Altitudes AA1 and BB1 are drawn in acute △ABC. Prove that A1C·BC=B1C·AC

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sophie [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See the attached figure which represents the problem.

As shown, AA₁ and BB₁ are the altitudes in acute △ABC.

△AA₁C is a right triangle at A₁

So, Cos x = adjacent/hypotenuse = A₁C/AC ⇒(1)

△BB₁C is a right triangle at B₁

So, Cos x = adjacent/hypotenuse = B₁C/BC ⇒(2)

From (1) and  (2)

∴  A₁C/AC = B₁C/BC

using scissors method

∴ A₁C · BC = B₁C · AC

What is the side of equilateral triangle is altitude is 10
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

11.55

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle is one which all it sides are equal.

10cm altitude means the height is 10cm.

Using Pythagoras theorem,

x² = 10² + (x/2)²

Assume that the side of the triangle is xcm

x² - x²/4 = 100

3x²/4 = 100

x = √(400/3)

x = 11.55cm

-5c/8 = 20 what is the value of c
lorasvet [3.4K]

Please try to follow me, as I demonstrate a method of solution. 
This could get complicated.  I'll try to go slowly, and you must
stop me if I do anything that's not clear.

Ready ?

You said that                    -5c/8  =    20

Multiply each side by  8:  -5c     =  160

Divide each side by  5 :   - c      =    32

Multiply each side by -1 :   c      =  -32
