Solution

The correct option is C
2

Given that the figure formed by joining the points A(0, 0), B(0, a), D(2, a) and C(2, 0) is a square.

Clearly, AC is 2 units.

Now, all the sides of a square are equal.

Thus, square ABDC has sides of length 2 units each.

Therefore, AB is also 2 units.

a=2

Hence, the correct answer is option (c).
