Draw BE ⊥ AC. and DF ⊥ AC.
Ar(ΔABC) = Ar(ΔADC)
1/2 * AC * BE = 1/2 * AC * DF => BE = DF
Let AC and BD intersect at O.
compare ΔOBE and ΔODC.
∠BOE = ∠DFC = vertically opposite angles
∠BEO = ∠DFO = 90°
Hence, the two triangles are similar.
As BE = DF, both triangles are congruent.
So BO = OD . Hence AC bisects BD.
