a, xét \(\Delta ABC\left(\widehat{BAC}=90^o\right)\) có \(AM\) là đường cao
\(BC^2=AB^2+AC^2\left(pytago\right)\Leftrightarrow BC=\sqrt{12^2+16^2}=20\left(cm\right)\)
\(sinABC=\dfrac{AC}{BC}=\dfrac{16}{20}\Rightarrow\widehat{ABC}\approx53^o8'\)
\(sinACB=\dfrac{AB}{BC}=\dfrac{12}{20}\Rightarrow\widehat{ACB}\approx32^o52'\)
\(AB^2=BM.BC\Rightarrow BM=\dfrac{AB^2}{BC}=\dfrac{12^2}{20}=7,2\left(cm\right)\)
b, Xét \(\Delta ABM\left(\widehat{AMB}=90^o\right)\) có \(AE\perp AB\)
\(AB^2=BM^2+AM^2\left(pytago\right)\Leftrightarrow AM=\sqrt{20^2-7,2^2}=\dfrac{16\sqrt{34}}{5}\left(cm\right)\)
\(AM^2=AE.AB\) (hệ thức lượng trong tam giác vuông)\(\left(1\right)\)
c, Xét \(\Delta AMC\left(\widehat{AMC}=90^o\right)\)
\(AC^2=AM^2+MC^2\left(pytago\right)\Leftrightarrow AM^2=AC^2-MC^2\left(2\right)\)
\(\left(1\right)\left(2\right)\Rightarrow AE.AB=AC^2-MC^2\left(đpcm\right)\)
