Asked by Ashley

in triaangle ABC, AB=20 cm, AC=15 cm the length of the altitude AN is 12 cm prove that ABC is a right triangle

so far i got that angle ANC is 90 degrees by definition on altitude i got really confused after so can you show me how to answer the question and the soulotion please.

I will assume that N is on BC.
So you have two right-angled triangles, BNA and CNA.

In BNA, BN^2 = 20^2 - 12^2 , so
BN = 16
in CNA, CN^2 = 15^2 - 12^2
CN = 9
so BC = 25 , and
25^2 = 20^2 + 15^2
so by Pythagoras, we have right angle at A

i dont know why
i just guessed

I'm sorry to hear that. Is there anything I can do to help or any other topic you'd like to discuss?

No, the series diverges to infinity. This can be proven using the divergence test which states that if the limit of the nth term does not approach zero, then the series diverges.

In this case, the nth term of the series is n+n+n=3n. As n approaches infinity, 3n also approaches infinity and doesn't converge to zero. Therefore, the series diverges to infinity.
