    Direction: Q. 16 to 20
    Priyanshi's daughter is feeling hungry so she thought of eating something. She looked into the fridge and found some bread pieces. She decided to make a sandwich. She cut the piece of bread diagonally and found that it forms a right angled triangle, with sides \[\text{4 cm},\] \[\text{4}\sqrt{3}\text{ cm}\]and\[\text{8 cm}\].
    Based on the above information, give the answer of the following questions:
    The value of \[\angle M=\]

    A) \[30{}^\circ \]

    B) \[60{}^\circ \]

    C) \[45{}^\circ \]

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    We have,
    \[KL=4cm,\]      \[ML=4\sqrt{3}cm,\]                  \[KM=8cm\]
    \[\tan M=\frac{KL}{LM}=\frac{4}{4\sqrt{3}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\tan M=\tan 30{}^\circ \,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\angle M=30{}^\circ \]
    So, option [a] is correct.
