How to Calculate the Geometric Mean in Triangles
Examples
Practice Questions:
- If an altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the hypotenuse into segments of \(5 \text{ cm}\) and \(20 \text{ cm}\), what is the length of the altitude?
- In a right triangle with a hypotenuse of \(13 \text{ cm}\) and one segment of \(5 \text{ cm}\), find the length of the leg adjacent to the \(5 \text{ cm}\) segment.
- \( h = \sqrt{5 \times 20} = \sqrt{100} = 10 \text{ cm}\).
- Leg length \(= \sqrt{13 \times 5} \approx 8.06 \text{ cm}\).
