IX Proof of Heron’s formula

Let a, b, c are length of the sides and h is height to side of length c  of ∆  ABC.
We have S = (a + b + c)/2
So, 2s = a + b + c 
 Þ  2(s - a) = - a + b + c 
Þ  2(s - b) = a - b + c 
Þ  2(s - c) = a + b – c
Let p + q = c as indicated.
Then,   h2 =  a2 - p2       -------------(1)
 Also,   h2 = b2 - q 2       -------------- (ii)
From (i) and (ii)
  Þ  a2 - p2     =   b2 -  q 2       
   Þ  q2   = - a2 + p2 + b2      
Since,   q = c - p  Þ q2 = (c-p)2 Þ q2  = c+ p2 -2pc
Then, c+ p2 -2pc   = - a2 + p2 + b2      
Þ - 2pc  =  - a2 +b2 – c= - ( a2 -b2 + c2)
Þ   p = ( a2 -b2 + c2)/2c
Now, Put this value of p in equation (i)
h2    =   a2 -  p2     
h2      =   ( a – p ) ( a + p )
h2   =    {a – ( a2 -b2 + c2)/2c }   {a + ( a2 -b2 + c2)/2c }
h2   =   {(2ac - a2 + b2 - c2)/2c}x{(2ac+ a2 - b2 + c2)/2c}
h2      = {(b– (a - c)2 }{(a + c)2 – b2}/4c2
h2     = {(b – a + c) (b + a - c)}{(a + c + b)(a + c – b )
h2 = { 2(s - a) x 2(s - c)  x 2s x2(s - b)}/4c2
h2 = 4 s (s - a) x (s - c) x(s - b)}/c2
h = 2/c   s (s - a) x (s - b) x(s - c) 
½ h c =  s (s - a) x (s - b) x(s - c) 
Area of triangle =  s (s - a) x (s - b) x(s - c)

Factor and reminder theorem :Polynomial class IX


Proof of this factor theorem
Let p(x) be a polynomial of degree greater than or equal to one and a be areal number such that p(a) = 0. Then, we have to show that (x – a) is a factor of p(x).
Let q(x) be the quotient when p(x) is divided by (x – a).
By remainder theorem
Dividend = Divisor x Quotient + Remainder
p(x) = (x – a) x q(x) + p(a) [Remainder theorem]
p(x) = (x – a) x q(x) [p(a) = 0]
(x – a) is a factor of p(x)
Conversely, let (x – a) be a factor of p(x). Then we have to prove that p(a) = 0
Now,     (x – a) is a factor of p(x)
p(x), when divided by (x – a) gives remainder zero. But, by the remainder theorem, p(x) when divided by (x – a) gives the remainder equal to p(a). p(a) = 0
Proof of remainder theorem.
Let q(x) be the quotient and r(x) be the remainder obtained when the polynomial p(x) is divided by (xa).
Then, p(x) = (xaq(x) + r(x), where r(x) = 0 or some constant.
Let r(x) = c, where c is some constant. Then
p(x) = (xaq(x) + c
Putting x = a in p(x) = (xaq(x) + c, we get
p(a) = (a–a) q(a) + c
p(a) = 0 x q(a) + c p(a) = c
This shows that the remainder is p(a) when p(x) is divided by (xa).
