Answer:

option D is true.

Explanation:

The right-angled triangle is shown.

From the right-angled triangle,

The angle Ф = 60°

We know that the trigonometric ratio

tan Ф = opposite / adjacent

  • opposite = 4
  • adjacent = n

Thus,

tan 60 = 4 / n

√3 = 4/n

n = 4/√3

Thus,

n = 4/√3

= (4 × √3) / (√3 × √3)

= 4√3 / 3

Thus,

n = 4√3 / 3

Using Pythagorean theorem

m = √n²+4²


m=\sqrt{\left(4\cdot (√(3))/(3)\right)^2+4^2}


m=\sqrt{(4^2)/(3)+4^2}


m=\sqrt{(64)/(3)}


m=(8)/(√(3))


m=(8√(3))/(3)

Thus,


  • m=(8√(3))/(3)
  • n = 4√3 / 3

Therefore, option D is true.
