QUESTION :-
ABC is an issoseles triangle and angle B = 90°. Then show that AC² = 2 times AB
SOLUTION :-
Given that,
ABC is an isosceles triangle
angle B = 90°
By Pythagoras theorem
AC² = AB² + BC²
AC² = AB² + AB² (AC = BC)
AC² = 2AB²
Hence Proved

Correct Question :-
ABC is an issoseles triangle and angle B = 90°. Then show that AC² = 2 AB².
Given -
To prove -
AC² = 2AB²
Solution :-
Since, ∆ABC is an isosceles triangle
therefore, AB = BC
We know that
Two sides of isosceles triangle are equal.
By using Pythagoras theorem
Sum of square of two sides of a triangle is equal to square of third side.
In right triangle ABC
AC² = AB² + BC²
AC² = AB²+ AB² (since , AB = BC)
AC² = 2AB²
Hence proved
