Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\sqrt{2}\) units

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given \(A(0,0), B(0,2) C(2,0)\), \(\overline{A C}\) is a horizontal line and \(\overline{A B}\) is a vertical line. Given, vertices of \(\triangle A B C\) are the vertices of right-angled triangle, right-angled at \(A\). In a rightangled triangle, \(A\) is orthocentre and…
