Seth is using the figure shown below to prove Pythagorean Theorem using triangle similarity: In the given triangle ABC, angle A is 90° and segment AD is perpendicular to segment BC.
The figure shows triangle ABC with right angle at A and segment AD. Point Dis on side BC.
Which of these could be a step to prove that BC2 = AB2 + AC2? (6 points)
By the cross product property, AB2 = BC multiplied by BD.
By the cross product property, AC2 = BC multiplied by BD.
By the cross product property, AC2 = BC multiplied by AD.
By the cross product property, AB2= BC multiplied by AD.
