Solve this sum

Q.  In the given figure, AD = 4 cm, BD = 3 cm & BC = 12 cm, find cot  θ .
 

Dear Student

GivenAD=4cmBD=3cmBC=12cmNow in ABD is righ triangle with AB as hypoteneuse AB2=AD2+BD2             =42+32              =16+9             =25AB=5cmFrom ABCand cotθ=adjacentopposite                =BCAB                 = 125

we find AB by pythagoras theorem   and we get AB = 5cm
​then,  In triangle ABC 
we get,
              cot theta = 12/5
