Question

Question 7 (i)
In the figure, altitudes AD and CE of $Δ A B C$ intersect each other at the point P. Show that

(i) $Δ A E P \sim Δ C D P$

Open in App

Solution

(i) In $Δ A E P a n d Δ C D P$ ,
$∠ A E P = ∠ C D P (E a c h 90^{\circ})$
$∠ A P E = ∠ C P D$ (Vertically opposite angles)
Hence, by using AA similarity criterion,
$Δ A E P \sim Δ C D P$
