Answer:

let natural no be x

(x-20)=96/x

x²-20x-96=0

x²-24x+4x-96=0

x(x-24)+4(x-24)=0

(x-24)(x+4)=0

either

x=24

x=-4

Prove the diagonals of a square are perpendicular
zysi [14]

Answer:

Given :- ABCD is a square.

To proof :- AC = BD and AC ⊥ BD

Proof :- In △ ADB and △ BCA

AD = BC [ Sides of a square are equal ]

∠BAD = ∠ABC [ 90° each ]

AB = BA [ Common side ]

△ADB ≅ △BCA [ SAS congruency rule ]

⇒ AC = BD [ Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal ]

In △AOB and △AOD

OB = OD [ Square is also a parallelogram therefore, diagonal of parallelogram bisect each other ]

AB = AD [ Sides of a square are equal ]

AO = AO [ Common side ]

△AOB ≅ △ AOD [ SSS congruency rule ]

⇒ ∠AOB = ∠AOD [ Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal]

∠AOB + ∠AOD = 180° [ Linear pair ]

∠ AOB = ∠AOD = 90°

⇒ AO ⊥ BD

⇒ AC ⊥ BD

Hence proved, AC = BD and AC ⊥BD
