Correct Answer: 45°
Solution : According to the question, Given : $ab = \frac{c^{2}}{2}$...............................(i) In $\triangle$ABC, Using Pythagoras theorem AC 2 = AB 2 + BC 2 ⇒ $c^{2} = a^{2}+b^{2}$ .................................. (ii) Put the value of $c^{2}$ in equation (i) $2ab = a^{2} + b^{2}$ ⇒ $a^{2} + b^{2} - 2ab = 0$ ⇒ $(a - b)^{2} = 0$ ⇒ $a - b = 0$ ⇒ $a = b$ $a = b$ means ABC is an isosceles right-angled triangle, ⇒ $\angle A$ = 45°, $\angle C$ = 45° Hence, the correct answer is 45°.
