The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the right-angled triangle and use trigonometric identities to find the angles based on the given condition. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Triangle**: Let the right-angled triangle be \( ABC \) with \( \angle C = 90^\circ \). Let \( AB \) be the hypotenuse, \( AC \) be the base, and \( BC \) be the height (perpendicular drawn from vertex \( C \) to hypotenuse \( AB \)). 2. **Given Condition**: We are given that the hypotenuse \( AB = 2\sqrt{2} \times BC \). Let \( BC = h \). Therefore, we can express the hypotenuse as: \[ AB = 2\sqrt{2}h \] 3. **Using the Area of the Triangle**: The area \( A \) of triangle \( ABC \) can be expressed in two ways: - Using the base and height: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times AC \times BC = \frac{1}{2} \times AC \times h \] - Using the hypotenuse and height: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times AB \times BC = \frac{1}{2} \times (2\sqrt{2}h) \times h = \sqrt{2}h^2 \] 4. **Equating the Areas**: Setting the two expressions for the area equal gives: \[ \frac{1}{2} \times AC \times h = \sqrt{2}h^2 \] Dividing both sides by \( h \) (assuming \( h \neq 0 \)): \[ \frac{1}{2} \times AC = \sqrt{2}h \] Thus, we can express \( AC \) as: \[ AC = 2\sqrt{2}h \] 5. **Finding Angles Using Trigonometric Ratios**: We can use the sine and cosine ratios to find the angles \( A \) and \( B \): - For angle \( A \): \[ \sin A = \frac{BC}{AB} = \frac{h}{2\sqrt{2}h} = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}} \quad \Rightarrow \quad A = \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}\right) \] - For angle \( B \): \[ \sin B = \frac{AC}{AB} = \frac{2\sqrt{2}h}{2\sqrt{2}h} = 1 \quad \Rightarrow \quad B = 90^\circ \] 6. **Finding the Other Angle**: Since the sum of angles in a triangle is \( 180^\circ \): \[ A + B + C = 180^\circ \quad \Rightarrow \quad A + 90^\circ + 0^\circ = 180^\circ \quad \Rightarrow \quad A = 90^\circ - B \] 7. **Final Angles**: The angles in triangle \( ABC \) are: - \( A = 45^\circ \) (or \( \frac{\pi}{4} \)) - \( B = 90^\circ \) (or \( \frac{\pi}{2} \)) - \( C = 45^\circ \) (or \( \frac{\pi}{4} \)) ### Final Answer: The other two angles in the triangle are \( 45^\circ \) and \( 45^\circ \).
