Solution
The correct option is D Right angled isosceles If a square is cut diagonally, we will get two triangles.
And we know that square has all sides equal and all angles measure 90∘, so we get triangles whose two sides are equal and one of the angles equal to 90∘.
The third side is the diagonal of the square.
Hence, James will get two right-angled isosceles triangles.
