Answer :

☞ Length of MN is 16 cm.

Solution :

Given :

  • LM = 12 cm.
  • LN = 20 cm.
  • ∠M = 90°. Hence, Δ LMN is right angled triangle.

To Find :

  • Length of MN. { base}

[REFER TO THE ATTACHMENT]

It is given that Δ LMN is right angled triangle. So, we can find the length of its third using Pythagoras theorem :

\red\bigstar\boxed{H^2=P^2+B^2 }

here,

  • P = LM = 12 cm.
  • H = LN = 20 cm.
  • B = MN = ? (that we have to find)

So,

➠ LN²= LM² + MN²

Substituting the values ,

20² = 12² + MN²

➩ 400 = 144 + MN²

➩ 400 - 144 = MN²

➩ 256 = MN²

➩ MN = √256

 \implies \underline{\boxed{\sf \pink{MN = 16 cm }}}

Hence ,

Length of MN is 16 cm.
