In triangle ABC, angle ABC = 90 °, BD parallel to AC, AD = 12 cm. CD = 16 cm. Find AB, BC, BD , cos A, tg C.

Since BD the height of triangle ABC is drawn to the hypotenuse, then BD ^ 2 = AD * CD = 12 * 16 = 192.

ВD = 8 * √3 cm.

In a right-angled triangle ABD, according to the Pythagorean theorem, AB ^ 2 = BD ^ 2 + AD ^ 2 = 192 + 144 = 336.

AB = 4 * √21 cm.

In a right-angled triangle BCD, according to the Pythagorean theorem, BC ^ 2 = BD ^ 2 + CD ^ 2 = 192 + 256 = 448.

BC = 8 * √7 cm.

AC = AD + CD = 12 + 16 = 28 cm.

CosBAC = AB / AC = 4 * √21 / 28 = √21 / 7.

tgACB = AB / BC = 4 * √21 / 8 * √7 = √3 * √7 / 2 * √7 = √3 / 2.

Answer: AB = 4 * √21 cm, BC = 8 * √7 cm, BD = 8 * √3 cm, CosBAC = √21 / 7, tgACB = √3 / 2.
