Answer:
m = 10 , n = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
using the cosine and tangent ratio in the right triangle and the exact values
cos45° = and tan45° = 1 , then
cos45° = =
=
( cross- multiply )
m = 5 ×
= 5 × 2 = 10
-----------------------------------------
tan45° = =
= 1 , then
n = 5
Given that the triangles are similar.
When triangles are similar, all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
Similarly in the given triangles, the ratio of the corresponding sides are equal.
Cross multiplying, we get
Dividing both sides of the equation by -4.
So, we get
x = 7.
