Xét tam giác ABC vuông ta có:
\(BC=\sqrt{AB^2+AC^2}=\sqrt{24^2+10^2}=26\left(cm\right)\)
\(\left\{{}\begin{matrix}BH=\dfrac{AB^2}{BC}=\dfrac{10^2}{26}\approx4\left(cm\right)\\HC=\dfrac{AC^2}{BC}=\dfrac{24^2}{26}\approx22\left(cm\right)\end{matrix}\right.\)
Xét tam giác ABH vuông tại H áp dung Py-ta-go ta có:
\(\Rightarrow AH=\sqrt{AB^2-BH^2}=\sqrt{10^2-4^2}=2\sqrt{21}\left(cm\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow S_{ABC}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot AH\cdot BC=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot2\sqrt{21}\cdot26=26\sqrt{21}\left(cm^2\right)\)
Ta có :
\(BC^2=AB^2+AC^2\left(Pitago\right)\)
\(\Leftrightarrow BC^2=100+576=676\)
\(\Leftrightarrow BC=26\left(cm\right)\)
\(AB^2=BH.BC\Leftrightarrow BH=\dfrac{AB^2}{BC}=\dfrac{100}{26}=\dfrac{50}{13}\left(cm\right)\)
\(BC=BH-HC\)
\(\Leftrightarrow HC=BC-BH=26-\dfrac{50}{13}=\dfrac{288}{13}\left(cm\right)\)
\(AH^2=BH.HC=\dfrac{50}{13}.\dfrac{288}{13}=\dfrac{14400}{13^2}\)
\(\Leftrightarrow AH=\dfrac{120}{13}\left(cm\right)\)
\(S_{ABC}=\dfrac{1}{2}.AB.AC=\dfrac{1}{2}.10.24=120\left(cm^2\right)\)
Hoặc : \(S_{ABC}=\dfrac{1}{2}.AH.BC=\dfrac{1}{2}.\dfrac{120}{13}.26=120\left(cm^2\right)\)
