Answer:

The correct answer is B. 14.14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find out the measure of AC, this way because AC divides the square in two equal triangles:

AC is the hypotenuse of either Δ ABC or Δ ACD, which sides are 10 cm, therefore we have:

AC ² = Side₁²+ Side₂²

AC ² = 10²+ 10²

AC ² = 200

√AC ² = √200

AC = 14.14 cm

The correct answer is B. 14.14 cm
