Three rods of identical area of cross-section and made from the same metal form the sides of an isosceles triangle $A B C$, right angled at $B$. The points $A$ and $B$ are maintained at temperatures $T$ and $\sqrt{2} T$ respectively. In the steady state the temperature of the point $C$ is $T_C$. Assuming that only heat conduction takes place, $\frac{T_C}{T}$ is equal to
