उत्तर

Let, the sides of the triangle be, x: `sqrt2`x and x.

AB2 + BC2 = x2 +x2 = 2x2

AC2 = `(sqrt2 x)^2` = 2x2

AB2 + BC2 = AC2 

Conversely, if in any triangle, the square on the largest side of the triangle is equal to the sum of the squares on remaining two sides, then the triangle is a right-angled triangle and the angle opposite to the largest side is a right-angle.

Therefore, Δ ABC is a right-angled triangle.
