Exterior angle bisector theorem : The external bisector of an angle of a triangle divides the opposite side externally in the ratio of the sides containing the angle.
Given : A ΔABC, in which AD is the bisector of the exterior ∠A and intersects BC produced in D.
Prove that : BD / CD = AB / AC
Construction : Draw CE || DA meeting AB in E.
Statements Reasons
1) CE || DA 1) By construction
2) ∠1 = ∠3 2) Alternate interior
angle
3) ∠2 = ∠4 3) Corresponding angle
(CE ||DA and BK is a
transversal
4) AD is a
bisectorof ∠A. 4) Given
5) ∠1 = ∠2 5) Definition of angle
bisector
6) ∠3 = ∠4 6) Transitivity (from 2
and 4)
7) AE = AC 7) If angles are equal
then side opposite to
them are also equal
