if AB = AC
AB² = 2AC²
AB² = AC² + AC²
AB² = AB² + AC² (CAUSE AB = AC)
SO, ACCORDING TO THE PYTHAGORAS REVERSE THEOREM
ANGLE C = 90°
AB² = 2AC²
AB² = AC² + AC²
AB² = AB² + AC² (CAUSE AB = AC)
SO, ACCORDING TO THE PYTHAGORAS REVERSE THEOREM
ANGLE C = 90°

Answer: 90°
Step-by-step explanation:
given that
AB² = 2 AC²
it can be written as,
AB² = AC² + AC²
AB² = AB² + AC² ( ∵AB = AC)
it satisfy the pythagoras theorem.
so, according to reverse pythagoras theorem,
it means ΔABC is a right angle triangle.
and
∠ C = 90°
