Problem

In △LMN\triangle LMN, ∠L=90∘\angle L = 90^\circ, LN=25 cmLN = 25\,\text{cm} and LM=15 cmLM = 15\,\text{cm}. In △XYZ\triangle XYZ, ∠X=90∘\angle X = 90^\circ, XZ=25 cmXZ = 25\,\text{cm} and XY=15 cmXY = 15\,\text{cm}. Use this information to answer the questions below. (i) Decide whether △LMN\triangle LMN and △XYZ\triangle XYZ are congruent. State the appropriate criterion. (ii) State which side of △LMN\triangle LMN corresponds to side YZYZ of △XYZ\triangle XYZ and write their common length. (iii) Calculate the length MNMN.
