if a bisector of a Vertical angle of a triangle bisect the base of a triangle then it is an isosceles triangle prove
Answers
Given:
In ∆ABC ,
AD bisects ∠BAC, & BD= CD
To Prove:
AB=AC
Construction:
Produce AD to E such that AD=DE & then join E to C.
Proof:
In ∆ADB & ∆EDC
AD= ED ( by construction)
∠ADB= ∠EDC. (vertically opposite angles (
BD= CD (given)
∆ADB congruent ∆EDC (by SAS)
Hence, ∠BAD=∠CED......(1) (CPCT)
∠BAD=∠CAD......(2). (given)
From eq.1 &2
∠CED =∠CAD......(3)
AB=CE (CPCT).......(4)
From eq 3 as proved that
∠CED=∠CAD
So we can say CA=CE......(5)
[SIDES OPPOSITE TO EQUAL ANGLES ARE EQUAL]
Hence, from eq 4 & 5
AB = AC
HENCE THE ∆ IS ISOSCELES..
================================
Assumption
∆PQR is Isosceles triangle
PQ = PR
Also,
Line PS bisect ∠QPR such that
∠QPS = ∠RPS
To Prove,
PS ⊥ QR also QS = SR
In ∆PQS and ∆ PRS
PQ = PR (Given)
∠QPS = ∠RPS (Given)
PS = PS (Common)
∆PQS ≅ ∆PRS (By SAS rule)
QS = SR (CPCT)
Also,
∠PSQ = ∠PSR (CPCT)
But,
∠PSR + ∠PSR = 180
∠PSR + ∠PSR = 90°
PS ⊥ QR
Hence,
PS ⊥ QR also QS = SR
