10. In any triangle ABC, if the angle bisector of ZA and perpendicular bisector of BC
intersect, prove that they intersect on the circumcircle of the triangle ABC.
Answers
∠BAE=∠CAE {Angles inscribed in the same arc}
∴arc BE=arc CE
∴arc BE=arc CE∴ chord BE≅ chord CE ___(1)
(1)In △BDE and △CDE,
(1)In △BDE and △CDE, BE=CE {from (1)}
BD=CD {ED is perpendicular bisector of BC}
DE=DE {common side}
∴△BDE≅△CDE {SSS test of congruence}
⇒∠BDE=∠CDE {C.P.C.T}
Also, ∠BDE+∠CDE=180∘ {angles in linear pair}
∴ ∠BDE = ∠CDE = 90∘
90∘
90∘ Therefore, DE is the right bisector of BC.
