Answer:
length of AC = 2.8cm
Step-by-step explanation:
given B = 90°, AB= BC= 2cm
the figure forms a right triangle.
In a right triangle the length of the 3rd side can be found using Pythagoras theorem. Pythagoras theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Here, since <B= 90°, the side opposite to the right angle is the hypotenuse. so AC = hypotenuse of the triangle.
Therefore, AC²= AB² +BC²
⇒AC² = 2²+2²
⇒AC²= 8
⇒AC=√8
Therefore, length of AC= 2.8 cm
