An altitude of a right triangle to its hypotenuse divides this hypotenuse into two segments that measure 9cm, and 16cm. What are

ozzi

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the length of the altitude, then from the given triangles, applying the basic proportionality theorem, we get

$\frac{BD}{AD}=\frac{DC}{BD}$

⇒ $(BD)^{2}=DC{\times}AD$

⇒ $(BD)^2=9{\times}16$

⇒ $BD=\sqrt{144}$

⇒ $BD=12 cm$

Thus, the length of altitude is: 12 cm.

Now, $\frac{AB}{AD}=\frac{AC}{AB}$

⇒ $(AB)^{2}=220$

⇒ $AB= 14.83 cm$

Also, $\frac{BC}{DC}\frac{AC}{BC}$

⇒ $(BC)^{2}=400$

⇒ $BC=20 cm$

Thus, the lengths of the legs of this triangle are 14.83 and 20 cm.
