For Matching Two Impedances where Z1 > Z2   Matched, use a resistor , RL in series with the smaller
impedance such that
 
 
  If the smaller impedance only is to be matched, use a
resistor RS in shunt across the larger impedance such that
Where Only One Impedance is to be Matched  
If the larger impedance only is to be   Here also
