If $$a$$ and $$b$$ are the lengths of the sides of a right angled triangle whose hypotenuse is 10 and whose area is 20, then the value of ($$a$$ + $$b$$)2 is
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
C
In right ΔABC,
a2 + b2 = 102 (by pt) . . . . (i)
Area ΔABC = $$\frac{1}{2}$$ ab = 20
ab = 40
(a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab
= 102 + 2(40)
= 180
a2 + b2 = 102 (by pt) . . . . (i)
Area ΔABC = $$\frac{1}{2}$$ ab = 20
ab = 40
(a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab
= 102 + 2(40)
= 180
