In figure, if ∠BAC =90° and AD⊥BC. Then,

(a) BD.CD = BZC² (b) AB.AC = BC² (c) BD.CD=AD² (d) AB.AC =AD²

NCERT Exemplar Solutions Class 10 Maths Chapter 6 Ex. 6.1-1

Solution:

c) BD.CD=AD²

Clarification:

From ∆ADB and ∆ADC,

As indicated by the inquiry, we have,

\[\begin{array}{*{35}{l}}

   ~  \\

   \angle D\text{ }=\angle D\text{ }=\text{ }90{}^\circ (\because AD\bot BC)  \\

\end{array}\]

\[\angle DBA\text{ }=\angle DAC\text{ }[each\text{ }point\text{ }=\text{ }90{}^\circ -\angle C]\]

Utilizing AAA closeness standards,

\[ADB\sim ADC\]

\[BD/AD\text{ }=\text{ }AD/CD\]

\[BD.CD\text{ }=\text{ }AD2\]
