∆ABC is an isosceles triangle and AB = AC = 2a unit, BC = a unit. Draw AD⊥ BC , and find the length of AD .
-
- √15 a unit
- √15 / 2 a unit
- √17 a unit
- √17 / 2 a unit
Correct Option: B
As per the given in question , we draw a figure of an isosceles triangle ABC
AB = AC = 2a units
BC = a units
BD = DC = | units | |

AD = √AB² - BD²
AD = √ | 4a² - | = √ | ||

AD = | a units | |
