a) Xét tam giác vuông ABC. Theo định lí pytago:
AC\(^2\)=AB\(^2\)+BC\(^2\)
= 9\(^2\)+12\(^2\)
=225
=> AC=15(cm)
Xét \(\Delta ABC\)và \(\Delta BHC\)có:
\(\widehat{ABC}\)=\(\widehat{BHC}\)(=90\(^0\))
\(\widehat{C}\) Chung
=> \(\Delta ABC\)~\(\Delta BHC\)(g.g)
=> \(\dfrac{AB}{BH}\)=\(\dfrac{AC}{BC}\)=>\(\dfrac{9}{BH}\)=\(\dfrac{12}{15}\)
=> BH=7,2(cm)
b) Theo câu a) \(\Delta ABC\)~\(\Delta BHC\)=> \(\dfrac{BC}{HC}\)=\(\dfrac{AC}{BC}\)=> BC\(^2\)=CH.AC
c)Xét \(\Delta AMB\)và \(\Delta BNC\) có:
\(\widehat{AMB}\)=\(\widehat{CNB}\)(=90\(^0\))
\(\widehat{B_1}\)=\(\widehat{C_1}\)(Cùng phụ với \(\widehat{B_4}\))
=> \(\Delta AMB\)~\(\Delta BNC\)(g.g)
=> Tỉ số đồng dạng là \(\dfrac{AB}{BC}\)=\(\dfrac{9}{12}\)=\(\dfrac{3}{4}\)
=> \(\dfrac{S_{AMB}}{S_{BNC}}\)=\(\left(\dfrac{3}{4}\right)^2\)=\(\dfrac{9}{16}\)
