If AD, BE and CF are the altitudes of AABC and semi-perimeter of AABC is 22 cm, then AD + BE + CF can be |
|
Answer» Answer: In right-angle triangles BCE and CBF, we have, BE = CF (given). Hence BCF and CBF are congruent, by RHS theorem. Comparing the triangles, we GET ∠B=∠C. This implies that AC = AB (sides opposite to EQUAL angles). Similarly, AD=BE⇒∠B=∠A ⇒AC=BC Together, we get AB=BC=ACor △ABC is equilateral. [henceproved] |
