{BC}{AC}=\frac{DC}{BC}

BC²=AC×DC            -------------------(1)

In ΔADB and ΔB AC

B D ⊥ AC→→By Construction

∠ABC=∠ADB→→[Each being 90°]

∠DAB=∠CAB→→[Reflexive angles , →Reflexive Property of Congruence]

→→→ΔADB~ΔB AC→ [AA criterion for similarity]

When, triangles are similar,corresponding angles are equal and corresponding sides are proportional.

\frac{BA}{AC}=\frac{DA}{BA}

 AB²=AC × AD     -------------------(2)

Adding (1) and (2), we get

AB²+BC²=AC × AD +AC × CD

AB²+BC²=AC ×(AD +CD)

AB²+BC²=AC × AC

AB²+BC²=AC²

Hence proved.
