abc is an isosceles triangle inscribed in a circle and AB=AC the bisector of angle B and angle C meet the the circumference at X and Y respectively prove that BY= AX
Answers
Given : abc is an isosceles triangle inscribed in a circle and AB=AC the bisector of angle B and angle C meet the the circumference at X and Y respectively
To find : BY = AX
BX = CY
Solution:
ΔABC is isosceles triangle
AB = AC
=> ∠B = ∠C
BX bisector of angle B
=> ∠ABX = ∠B/2
CY is bisector of angle C
=> ∠BCY = ∠C/2
∠B = ∠C
=> ∠ABX = ∠BCY
=> AX = BY
chord subtending equal angles are congruent .
