Answers
In the above question, it is given that ΔABC and ΔDBC are two isosceles triangles.
(i) ΔABD and ΔACD are similar by SSS congruency because:
AD = AD (It is the common arm)
AB = AC (Since ΔABC is isosceles)
BD = CD (Since ΔDBC is isosceles)
∴ ΔABD ΔACD.
(ii) ΔABP and ΔACP are similar as:
AP = AP (It is the common side)
PAB = PAC (by CPCT since ΔABD ΔACD)
AB = AC (Since ΔABC is isosceles)
So, ΔABP ΔACP by SAS congruency condition.
(iii) PAB = PAC by CPCT as ΔABD ΔACD.
AP bisects A. — (i)
Also, ΔBPD and ΔCPD are similar by SSS congruency as
PD = PD (It is the common side)
BD = CD (Since ΔDBC is isosceles.)
BP = CP (by CPCT as ΔABP ΔACP)
So, ΔBPD ΔCPD.
Thus, BDP = CDP by CPCT. — (ii)
Now by comparing (i) and (ii) it can be said that AP bisects A as well as D.
(iv) BPD = CPD (by CPCT as ΔBPD ΔCPD)
and BP = CP — (i)
also,
BPD +CPD = 180° (Since BC is a straight line.)
⇒ 2BPD = 180°
⇒ BPD = 90° —(ii)
Now, from equations (i) and (ii), it can be said that
AP is the perpendicular bisector of BC.

Answer:
"A common noun is the generic name for a person, place, or thing in a class or group. Unlike proper nouns, a common noun is not capitalized unless it either begins a sentence or appears in a title. ... All nouns name something, but proper nouns name them specifically. Common nouns do not."
