Answer:

AC = 14.9

BC = 10.5

Explanation:

The triangle is a isosceles right triangle with ∠B = 90o, ∠A = ∠C = 45o.

Therefore AB = BC = 10.5

Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares on the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square on the hypotenuse, which is AC.

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

AC^2 = 2AB^2

AC^2 = 2(10.5)^2

AC^2 = 220.5

AC = √220.5 = 14.85 or 14.9
