Step-by-step explanation:
As ∠ABC=90
So applying Pythagoras theorem in △ABC
AB^2 +BC^2 =AC^2 ........ (1)
Given: AD^2 =AB^2+BC^2+CD^2........ (2)
Substituting (1) in (2)
AD^2 =AC^2+CD^2
In △ACD , applying converse of Pythagoras theorem which states
that if the square of the length of the longest side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, then the triangle is a right triangle.
Hence ∠ACD=90
