<h3>Answer</h3>

leg MN of both triangle is equal.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation</h3>

HL stands for "Hypotenuse, Leg" (the longest side of a right-angled triangle is called the "hypotenuse", the other two sides are called 'legs', or 'base' and 'height'.

It means we have two right-angled triangles with

  1. the same length of hypotenuse
  2. the same length for one of the other two legs

Since ∠ LMN and ∠KMN are right angle , the hypotenuse LN and and one leg LN of one right-angled triangle LMN are equal to the corresponding hypotenuse KN and leg MN of another right-angled triangle MKN, hence the two triangles are congruent.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

∠LMN is a right angle

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

If we want to prove that two right triangles are congruent by knowing that the corresponding hypotenuses and one leg are congruent, we begin as follows:

  • Since two legs are congruent and we know this by the hash marks, then the triangle ΔLKN is isosceles.
  • By definition LN ≅ NK
  • If ∠LMN is a right angle, then MN is the altitude of triangle ΔLKN
  • Also MN is the bisector of LK, so KM ≅ ML
  • So we have two right triangles ΔLMN and ΔKM having the same lengths of corresponding sides
  • In conclusion, ΔLMN ≅ ΔKMN

Please help ٩(๑òωó๑)۶​

Answer:

Height of the cliff = 13.66 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the cliff is 'x' m and distance between the base of the cliff and the boat is 'y' m.

From right triangle AOC,

tan 30° = \frac{\text{Opposite triangle}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{x}{y}

y = x\sqrt{3} ------(1)

From right angle triangle BOC,

tan 45° = \frac{x}{y-10}

1=\frac{x}{y-10}

x = y - 10

y = x + 10 -------(2)

From equations (1) and (2),

x\sqrt{3}=x+10

x(\sqrt{3}-1)=10

x=\frac{10}{\sqrt{3}-1 }

x = 13.66 m

Therefore, height of the cliff is 13.66 m.
