- A28°
- B62°
- C56°
- D76°
Step-by-Step Solution
(RHS: common), so too. In .
Answer: B) 62°
In △ABC, AB = AC (tick marks) and AD is perpendicular to BC. If ∠BAD = 28°, find ∠ACB.
Class 9Triangles (Congruence)Geometry — Triangles
Key idea: Inequalities in a triangle
**Property 1**: In a triangle, the side opposite the LARGER angle is LONGER. (Bigger angle stretches the opposite side.)
**Property 2**: Conversely, the angle opposite the longer side is larger.
**Property 3 (Triangle Inequality)**: The sum of any two sides of a triangle is GREATER than the third side.
This means three given lengths form a triangle ONLY IF each pair sums to more than the third.
Example: Can 2, 3, 6 form a triangle? Check: 2 + 3 = 5 < 6. NO.
**Property 2**: Conversely, the angle opposite the longer side is larger.
**Property 3 (Triangle Inequality)**: The sum of any two sides of a triangle is GREATER than the third side.
This means three given lengths form a triangle ONLY IF each pair sums to more than the third.
Example: Can 2, 3, 6 form a triangle? Check: 2 + 3 = 5 < 6. NO.
