Ответ:
The answer to this question is letter C) By segment addition, DC plus BD is equal to BC. Point D is located at the middle of segment BC. Therefore BC is just equal to BD plus DC.
Now we can prove BC2 = BA2+CA2 by using the Pythagorean theorem.
Ответ:
C.By segment addition, DC plus BD is equal to BC.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, ABC, angle A is 90° and segment AD is perpendicular to segment BC.
In triangles ADB and ABC,
Therefore,![\triangle ADB\sim \triangle ABC](/tpl/images/0480/2298/62261.png)
Therefore, BA/BD =BC/BA (By the property of similar triangles)
⇒
------- (1)
Similarly,![\triangle ADC\sim \triangle ABC](/tpl/images/0480/2298/31950.png)
⇒
--------(2)
After adding equation (1) and (2)
We get![BA^2+CA^2= BC.BD+ BC.CD](/tpl/images/0480/2298/92329.png)
