Question : If in a triangle ABC, BE and CF are two medians perpendicular to each other and if AB = 19 cm and AC = 22 cm then the length of BC is:
Option 1: 19.5 cm
Option 2: 26 cm
Option 3: 20.5 cm
Option 4: 13 cm
Correct Answer: 13 cm
Solution : Given: AB = 19 cm, AC = 22 cm BE and CF are perpendicular to each other. We know that AB2 + AC2 = 5(BC)2 ⇒ 192 + 222 = 5(BC)2 ⇒ 361 + 484 = 5(BC)2 ⇒ 845 = 5(BC)2 ⇒ (BC)2 = 169 ⇒ BC = 13 cm Hence, the correct answer is 13 cm.
