Step-by-step explanation:Here is your answer,
Given: ABCD is a square, AC and BD are the two diagonals which intersect each other at O. Also, given that the angle bisector of ∠BAC meet BO at P and BC at Q.c
R.T.P: OP = \frac{1}{2}CQ
Proof:
The diagonal BD bisects∠ABC and ∠ABC =90 because angle of a square.
\angle{ABD}= \frac{1}{2}\angle{ ABC}= \frac{1}{2} imes90=45^o
The diagonal AC bisects∠BAD and ∠BAD =90 because angle of a square.
\angle{BAC}= \frac{1}{2}\angle{ BAD}= \frac{1}{2} imes90=45^o
AQ bisects ∠BAC
\angle{BAQ}= \frac{1}{2}\angle{ BAC}= \frac{1}{2} imes45=22.5^o
In ΔABP,
∠BAP = ∠BAQ =22.5 degrees ( Since A,P and Q lies on the same straight line)
∠ABP=∠ABD=45 degrees (Since B, P and D lies on the same straight line)
Sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
Therefore,
∠BAP +∠ABP +∠APB= 180
⇒ 22.5+45+∠APB= 180
⇒ 67.5+∠APB= 180
⇒ ∠APB= 180-67.5
⇒ ∠APB= 112.5
In ΔBPQ,
∠BPQ= 180-∠APB =180-112.5=67.5 ( Since ∠BPQ and ∠APB constitute a straight line, then ∠BPQ and ∠APB must be supplementary)
∠PBQ= ∠DBC=∠ABD =45 degrees (Since, BD bisects ∠ABC )
Sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
Therefore,
∠BPQ +∠PQB +∠BQP= 180
⇒ 67.5 + 45 +∠BQP= 180
⇒ 112.5+∠BQP= 180
⇒ ∠BQP= 180-112.5
⇒ ∠BQP= 67.5
Therefore,
∠BPQ = ∠BQP = 67.5 degrees
BQ is the side opposite to ∠BPQ
And, BP is the side opposite to ∠BQP
We know that sides opposite to equal angles are equal.
Then, BP = BQ......(i)
In ΔAOB, AP is the angle bisector.
By, triangle angle bisector theorem, we have:
