Date Page Q3.- In A ABC, LB = 24C, D is a point on BC such that AD bisects LBAC and AB= CD. PT LBAC=72
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
In ΔABC, we have
∠B=2∠C or, ∠B=2y, where ∠C=y
AD is the bisector of ∠BAC. So, let ∠BAD=∠CAD=x
Let BP be the bisector of ∠ABC. Join PD.
In ΔBPC, we have
∠CBP=∠BCP=y⇒BP=PC
In Δ
′
s ABP and DCP, we have
∠ABP=∠DCP, we have
∠ABP=∠DCP=y
AB=DC [Given]
and, BP=PC [As proved above]
So, by SAS congruence criterion, we obtain
ΔABP≅ΔDCP
⇒∠BAP=∠CDP and AP=DP
⇒∠CDP=2x and ∠ADP=DAP=x [∴∠A=2x]
In ΔABD, we have
∠ADC=∠ABD+∠BAD⇒x+2x=2y+x⇒x=y
In ΔABC, we have
∠A+∠B+∠C=180
∘
⇒2x+2y+y=180
∘
⇒5x=180
∘
[∵x=y]
⇒x=36
∘
Hence, ∠BAC=2x=72

CORRECT QUESTION
In ∆ABC, ∠B = 2∠C, D is a point on BC such that AD bisects ∠BAC and AB= CD. Prove that ∠BAC = 72°
ANSWER
∠BAC = 72°
GIVEN
ABC is a triangle.
∠B = 2∠C
AD is the angle bisector of ∠BAC
AB = CD
TO FIND
To prove that ∠BAC = 72°
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the above problem as follows,
In ∆ABC,
∠B = 2∠C
Let,
∠B = 2y
∠C = y
AD is the angle bisector of ∠BAC, Ie., it divides the angle in two equal halves.
Let, ∠BAD = ∠CAD = x
and, ∠A= 2x
Let, BE be the angle bisector of ∠ABC, join DE.
Now,
In ∆BEC
∠CBE = ∠BCE = y
We know that if two angles in a triangle are equal, then the sides opposite to that side are also equal.
So,
BE = EC
In ∆'s ABE and DCE,
∠ABE = ∠DCE = y
It is given,
AB = DC
and, BE = EC
So, By SAS Congruence rule,
∆ABE ≅ ∆ DCE
∠BAE = ∠CDE
And, AE= DE
(∠A = 2x)
∠CDE = 2x and ∠ADE = ∠DAP = x
In ∆ABD
∠ADC = ∠ABD + ∠BAD
= x + 2x = 2y + x
So,
x= y
in ∆ABC
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
Putting the values, we have -
2x + 2y + y = 180°
Since, x = y
5x = 180°
x = 36.
So, ∠BAC = 2x = 2× 36= 72
Hence, ∠BAC = 72°. proved.
