Given:

In triangle ABC,

The angle C is a right angle.


\begin{gathered} \angle B=45^(\circ) \\ c=2 \end{gathered}

To solve:

The triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the given triangle has an angle of 45 degrees.

So, it is an isosceles right triangle.

By Pythagoras theorem,


\begin{gathered} a^2+b^2=c^2 \\ a^2+a^2=2^2 \\ 2a^2=4 \\ a^2=2 \\ a=√(2) \\ \therefore b=√(2) \end{gathered}

Thus, the length of the other two sides are


a=√(2),b=√(2)

Final answer:

The other side lengths of the triangle are both equal to,


√(2)
