If the hypotenuse of right angled isosceles triangle is 2, what is the length of each of the other sides?
  • A.
    (sqrt{2})
  • B.
    (frac{1}{2})
  • C.
    22
  • D.
    1
  • E.
    2 – 1
Correct Answer: Option A
Explanation

45o = (frac{x}{2}), Since 45o = (frac{1}{sqrt{2}})
x = 2 x (frac{1}{sqrt{2}})
= (frac{2sqrt{2}}{2})
= (sqrt{2})
