Why is it necessary for Christ to be both God and man?

Answered in 2 sources

Christ must be both God and man to serve as an effective mediator between God and humanity.

It is essential for Christ to embody both natures because, as God, He possesses the authority and capability to satisfy divine justice, and as man, He can represent humanity in the work of redemption. This dual nature allows Him to bridge the gap caused by sin, enabling Him to intercede for us. The doctrine of the Trinity emphasizes that this union is not merely symbolic but is the foundation upon which our salvation rests. Hence, we can trust that Christ completely fulfills His role as our mediator, understanding the human condition while upholding divine righteousness.
