Answer:
Question:--
ABCD is a quadrilateral in which AP and CQ are perpendicular to diagonal BD and AP = CQ. Prove that BD bisects AC.
Answer :---
Name the point as F as shown in figure.
Now ,
in triangle APF and CQF :-
AP = CQ { given }
Angle P = Angle Q { each 90°}
Angle F = Angle F { Vertically opposite
angle }
So , by AAS [ angle angle side ] criteria triangle APF and triangle CQF are congruent to each
other.
Therefore,
AF = CF by CPCT . { corresponding parts of
congruent triangle}
Hence , as AF = CF , BD bisects AC.
Sorry !!
