उत्तर

AB = BC   ...[Given]

∴ ∠A = ∠C   ...[Isosceles triangle theorem]

Let ∠A = ∠C = x   ...(i)

In ∆ABC, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°   ...[Sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°]

∴ x + 90° + x = 180°   ...[From (i)]

∴ 2x = 180° − 90°

∴ 2x = 90°

∴ x = `90^circ/2` 

∴ x = 45°

∴ ∠BAC = ∠BCA = 45°

∴ ∆ABC is a 45° – 45° – 90° triangle.

∴ AB = BC = `1/sqrt(2) xx AC`   ...[Side opposite to 45°]

= `1/sqrt(2) xx 2sqrt(2)`

∴ `l` (AB) = 2 units
