King + 2 Bishops question!

So i can only give answer in either a, b or c.  This sounds more like a lawyers interogating in the Court of Law.

Opposite coloured bishop YES (a).  Otherwise NO (b).  If you still want answer in a, b & c.  I have no choice but to choose (c)!

Interesting that the answers differ, I wonder why no one responded b) yet.

b

b)yes in standard condition. That is both bishop different color. 

C

c, even if the bishops are on opposite colours.

Bishop takes something on g7. For instance, -1...Ng3-h5 0.Be1-c3+ Nh5-g7 1.Bc3xg7+.

Usual retroanalysis trick, easy to fall for !

Manudude02 -- that looks like an impossible position. What were the two previous moves that brought about that position?

White play Bh6 and check the Black King ón g7. Kh8 and Bg7+

B.

Can i phone a friend?

Nope.  You are out of life lines   ;)

@Bolan_Yongshi

Learn your tactics!

B, one cannot have two bishops on the same color (technically you can but it isn't a practical expectation) and if you want to go for the technical win underpromote to a knight if it's on the same color as your bishop. 

That's impossible because both bishops are in the same color. 

just like i said, the answer is b.

chessneon,  the quention asked is "Is it possible to mate with 2 bishops + king against the lone king of the opponent?"

In general one might think of the opposite coloured bishop.  However, this seems to be like a trick question as it did not state whether it is opposite colour bishop or not.  Anyway, lets say it is opposite colour bishop, it still can't be mated ALWAYS.  Just see comments no. 27 & 30 by manudude02 & vill0236. 

The answer (b) is Yes, always.  The KEY words always.  

Therefore your answer (b) is a wrong one no matter what!

JagdeepSingh, calm down.

Then open your eyes and read the comments in this thread.

Right.

is it possible to acheive this position?  white has 2 dark sq. bishops, 1 on c5 and 1 on d6 with white king on c6 and black king on a8?

I don't know. This could be.
