Final answer:

We are given a right triangle and the lengths of two sides. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we can find the lengths of the remaining sides ml and km.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Δakl, m∠k=90°, ak=kl=2, m∈al, am=ml. We need to find ml and km.

Since ak=kl=2, and m∈akl=90°, Δakl is an isosceles right triangle.

Therefore, by the Pythagorean Theorem, we can find the lengths of ml and km:

  1. ml = √((2²)+(2²)) = √8 = 2.83
  2. km = √((2²)+(2²)) = √8 = 2.83
