If a+b+c=p and ab+bc+ca=q; find a2+b2+c2.
In the given figure, D is the midpoint of side BC and AE ⊥ BC. If BC = a, AC = b, AB = c, ED = x, AD = p and AE = h, prove that
(i) b2=p2+ax+a24
(ii) c2=p2−ax+a24
(iii) (b2+c2)=2p2+12a2
(iv) (b2−c2)=2ax
In Fig. 7.223, D is the mid-point of side BC and AE⊥BC. If BC = a AC=b, AB=c, ED=z, AD = p and AE =h, prove that:
(i) b2=p2+ax+a24 (ii) c2=p2+ax+a24 (iii) b2+c2=2p2+a24
