A Correct answer
Explanation

Two bishops and a king can force checkmate against a lone king, provided the bishops are on opposite-colored squares. The bishops work together to control diagonals and cut off the escaping king while the friendly king delivers the checkmate in the corner. This endgame requires precise coordination but is a forced win.
