To prove that \( AE^2 + BD^2 = AB^2 + DE^2 \) in triangle \( ABC \) right-angled at \( C \), where \( D \) and \( E \) are points on sides \( CA \) and \( CB \) respectively, we will use the Pythagorean theorem. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Right Triangle**: We have triangle \( ABC \) with \( C \) as the right angle. Therefore, by the Pythagorean theorem: \[ AB^2 = AC^2 + BC^2 \tag{1} ...
