Example :

If the median AD of a triangle ABC is perpendicular to AB, prove that tan A + 2tan B = 0.

Solution.

From the figure, we see that = 90 + B (as is external angle of ABD)

Now if we apply m-n rule in ABC, we get


(1 + 1) cot (90 + B) = 1. cot 90 1.cot (A 90)

2 tan B = cot (90 A)

2 tan B = tan A

tan A + 2 tan B = 0
Hence proved.

Let point D and E divides the base BC into three equal parts i.e. BD = DE = DC = d (Let) and
let , and be the angles subtended by BD, DE and EC respectively at their opposite vertex.

t 1 = tan, t2 = tan and t3 = tan


Now in ABC

BE : EC = 2d : d = 2 : 1

from m-n rule, we get


(2 + 1) cot = 2 cot ( + ) cot

3cot = 2 cot ( + ) cot


.........(i)

in ADC

DE : EC = x : x = 1 : 1

if we apply m-n rule in ADC, we get
