Question
From the given figure, if BD ⊥ AB, DC ⊥ AC, then find the relation between BD and DC.
- BD > DC
- BD < DC
- BD = DC
- BD ≠ DC
Hint:
BD and DC both have the same angle from horizon i.e they are equal.
The correct answer is: BD = DC
STEP BY STEP SOLUTION
From the given figure, if BD ⊥ AB, DC ⊥ AC,
Since BD is perpendicular to AB & DC is perpendicular to AC
their angle from the horizon are equal so BD=DC
