Answer: The length of AC is: " 2√2 units " .

Use the "Pythagorean theorem" (since this is a right triangle) to solve for the length of AC — which is represented by "c" :

a² + b² = c² ;

↔ c² = a² + b² ; Solve for "c" ;

Given: "a = 2 ; b = 2 " ;

→ c² = 2² + 2²

→ c² = 4 + 4 ;

→ c² = 8 ;

Take the "positive square root" of each side of the equation;
to isolate "c" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "c" ;

→ √(c²) = √8 ;

→ c = √8 ;

→ √8 = √4 * √2 = 2√2 .
