(a) The diagram shows triangle \(PQR\).
\(PQ = 4\) cm.
\(PR = 8\) cm.
Angle \(PQR = 90^\circ\).
\(PQ = 4\) cm.
\(PR = 8\) cm.
Angle \(PQR = 90^\circ\).

Diagram NOT accurately drawn
Calculate the value of \(x\).
(3)
(b) The diagram shows triangle \(LMN\).
\(MN = 12\) cm.
Angle \(LMN = 32^\circ\).
Angle \(MLN = 90^\circ\).
\(MN = 12\) cm.
Angle \(LMN = 32^\circ\).
Angle \(MLN = 90^\circ\).

Diagram NOT accurately drawn
Calculate the length of \(ML\).
Give your answer correct to 3 significant figures.
