The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \(\frac{\tan A}{\tan B}\) in triangle \(ABC\) where median \(AD\) is perpendicular to side \(AB\). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Triangle and Median**: - Let triangle \(ABC\) be such that \(AD\) is the median from vertex \(A\) to side \(BC\). - Since \(AD\) is perpendicular to \(AB\), we have \(\angle ADB = 90^\circ\). 2. **Labeling Angles**: - Let \(\angle A = A\), \(\angle B = B\), and \(\angle C = C\). - Since \(AD\) is perpendicular to \(AB\), we can denote \(\angle ADB = 90^\circ\). 3. **Using Angle Relationships**: - The angle at point \(D\) can be expressed in terms of angles \(A\) and \(B\): \[ \angle ADC = 90^\circ - B \] - The angle \(D\) can also be expressed as: \[ \angle DAB = A - 90^\circ \] 4. **Applying the M-N Theorem**: - According to the M-N theorem, if we consider the angles around point \(D\), we have: \[ \tan A = \frac{m}{n} \cot \theta \] where \(m\) and \(n\) are the segments created by the median on side \(BC\). 5. **Finding the Relationship**: - From the properties of triangles and the relationships of angles, we can derive: \[ \tan A = \frac{1}{\cot (90^\circ - B)} = \tan B \] - Thus, we can express: \[ \frac{\tan A}{\tan B} = \frac{1}{1} = 1 \] 6. **Final Result**: - Therefore, the value of \(\frac{\tan A}{\tan B}\) is: \[ \frac{\tan A}{\tan B} = 1 \]
