Answer:
Here's your solution ✌️
Given- AB=AD
DC=BC
To prove- AC is the perpendicular bisector of BD
Construction- Join AC and BD
Proof- In ∆ ADC and ∆ ABC
AD = AB. (Given)
DC = BC. (Given)
AC = AC. ( Common)
=>∆ ADC and ∆ ABC are congruent by SSS rule
Angle DAC = Angle BAC ( CPCT)
In ∆ AOD and ∆ AOB
AB = AD. (Given)
Angle DAC = Angle BAC. (Proved)
AO = AO. (Common)
=>.∆ AOD and ∆ AOB are congruent by SAS rule DO = BO. ( CPCT)
Angle AOD = Angle AOB (CPCT)
But,
Angle AOD + Angel AOB = 180°.
(Linear pair)
2 (Angle AOD) = 180°
Angle AOD = 180°/ 2
Angle AOD = Angle AOB = 90°
Similarly,
Angle DOC = Angle BOC = 90°
=> AC is the perpendicular bisector of BD
Hence Proved.
