Triangle ABC is a right angled triangle. D and E are mid points of AB and BC respectively. Read
the following statements.
I. AE = 19
II. CD = 22
III. Angle B is a right angle.
Which of the following statements would be sufficient to determine the length of AC?
ABC is right angled triangle. D and E are mid points of AB and BC respectively.
As it is not given that which angle is 90°. So we need statement (III) to find the value of AC.
Whereas using statement (I) & (II) alone, we cannot find the value of AC.
But using all the three statements. We can find value of $$(AB)^2 + (BC)^2$$.
Hence, the value of $$AC = \sqrt{(AB)^2 + (BC)^2}$$ using Pythagoras Theorem.
=> Ans - (E) : All statements are required.
