ABC is a right angle triangle. D is the point on AB such that AD=3DB. AC=2DB and angle A=90.

Show that sinC=k/square root 20, where k is an interger. Write down the value of k.

DB=xAD=3xAB=AD+DB=3x+x=4xAC=2DB=2xhypotenuse=CBCB2=AB2+AC2=(4x)2+(2x)2=16x2+4x2=20x2CB=20x2=x20sin(C)=ABCB=4xx20=420So the value of k is 4
