Question

In the right triangle shown, AC = BCAC=BCA, C, equals, B, C and AB = 6AB=6A, B, equals, 6.

Answer 1

Answer:

$|AC|=|BC|=3\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle, the hypotenuse is always the longest side. Since AC = BC, AB is the Hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras theorem

$|AB|=6,|AC|=|BC|\\|AB|^2=|AC|^2+|BC|^2\\6^2=2|AC|^2\\36=2|AC|^2\\18=|AC|^2\\|AC|=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2} \\Therefore, |AC|=|BC|=3\sqrt{2}$
