If sides of a right angle triangle are in A.P., then sides are proportional to

A

1 : 2 : 3

B

2 : 3 : 4

C

3 : 4 : 5

D

4 : 5 : 6

Answer

3 : 4 : 5

Explanation

Solution

(a + d)2 = (1)2 + (a – d)2 2ad = a2 – 2ad

4ad = a2 ̃ a=4 d\mathrm { a } = 4 \mathrm {~d}

a – d : a : a + d, 4d – d : 4d : 4d + d

3d : 4d : 5d ̃ 3 : 4 : 5
