    Directions: Q. 11 to 15
    Rohan wants to measure the distance of a pond during the visit to his native. He marks points A and B on the opposite edges of a pond as shown in the figure below. To find the distance between the points, he makes a right-angled triangle using rope connecting B with another point C are a distance of 12 m, connecting C to point D at a distance of 40 m from point C and the connecting D to the point A which at distance of 30 m from D such that \[\angle ADC=90{}^\circ \].
    Based on the above information, answer the following questions
    (i) Which property of geometry will be used to find the distance AC ?

    A) Similarity of triangles

    B) Thales Theorem

    C) Pythagoras Theorem

    D) Area of similar triangles

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    To find the distance AC in the given figure, we use Pythagoras theorem.
